Friday will be warm, up to 23 degrees, but with wind up to 45 km/h. Saturday is for an umbrella, because the rain doesn't stop all day, and Sunday is dry and cool, from 5 to 12 degrees.
Friday evening: laughter on two stages
This evening at 19:00 two performances begin, and you have to choose one.
In the "Toncho Rusev" hall at the NHK Cultural Centre, actresses Militsa Gladnishka, Snezhina Petrova and Galya Petkova present the stand-up show "Women's Kingdom". Admission is free, so be there at least half an hour early if you want a seat closer to the stage. It is a good fit for a group of girlfriends.
The show is part of the second edition of the comedy and laughter festival "KALATA", which this year is dedicated to women in Bulgarian comedy. The festival continues until Sunday at the Youth International Centre, the NHK Cultural Centre and the Adriana Budevska Drama Theatre, with theatre and stand-up for children and adults. All events are free, and the "Kalata" programme day by day is collected in a separate article.
The other option is the State Puppet Theatre, where Theatre House "Milart" is a guest with "Chudomirshtini". Stefan Milkov plays all the characters from several of Chudomir's stories by himself, and the stories are told through the eyes of a young person today. It is suitable for couples and for anyone who remembers Chudomir from school.
If your afternoon is free, with this wind a museum is a better place than the seafront promenade. The Regional Historical Museum opens today, in the Archaeological Exposition, the exhibition "The Flame That Survived the Centuries". It displays ancient clay lamps and parts of medieval candlesticks, which show how people on the Black Sea coast lit their homes.
Saturday: a day for indoor halls
Last day for "We Stay..."
In the hall of the Burgas Artists' Society at 22 Aleksandrovska St., Saturday is the last day of Vlado Zapryanov's 35th solo exhibition. Most of the paintings are new and were painted specially for Burgas. The canvases show the sea, the wind, freedom and the sadness for the summer gone by.
Old Burgas at the Ethnographic Museum
Since Monday, the Ethnographic Museum has once again displayed the exhibition "The Burgas Woman in the 1930s and 1940s". There are photographs, paintings, dresses, fashion accessories and memories that show how the women of the city lived and dressed. The exhibition remains until the end of March, but a rainy Saturday is a good reason to bring your mother or grandmother.
Photographs of the sea and sport
In the "Hristo Fotev" hall you can see part of the seven photography exhibitions of "Photography Weeks – Burgas 2026". The authors are established photographers, young artists, teachers and graduates of the National Academy of Art, and the themes are the sea, life on the coast and sport.
With the kids
The surest place for little ones in the rain is the children's science centre "PlanetUm", where the exhibits can be touched and tried out. If your child likes theatre, check the "Kalata" programme for when the children's performances are on Saturday and Sunday.
Sunday: cold, but no rain
Gallery "Atelie" closes the exhibition "With Burgas in My Heart" on Sunday. It features works by 11 artists whose lives are connected to the city, among them Atanas Atanasov, Darina Peeva, Dimo Kolibarov, Elena Kaludova and Ivo Bistrichki. The paintings are from the "Sound and Colour" collection and were painted between 1999 and 2025.
Anyone who wants to get out of the city can go to Karnobat, less than an hour away by car. At the Bencho Obreshkov Art Gallery, 100 works by Atanas Zhekov are on display, paintings and graphics from various years, marking a century since his birth. The exhibition is open until 24 November, so there is time for next weekend too.
Families who want to hike can take a walk on Sunday to the Thracian sanctuary Beglik Tash near Primorsko, where huge rocks stand in the forest. After Saturday's rain the path will be muddy, so wear closed shoes and take a warm jacket, because even in the afternoon it won't be more than 12 degrees.
