On Bulgaria’s national day, 3 March, the initiative “Waking up with a horo dance” will bring together, for the 6th year running, Bulgarians in this country and around the world.

Thousands of Bulgarians from all corners of the planet plan to dance the horo simultaneously, to consolidate their Bulgarian roots, BNR-Varna reports. The initiative is organized by the Azbukari association and the “Bulgarians for Bulgaria” platform.

The organizers invite the participants to make a video of their horo dance, presenting who they are and where they come from, which they can post to the initiative’s Facebook page.
