The tickets will go on sale from February 1st and the prices are very reasonable – one-day ticket for adults is 35 leva, while the combined two-day pass is 55 leva. Kids and students can see the best skiers in the world for 20 and 30 leva respectively, but only if accompanied by an adult.

This remarkable celebration of winter sports at the highest level will become possible due to the hard work of more than 1000 people, the big sponsors and even 100 volunteers from Bulgaria, Greece and Great Britain. The organizers didn’t underestimate a single detail – even people who don’t have a chance to buy a ticket will be able to watch the races at four free zones along the slope.
