Apart from the last two years, we’ll concentrate our efforts on saving Vitosha’s forest which is endangered since tornado blew out 400 hectares of forest in 2001. Since then the "Ips Typographus" beetle which is normally part of the ecosystem, has overpopulated, and destroyed more than 800 hectares of forest.
“Earthdance 2006 Sofia” starts a campaign to gather resources for resolving the problem and making this issue a hot topic for the society. All the money that the festival will gather will be given for reforestation under the supervision of “National Park Vitosha”.

Besides the music line up, workshops and seminars will take place, concerning topics of ecology, as well as music and photography studios.
Brochures will be distributed and info stands will be created at the festival site, which will help for a better understanding of the ecology problems of Vitosha.
At the current moment official support has been given from: Vesela Letcheva - consecutivedirector of ”The National Agency of Youth and Sports”, Sofia Municipality, National Park “Vitosha”, Regional Inspectorate of Eccology and Environmental Issues, “State Forestry Sofia”, and the following NGO’s “YartZ”, “Za Zemiata”, “Pazete Bulgaria Chista” and cultural centre”Green House”, as well as over thirty volunteers who stated their wish to join the team.
By internet connection “Earthdance Sofia” will be able to send and receive audio/video signal with the simultaneous happening parties worldwide. A website will be created specially for the
event, giving wide range of information about the event and the ecological campaign.
All precautions about environmental issues are being taken, with the supervision of the authorities, so that Vitosha Mountain will not be affected in any way. For the aim trash bins will be installed for separate junk collection. A massive campaign for cleaning the area will take place on 18, 19 and 20th of September with the support of a network of volunteers.
