The 36th edition of the Apollonia 2020 Arts Festival was one of the most anticipated events of the year.

For us, the M3 Communications Group, Inc. team, it is an honor for yet another year to be partners of the Festival, which for 36^th year in a row proved that the world need culture and was very exciting and successful.

Despite the different circumstances, the Festival brought together some of the most beloved local and international artists, such as Vladi Ampov - Grafa, The Foundationgroup, Lubo Kirov, Orlin Anastasov, the Russian pianist Larisa Gabitova and many others. The spectators enjoyed a number of concerts, theater and film productions, exhibitions and exciting cultural events.

Zhivko Petrov – one of the best and most popular jazz pianists opened Apollonia 2020 with an incomparable concert, and the talented Marius Kurkinski presented his anniversary one-man show “Marius at 50”. The stellar participation of the great Bulgarian bass Orlin Anastasov delighted the young performers who had the chance to participate in his master class and performed their own concert during the Festival.

Wonderful film premieres, such as Ivaylo Hristov's movie “Fear” and Adela Peeva's “Silence with Dignity”, were presented to the film lovers. The Oscar-nominated artist and director Teodor (Theo) Ushev presented his short films “Blind Vaisha” and “Physics of Sorrow”.

The super group “The Foundation” closed the six-day long Festival with an unforgettable concert, held under the stars in the magnificent town of Sozopol.
