Citizens protesting against Boyko Borissov's government will gather for the 51st evening downtown Sofia to voice their dissatisfaction with the status-quo. After 9 pm, they will hold their traditional procession along the central boulevards of the city where they occupy three key crossroads with tent camps. 

Dissatisfied citizens from the counter-protest once again demanded that the blockades of junctions in the capital be lifted. They claim they collected more than 5,000 signatures in support of the counter-protest in just several days. At 8 pm, they gather in front of the major junction at Sitnyakovo Blvd. to prevent its blockade.
