- Svoboda Square
A Thursday evening on the square means folk music. On 2 July at 20:00 Svoboda Square hosts a horoteka, an open-air evening of Bulgarian chain dances.
What a horoteka is
The music is folk, the dance floor is the whole square, and there is one rule: you join the horo even if you do not know the steps. The person next to you will lead, and the rhythm does the rest. The evening suits all ages and is open to anyone passing through the square.
When again
The horotekas continue all month: 9, 16 and 23 July, always from 20:00 on Svoboda Square.

About the venue
Svoboda Square
Svoboda Square is the central square of Obzor. Columns from the Roman temple of Jupiter, Templum Iovis, stand on it, and the seaside promenade nearby is closed to cars. Events here happen in the open, with nobody checking tickets at a door, and most of the municipal summer programme is free. The car park on the square itself is by subscription; paid parking is by the Town Hall, along Ribarska Street, next to the Obzor Beach Resort and by the town stadium.
