So, how is it in Pirin River Ski, Fun & Family during Christmas? Carefree and fun, fun, fun....

Different countries and religions have different customs and traditions during the Christmas time, but all have something in common - Christmas is a family time, a celebration of love and togetherness that our family brings to each of us. That is why we leave it up to each family to celebrate their Christmas Eve on the 24th of December. Some of our guests prefer to order room-service. Some guests prefer to dine in our Restaurant. Some guests prefer to go out. According to Ortodox tradition no meat shall be eaten on the Christmas Eve, that is why our Restaurant offers this evening also especially made traditional dishes without meat. 

Then, on 25th of December we celebrate Christmas together. Yes, you guessed right - Party! Our Christmas Gala Dinner and Party became the highlight of our guests stay during this period. We have people who visit us during this time only because of our Gala. And not only because the special Christmas cocktails that we make especially for this occasion (on second thought, they would be definitely worth it.) Why? Because:

• the food is incredible - 5-course festive menu, including roasted turkey or mountain trout and local specialties
• the folklore program is captivating - local singers present you with a face of Bansko you have not seen yet
• live music and dancing - what to say? party, party, party till the morning
• Santa Claus bringing gifts for all children up to the age of 12 - everybody loves this part! makes us all wish we were 6 again....

The price for the Xmas Gala Dinner & Party (including also the gifts for children) is 60 EUR for 16 year-olds and older, 39 EUR for children aged 13-15, 30 EUR for children aged 7-12, 24 EUR for children aged 4-6, 18 EUR for children 2-3 and 9 EUR for babies.
