Admirers of schlager music and expressive stage presence are certainly looking forward to the pre-Christmas meeting with Veselin Marinov. It has already been a long-standing tradition for the singer to have a concert in the National Palace of Culture before the Christmas holidays and this year his meeting with the audience will be on four consecutive evenings.

"To wake up next to me" is the title of the concerts in Sofia on November 25, 26, 27 and 28, and they are the climax of the series of 70 concerts in different cities across the country, where Veselin Marinov has been a guest throughout the year.


His concerts attract an audience of all ages. "There are all kinds of people and I try to pay attention to them not only because they love my songs, but they come together thanks to my songs," the singer said in one of his recent television interviews. He does not hide that like most sentimental and romantic people he prefers ballads and is proud that he has over 110 ballads in his 31 albums.
