The FIS Spring Conference is a great honor not only for the hotel and resort Golden Sands, but also for Bulgaria.
The event is one of the most important forums of the Ski Federation and is the first of its kind to be held in Bulgaria.
The right to organize it was granted to Bulgaria last summer at the FIS Congress in Barcelona, and the International Hotel Casino & Tower Suites was voted the best venue for such a large-scale event.
Among the undeniable advantages of the hotel is the conference center, which allows meetings to be held simultaneously in ten conference rooms.
The quality of the services and the international hotel’s readiness to host the Calendar conference were personally checked last August by FIS Secretary General Sarah Luis, who rated the hotel and its staff impeccably.
The folklore festival “Ethno-Rhythms – Golden Sands” has been held for the third time in a row, its goal was to preserve Bulgarian traditions, express and spread our spiritual and cultural heritage through music and dance, and popularize authentic Bulgarian folklore and folk dance art.
