Studio 5 programme: November 17-30
Studio 5 is a different kind of place – far from being yet another cool and posh bar, it is above all a spiritual meeting point, one that sets trends, rather than following them.
The interior can only be described as cozy and the atmosphere stimulates creativity, spirituality and positive energy emanating from the stage – the single most important piece of the interior. It is a stage which welcomes talented musicians of all generations and styles and also many theatre plays, books, dance plays and films.
The cultural life of the club is favoured by its central location – the National Palace of Culture (NDK), at entrance A3. It is very easy to reach with public transport and it also has its own parking lot. However, the most important thing remains the human factor. The creators and hosts of Studio 5 are Hilda Kazassyan, Atanas Yankulov and Borislav Yotsov.
Entrance fees for events vary, but as a rule fall in the five to 10 leva range. Tickets can be bought at the NDK ticket booths, online at ticketstream.bg, eventim.bg or ticketplus.bg, as well as at the club on the day of the event. To book a place in advance, call 02/963 1254.
