III International "Lazgi" Festival Kicks Off in Khiva
Uzbekistan
Ancient Khiva has once again transformed into a global hub for choreographic art. In the heart of the historical Ichan-Kala complex, the grand opening of the III International Dance Festival "Lazgi" took place, bringing together participants from dozens of countries, UNESCO representatives, diplomats, and leading art historians.
Saida Mirziyoyeva attended the opening ceremony and read the official welcoming message from the President of Uzbekistan, Shavkat Mirziyoyev, to the forum's participants and guests. The message emphasized that the "Lazgi" dance stands as a visual symbol of Uzbek civilization. This unique art form, originating over three thousand years ago, has today transcended regional borders and confidently conquered the world's finest stages while preserving its pristine energy.
"Lazgi" is more than just a set of movements; it is the soul of the people expressed through dance and a bridge for dialogue between diverse cultures. The festival in Khiva aims not only to popularize this intangible heritage of humanity but also to create a platform for professional exchange among dance masters from around the globe. The event program includes vibrant open-air performances as well as scientific and practical conferences where experts discuss the preservation and development of ancient dance traditions in the modern world.
The launch of the third edition of the festival confirms Uzbekistan's status as a country that carefully cherishes its common roots and national identity, sharing them with the world through the universal language of art.
