Opening of the first weekend of the Pig Fair in Komatevo, Plovdiv.
For the second year in a row, I – the Butcher’s Wife – gather people around the embers with the “Pig Fair 🐽”. Three weekends in a row – 13th, 20th, and 27th of December 2025 – Komatevo will once again smell of burnt straw, fresh meat, and mulled rakia. We’ll singe pigs, raise toasts, and revive a tradition that once brought whole villages together around the fire.
