The first summer edition of the LUNAR festival - Sea of Lights - will start today on the southern Black Sea coast. From 1 to 4 August, it will transform the urban environment and captivating natural landmarks along the seashore through 3D mapping projections and light installations. The light show will take place from 9 p.m. to midnight in Tsarevo, Lozenets, Ahtopol, and Sinemorets.


A special surprise awaits the audience – the light installation Moonlit Night, the symbol of the festival, will float along the sea coast from Lozenets to Sinemorets, appearing each night by a different shore.


The LUNAR Festival of Lights is an independent private initiative of the Bulgarian visual effects studio MP-STUDIO. Its first summer edition is organised in partnership with the Municipality of Tsarevo and with the support of the Ministry of Tourism.
