Boysun Bahori

Many local or provincial celebrations of spring take place in various parts of Uzbekistan. The biggest and perhaps the most culturally significant event is the Boysun Bahori. Held in mountainous Boysun in Surkhandarya Province, this festival dates back to pre-Islam times and features costumes, songs, dance performances, storytelling, and other local traditions which have withstood the test of time. This event is so steeped in the region history and culture that in 2001 UNESCO named the Boysun district as a Masterpiece of the Oral and Intangible Heritage of Humanity.

Shark Taronalari

Shark Taronalari is Uzbekistan international world music festival. First held in 1997 in Samarkand, the festival has attracted a growing number of performers and participants through the years. It usually takes place every summer. Folk singers who practice traditional musical genres such as uran khai (throat singing) and makom (sacred classical, melodic Uzbek music) come to the festival to perform alongside musicians from Europe and Asia.

Independence Day (September, 1st)

Held every September 1, Independence Day is the biggest national holiday as the entire country remembers the day of independence and sovereignty after a long era of Soviet occupation. Feasts and shows are held in many cities and towns. At the Alisher Navoiy National Park in Tashkent, the president addresses the nation, after which performances from the country singers and actors take place, along with a large fireworks display.
