For the first time in the 40-year history of the audio-visual show "Tsarevgrad Tarnov - Sound and Light" in Veliko Tarnovo, its two versions will be shown in one day, the press center of the municipal administration has reported. 

In addition to the world-famous 16-minute program, the original first version, which was only shown a few times in 1985, will also be presented. This will happen on November 15 and all residents and guests of Veliko Tarnovo will be able to watch from the "Tsar Asen I" square in front of the medieval fortress. Saturday evening will begin with the first version of the show and will continue with the modern version, which has so far been watched by over 7 million viewers from 5 continents.

The date November 15 was not chosen by chance, as on this day 40 years ago, the fortress walls of Tsarevets Fortress shone with lights and lasers, accompanied by music and telling the story of the rise and fall of the Second Bulgarian Empire.
