Every year in the morning of first of July thousands of people from Bulgaria, Romania, Greece and other countries meet each other at Kamen Bryag in Yailata countryside on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast. Bulgarians call this event "Julaya" on the name of the song of Uriah Heep.
This summer the vocals of Uriah Heep John Lawton and his band meet the first July sunrise at 5h31’ AM performing the famous Uriah Heep song "July Morning" in a company of many fans waiting for the sun.
The event was a part of Kaliakra Rock Fest 2007 in Kavarna, where previous nights rock bands like Heaven and Hell, Motor Head, Manowar and BTR have their concerts.
The last night of the fest thousands of people came to join the July Morning Meeting after the Manowar concert in Kavarna. The event was amazing and the sunrise was wonderful.
The panorama was shot on the day of the preparation before the meeting (on 30th of June 2007). You can see the first people, who join "Julaya" at Kamen Bryag, building their tent camps and fireplaces.
