Abstract: The text poses questions and tends to avoid unequivocal answers regarding: the phenomenon of nestinarstvo, considered an emblematic Bulgarian rite the differences between Nestinarian performance and Nestinarian rite; the hyperbolization, profanation and expropriation of firework by certain settlement and institutional communities; the denigration of the relationship between firework and tourism and the attempts to return it from the attraction to its authentic sacred form; the emergence of counter-profane fire-making in the village of Vizitsa in Strandzha by changing the authentic place and time of the rite.
