Shumen Municipality also participated in the 41st edition of the largest international tourism exhibition in Bulgaria – “Vacation & SPA Expo”. The forum was held from March 9 to 11, 2025 in Sofia and is one of the leading events in the sector in our country.

The stand of the Municipal Enterprise “Tourism, Public Events and Attractions” of the Municipality of Shumen presented the opportunities for tourism in the city and the settlements in the region. The stand itself presented the Monument “Creators of the Bulgarian State” and was under the motto “Bulgaria Begins Here”. The municipal enterprise provided visitors with information about the portal  visitshumen.bg  and the activities of the Tourist Information Center, historical and architectural landmarks in the region, as well as companies providing tourist products and services.

Representatives from the Bulgarian-Romanian Chamber, as well as from the Bulgarian Association of Travel Agencies, various tour operators and travel agents visited the Municipality’s stand. Offers of tourist routes and tourist products on the territory of the Shumen Municipality were presented to them. The representatives of the Shumen stand met and established contacts with their colleagues from other municipalities and organizations.

The exhibition presents various structures providing services in the tourism sector, municipalities, tour operators, travel agencies, hotel and holiday complexes, accommodation facilities, tourism service providers, insurance companies, as well as lecturers in the field of tourism.

The forum participants were over 240 from 16 countries, including Bulgaria, India, China, Egypt, Greece, Spain, Turkey, Romania, and others.

The international tourism exhibition #TârguldeTurismalRomâniei #romexpo was held from 20.02. to 23.02.2025 in Bucharest.

Shumen was part of the national stand of the #MinistryofNaturism and actively presented local historical, cultural landmarks and attractions. Contacts were established with tour operators, municipalities and businesses, offering them an alternative, unique anddiverse tourism.

The #destinationShumen stand was colorful, and special representatives were Deputy Mayor Daniela Ruseva and a representative of the hotel business in the city.

More than 100 exhibitors in the tourism sector participated in the exhibition, but Bulgaria had by far the largest and most beautiful stand – with unique landscapes and countless live flowers that attracted attention with their beauty.

We thank the Ministry of Tourism for the kind hospitality!
