Living Philippopolis
The fire and light show, which is in the Top 5 "Attractions of the Balkans" in the ranking of tourism and tourist animation for 2019 and 2020, 2021, comes to Plovdiv within the project "Living Philippopolis" on June 16. The troupe's main focus is combining historical stories and events with modern performance art with fire, lights, special effects, choreography and theatre. The artists, who are from all over Bulgaria, will entertain the audience on June 16 at 8 pm in the space next to the Roman Stadium.
The "Living Philippopolis" project, which will take place on 16 and 17 June, aims to unleash the cultural and historical potential of Plovdiv. The city is to be "revived" and turned into an attraction for amateur participants as well as for spectators and tourists. Within the project events Plovdiv will attract a diverse national and international audience, which will have a positive impact on tourism and the economy. Major public events are foreseen for the Philippopolis Forum, the Bishop's Basilica and the space next to the Central Post Office. Several other troupes are also involved in the project - Chigot, Dux Antica and Moss Majorum Ulpier Serdice.
Plovdiv audiences will also be immersed in the art of reenactments with the performance of the Serbian Beli Orlovi as part of the "Alive Philippopolis+" module, which brings together international participation in the forum.
The project "Alive Philippopolis - a portal for travel through time" is supported by the National Culture Fund, the Amateur Creativity `2022 program, and the Plovdiv 2019 Foundation. The organizer of the event is the Association for Historical Reenactments "Philippopolis".
