The Black Box International Theatre and Dance Festival (Bulgarian: Международен фестивал за театър и съвременен танц „Черната кутия“) has taken place every spring in Plovdiv, Bulgaria since 2007.
The first edition of the festival in 2007 was hosted in the Hindliyan House-Museum in the Old town of Plovdiv.
[1][2] The festival's ninth edition in 2015, with its 600 applications for participation, is reportedly the first major cultural event which takes place after the official designation of Plovdiv as European Capital of Culture for the year 2019.
The festival is considered to be "one of the most valuable international events for theater and contemporary dance" that take place in Bulgaria.
