What Unique Holiday Traditions in Bulgaria Should I Know About?

The majority of Bulgarian natives are born in Eastern Orthodox churches, and Christianity remains a symbol of identity within the society. The Church has retained its position, and many Bulgarian people celebrate religious holidays, baptisms, and church weddings. January, February, and March are filled with holiday celebrations and folklore traditions unique to Bulgaria.

If you’re looking to send a gift but are unsure where to start, we have created a list of our favorite unique holiday traditions in Bulgaria to help you surprise your lucky recipient. Remember that what you send is just as important as when you send it!
 

  • Christmas — Although Christmas isn’t necessarily a unique holiday tradition, it is an event that is widely celebrated in Bulgaria. Family units and extended families come together to exchange gifts and feast on traditional Bulgarian food and desserts. Sending a thoughtful Christmas gift to your loved ones during the festive season will never be a miss!
     
  • Jordanovden — Jordanovden is an annual religious event that is celebrated on the 6th of January. This traditional holiday is when Eastern Orthodox Christians celebrate the baptism of Jesus Christ in the Jordan River. The day includes a ritual whereby the priest drops a cross into a body of water, and unmarried men run into the ice-cold river to grab the cross. The folklore says that whoever comes out of the water with the cross is set to be married that year!
     
  • Todorovden — Todorovden, also known as St.Theodore’s Day, is celebrated on the first Saturday of Easter. On this day, Bulgarians pay tribute to the most important animal in their culture: the horse. From early morning, the townsmen begin grooming and preparing their horses for the horse races. Women make ritual bread and place handmade ornaments on the horse’s manes. This ritual has been carried out for hundreds of years and remains a proud part of Bulgarian culture and history.
     

How Are Birthdays Celebrated in Bulgaria?

Birthdays in Bulgaria are big events, and sending a birthday gift is a most welcome surprise! One of the key values in Bulgarian society is the family unit, and much of the culture is based around it. The families are generally close, and it is common for several generations to all be found under the same roof. Families tend to be extended and generally very close, so it’s no surprise that birthday parties are large and frequent!

Bulgarians celebrate both birthdays and name days. You might be asking yourself, what is a name day, and how is it different from birthdays? Name days are a special Bulgarian tradition that can sometimes be more important than actual birthdays! Bulgarian name days are based on the Eastern Orthodox Saint your parents named you after. For example, if your name is Alexander, you are named after Saint Alexander, whose Saints Day is November 23rd. Now here’s where it gets interesting! The gift-giving tradition for your name day is that the person who is celebrating their own name day is the one buying gifts, drinks, and sweet treats for their friends and family.

That’s right, on your name day, YOU have to buy everyone else presents. That’s not to say that you shouldn’t shower your loved ones with a thoughtful gift on their birthday or name day!
 

Are There Special Rules for Sending Business Gifts to Bulgaria?

Bulgaria is considered a pretty formal society, and retaining a sense of formality and professionalism in both business and social environments is important. People greet each other with formal and reserved modes of conduct. Relationship building is valued, so spend time getting to know your associates and clients before getting down to serious business.

When sending corporate gifts and business cards, addressing people by their titles or with Mr (“Gospodin”) / Mrs (“Gospozha”) followed by the surname is important. Remember that casual behavior may not be appreciated when considering your gift to a Bulgarian business associate or colleague. Always wait for the Bulgarian counterparts to determine when it is appropriate to become this informal.
 

What Are the Best Romantic Gifts to Send to Bulgaria?

For Bulgarians, gift-giving is more about the thought than the value of the gift. It is recommended to not give overly expensive gifts as this may cause embarrassment to the recipient. When sending a romantic gift to your loved one in Bulgaria, it’s best to keep it sweet and simple.

Think of an elegant bouquet with a bottle of wine or a box of their favorite chocolates. With Bulgaria’s snowy winters, we are sure your partner will appreciate a luxurious Spa Day! When picking a gift, consider your partner’s style or something that sparks a memory of a special moment in your relationship. Whether it’s their favorite scent captured in a perfume bottle or their birthstone in a piece of jewelry: remember it’s the thought behind your gift that makes it extra special!
 

What Are the Most Popular Things to Send to Bulgaria?

When considering a gift to send to Bulgaria, it is common to give flowers to the hostess and a bottle of liquor to the host. If you are choosing flowers, try and avoid lilies, gladiolas, and chrysanthemums, as these are used at funerals. Ensure that there is an odd number of stems, as even flower bouquets are only given on mourning days. If you are looking for the perfect gift for your loved one but are still trying to figure out where to start, remember that our 24/7 customer service team is on standby to answer any of your questions and concerns!
 

How to Write the Address for Delivery to Bulgaria

When it comes to writing an address for delivering a gift to Bulgaria, having the complete address is key. Especially for rural areas where knowing the province or sub-locality is what makes delivery possible. This is one of the many reasons why we require a local phone number for your recipient, to allow couriers to get in touch with them to verify key pieces of information. Below you’ll find the parts needed for your recipient’s address:

  • Recipient name
  • Street name and building number
  • Sub-locality, building name, apartment number, and other delivery information (if applicable)
  • Province (for rural addresses)
  • Postcode and locality
  • Country
     

A complete address for delivery will look something like this:

Jared Smith
Alexandria Road 22
1680 SOFIA
BULGARIA (REP.)


Other Gift-Giving Etiquette You Should Know

  • It is common for gifts to be opened when received.
  • Don’t show up empty-handed. It is Bulgarian custom to bring a present for the hostess or host. Giving a bottle of wine, liquor, chocolates, or flowers are great ideas.
  • Be cautious of your choice of flowers. Roses are a safe choice as they are Bulgaria’s national flower. Make sure that there are an odd number of stems. You only give an even number of flowers for sad occasions like funerals.
  • In Bulgaria, the oldest in the group is greeted first, served first, or offered the best gifts.
