The municipality of Breznik has started the preparations for the 18th "Surova" Masquerade Festival.

The event will take place on January 21 next year, the administration announced.

Masked groups from the region and the country can participate in it, adhering to the authenticity of the custom presented by them. 

The organizers remind that the deadline for submission of applications for registration in the festival is January 9, 2023. The order of appearance of the groups will be announced by January 18 on the website of the municipal administration.

The new regulation of the festival this year is that children under 3 years of age will not be allowed to participate.

"Surova" in Breznik does not have a competitive nature.

All masquerade groups receive a prize of one hundred BGN, a diploma and a statuette.

A cash prize of fifty BGN is awarded separately to the youngest and the oldest participant in the gorge.

Traditionally, the Survakar review in Breznik is held on Saturday, one week before the International Festival of Masquerade Games in Pernik.

It is a "dress rehearsal" for the local Survakar groups, BTA reported.
