“The impossible has been done in the last few months to see how to untie this knot. The most serious chance is for “Chernomorets” station. I think we could have a pretty good city stadium with adjacent pitches and a base that would generally solve the problems of several sports clubs. I hope that within a few months we will have development, we as a team in the administration are working hard to make this happen,” said Manol Todorov.
Regarding the “Tourism” resort, Todorov indicated that he expects a strong season, and reservations are currently 30% higher than last year.

“Lenny Kravitz’s guest appearance in Burgas is something the promoters have been trying to do for a long time. Lenny Kravitz is of an extremely high level and will put Sea Station on the map of the world’s biggest stars. I think he will drag his feet,” added Manol Todorov, who has been the deputy mayor of Burgas since November of this year. – immediately after the local elections.
