Bountiful supply of flour and baked products: Upcoming food fair in Tajikistan's capital city
Nur-Sultan, the capital city of Kazakhstan, may not be the location for an upcoming Agricultural Products and National Crafts Fair. Instead, the event is set to take place in the Sogdian region of Tajikistan on August 16-17, 2025.
This fair aims to support and develop entrepreneurship and international relations, offering a variety of high-quality products and crafts for purchase. Approximately 1,000 tons of agricultural products will be brought by Tajik entrepreneurs for sale, showcasing the rich agricultural bounty of the region.
The fair will also feature a lively Tajik bazaar, a significant aspect of Tajik culture, embodying the spirit of the East. At least 10 cauldrons for selling plov, a traditional Tajik dish, will be available, capable of selling at least 1 ton daily. Delicious Eastern dishes, including plov and flatbread, will be available for sale.
Visitors can also enjoy the unique atmosphere of an Eastern bazaar, as the fair provides an opportunity for residents and guests of the Sogdian region to experience this vibrant market. The fair is a showcase of Tajik culture, which has absorbed elements of Persian and Turkic traditions.
The fair will take place at the territory near "Barys Arena" from August 16, 11:00 to 19:00, and August 17, 10:00 to 19:00. For those interested in experiencing the rich culture and vibrant markets of Tajikistan, this fair promises to be an unforgettable event.
