AGP Executive Report

Last update: 7 hours ago

Tourism Policy Shock: Bulgaria’s Tourism Minister Ilin Dimitrov says the ministry he inherited is “deinstitutionalized” with “non-existent” funding, delays and expired contracts—then unveiled a 5-pillar Tourism Sector Development Programme focused on connectivity, faster visas, and upgrading training and staffing. Eurovision Afterglow: Sofia Mayor Vassil Terziev says the city is ready to host Eurovision 2027, while Culture Minister Evtim Miloshev points to Sofia Music Weeks as Bulgaria’s cultural showcase. Cheapest Summer Spotlight: TravelSupermarket crowns Bulgaria’s Bourgas area (and Sunny Beach) the cheapest all-inclusive destination for 2026, with Obzor Beach flagged as a quieter “Aegean dupe” around 25°C in June. Entry Rules Watch: Thailand tightens visa-free stays for 93+ countries to affect longer visits, while Bulgaria’s PM Radev pushes the U.S. for visa-free travel for Bulgarians. Safety & Nature: A Bulgarian tourist was helicopter-rescued in Romania after a 40m fall, and Bulgaria reported a rare bear fatality near Sofia. Culture Diplomacy: Bulgarian singer Ruth Koleva is selected for the EU-US Transatlantic Stars Music Program in Philadelphia, Washington and New York.
