On 24th May, Bulgaria celebrates the day of education, culture and the creation of the Slavonic alphabet by the two brothers, Saints Cyril and Methodius.
Bulgarians consider May 24th the most loved of all holidays. It is marked with festivities across the country. Local schools and cultural centres organise various events to honour the accomplishments of the two brothers, Saints Cyril and Methodius, including laying wreaths to monuments of the two saints, concerts and processions in the main streets of Bulgarian cities and towns.
The two brothers Cyril and Methodius created the Slavonic alphabet in the IX century. They are both regarded as the country’s patrons of education and culture. In 1980, Pope John Paul II declared them co-patron saints of Europe.
As a tradition on 24th May, members of the ‘Askeer Academy’ present the awards for best performances and outstanding achievements in the theatre art in Bulgaria.
