Three unforgettable days. One stage. Hundreds of hearts beating in the rhythm of dreams.
The “Iskar” Cultural Center once again transformed into a home of light, talent, and inspiration during the international dance championship Dancing INN 2025 – an event that united Bulgaria and Europe in a shared celebration of art.

This year, the magic was stronger than ever. The dancers – children, teens, and young professionals – turned the stage into a place where time stops. Where emotion speaks. Where talent has no age.

⭐ Judge panel of Great Names and Even Greater Hearts

The evaluation was entrusted to true giants of the dance world, who elevated the event to an entirely new level:

✨Nikola Hadjitanev – Premier Soloist of the Sofia Opera and Ballet

✨Almira Osmanović – Prima Ballerina and current choreographer at the Croatian National Opera and Ballet – Zagreb

✨Margarita Georgieva -  Vaganova Academy of Russian Ballet

✨Filip Milanov, Valeri Milenkov – winners of the prestigious IKAR awards

✨Mina Vasileva and Radina Encheva – inspiring professionals and ambassadors of refined dance

Each of them faced the incredibly difficult task of selecting the best among the outstanding.
