Qovun Sayli Held in Krasnoyarsk for the First Time
Uzbekistan
The Uzbek national festival Qovun Sayli was held in Krasnoyarsk for the first time, bringing together Uzbek compatriots, local residents and representatives of Central Asian countries. The large-scale cultural event was organised at the initiative of the Consulate General of Uzbekistan in Novosibirsk.
The festival gathered Uzbek nationals working at enterprises across the Krasnoyarsk region, along with numerous guests. Uzbekistan's Consul General Aslam Akbarov said Qovun Sayli reflects the diligence and craftsmanship of the Uzbek people, as well as their hospitality, warmth and humanity.
It was particularly noted that Krasnoyarsk is the only Russian city where the festival is held in this format. Organisers described the event as a symbol of unity among Uzbek compatriots abroad and their commitment to preserving national traditions far from their homeland.
Representatives of Krasnoyarsk's government and public organisations praised the richness and distinctive character of Uzbek culture and art. They also expressed readiness to support the Uzbek diaspora in preserving its history, traditions and cultural identity.
A highlight of the programme was a performance by the Fantaziya Dance Theatre from Fergana, which showcased the beauty of Uzbek national choreography. Musicians Ulugbek Khoshimov and Nizomjon Vahobov performed traditional songs and melodies, demonstrating their mastery of the doira and tanbur.
The celebrations concluded with a gala concert at the House of Friendship of the Peoples of the Krasnoyarsk region. Performances by Uzbek artists received prolonged applause, bringing the first Qovun Sayli festival in Krasnoyarsk to a vibrant close.
