Boysun Bahori Festival 2027
Dates taking place: May 2027 (Dates TBA)
Location: Boysun Region of Surkhandarya, Uzbekistan
Imagine you are in an Uzbekistan's mountain village, where epic poets and storytellers are battling fire and breath (while boiling pilaf over an open fire) for the attention of an audience. It may seem like you have encountered a time machine, but really, you have just made an excellent choice to attend the Boysun Bahori Festival 2027.
What's in Store
Boysun isn't just any festival town. Located in southern Uzbekistan's steep and rugged terrains, remains a haven of pre-Islamic traditions. UNESCO recognized Boysun as a Masterpiece of Oral and Intangible Heritage in 2001. The festival came later in 2002, bringing this amazing location the attention it deserved after the UNESCO accolade. Don't be shy to mention this at your next dinner.

More Than Just Dancing (Though There Is Plenty of That)
Brace yourself for some shenanigans with your itinerary, because once you hit Padang village, the shenanigans begin. Folk groups swarm in from every corner of Central Asia and Uzbekistan. Just a sample of what you will see and hear: Folk musicians, bakhshi poets, and improvisers set up camp in real yurt camps and throw the most epic and energetic performances your ears will hear. What wouldn't be totally unfair. Since there will be national wrestling bouts, kite flying, traditional sports, and cycling marathons, storytelling will be in great demand. Just. Ever. Watch or participate.
The Food Situation (Critical Information)
Let us be honest: usually the food is the festival. At Boysun Bahori Festival 2027, the food actually is the festival. Lots of chefs cooking over open fires for pilaf, shurpa, lagman, and dymlyama. Yup. Craft stalls will be in yurt shops, with carpets and souvenirs. You might pretend you know something and haggle about weaving, like you know what the hell you're talking about. You will be sticking your fingers to your lips like a Turk at the bazaar; come hungry, and leave with a loosened belt.
Why You Should Go Right Now
