A Ceremony with the Participation of the "Galkynyş" National Equestrian Games Group Was Held in Turkmenabat

The "Galkynyş" national equestrian games group, currently on a creative tour of Turkmenistan's regions, visited the Lebap province. On February 23, three thousand people gathered at the "Türkmeniň ak öýi" (Turkmen’s White House) in Turkmenabat to watch the group's unique performances. This was reported by the "Türkmenistan" newspaper.

As noted in the report, during the event, the group visited the Lebap Province History and Local Lore Museum. The museum’s collection includes more than 200 artifacts related to horses, many of which date back centuries. The tour of the regional museum became one of the most impressive and memorable moments of the creative trip to the eastern region for the members of the famous group.

Shortly after, group members marched along Bitarap Turkmenistan Street in Turkmenabat. Musical celebrations took place along the way in front of specialized secondary school No. 39, the Seyitnazar Seydi State Music and Drama Theater, and the provincial library.

The white-domed "Türkmeniň ak öýi" building welcomed the glorious group with songs and music. The festivities began in the square in front of the building and continued at the entrance, where an exhibition featured works by local painters and sculptors dedicated to Turkmen horses.

Soon, the main ceremony began in the building's central hall. To a standing ovation, the group members brought the newly awarded international certificates onto the stage. This was followed by the group's performances.

As previously reported, in January 2026, the 48th International Circus Festival was held in Monte Carlo, Monaco, where the "Galkynyş" national equestrian games group was presented with international certificates from the World Circus Federation and the European Circus Association for their great contribution to circus art. In honor of this event, celebratory ceremonies were held in Arkadag and Ashgabat. Now, the group members are visiting the country's provinces to participate in celebrations of this success and perform their amazing equestrian games.
