The event will feature a series of cultural and public gatherings dedicated to the Turkic world.

The program includes meetings bringing together representatives of the member states of the Organization of Turkic States, international institutions, and the Turkic diaspora. The focus will be on shared history, culture, and contemporary connections between regions.

The week will open with the photo exhibition “The Turkic World on the Silk Road”, held at the UN Office in Vienna. The exhibition will illustrate how ancient trade routes shaped dialogue between East and West.

A special highlight will be discussions on transport and trade links between Europe and Asia, taking place in the historic Hofburg Palace.

The cultural agenda will also feature educational meetings for the diaspora and a gala concert showcasing Turkic artists.

Turkic Culture Week offers an opportunity to see how the traditions and modern expressions of the Turkic world come together in a single European city.
