How is it possible to get ticket or réservation to follow the festival at the best
Thank you
Tickets for the festival can be bought at the information center in Kazanlak (it is at the city center), here is contact information for it: http://www.tourism.government.bg/en/kategorii/turisticheski-informacionni-centrove/kazanlak
All the events of the festival which happen in Kazanlak are free to enter, there are a few areas with chairs (for elderly people and guests of the municipality) please contact the information center whether you can reserve a seat there.
My personal advice is to buy tickets for the rose-picking ritual near Kazanlak (or if you prefer, attend one of the rose-picking rituals in nearby villages).
