Large-scale preparations are underway in Namangan ahead of the 65th International Flower Festival. It has been announced that nearly 5 million seasonal flowers are being planted across the city and districts for the event.
According to Egypt's Sada al-Balad publication, this traditional flower festival in Namangan was first organized in August 1961. Since 2018, it has held international status, welcoming guests and participants from various countries.
This year's festival marks the 65th anniversary. In recent years, the event has become recognized as a unique cultural brand not only in Uzbekistan but also on the international stage.

The process is being monitored by Guinness representatives, including Dubai-based expert Kanzi Defrawy, based on international standards.
The International Flower Festival will run from May 24 to July 12. The program includes gala concerts, drone shows, car parades, open-air symphonic concerts, a fashion week, various exhibitions, and international forums dedicated to tourism and investment.
