Since 2016, every summer Razlog has become a center of attraction for connoisseurs of the performing arts. The National Theater Festival "Stars of the Theater" is organized by the Razlog Municipality and "Nona PopArt", and the soul and inspirer of the festival is the actress Nona Yotova, who is also its artistic director. Over the years, the event has established itself as one of the most significant cultural events in Southwestern Bulgaria - a place where the most beloved Bulgarian actors and the most successful performances meet face to face with the audience under the Pirin sky.
Ten consecutive editions have built a tradition that is now part of the annals of Bulgarian theatrical art. In 2025, the festival celebrated its anniversary - the Tenth edition, and in 2026, the "Stars of the Theater" will rise for the eleventh time, opened with an official ceremony in the presence of the President of the Republic of Bulgaria, Iliana Yotova.
