Dear Members and Friends,

We would like to invite you to a very special 4th of July Independence Day celebration this year.

In 2026 the United States of America will celebrate its 250 anniversary – a quarter millennium! Sounds amazing right?

As usual, we will commemorate this occasion in the company of dear friends and colleagues, listening to great live music, drinking icy cool beer and refreshing Summer cocktails, eating delicious BBQ and tasty burgers. Children will entertain themselves at the Kids’ Corner, have ice cream, and go a little wild on the green grass of the Sofia Tech Park.

Sounds wonderful? Then stay tuned and keep reading our Weekly bulletins – more information is yet to be announced!
