The Bulgarian and Hungarian State Folk Ensembles, Márta Sebestyén, the Bulgarian Radio soloists, Ági Herczku, Nikola Parov and other distinguished artists have performed so far on Bulfest’s stage, not to mention all the upcoming guests appearing at future festivals so to amaze more spectators.



Each year since its foundation, the Jantra and Rositsa Groups have dedicated a whole night long performance to celebrate their anniversaries. The delightful birthday shows have been guaranteed by many guest artists who are also close friends with both groups. Beside the annually renewed repertoire, the audience could also enjoy the most popular performances of the Balkan culture. The birthday celebration formally became the Bulfest festival in 1999.
