Supported by the regional education department, the festival has attracted over 100 applications from across Kazakhstan, including major hubs like Astana, Shymkent, and Almaty, as well as the Mangystau, Kyzylorda, and Abai regions.
Participants are competing in categories ranging from culinary arts to fashion design, with a specific focus on blending modern trends with traditional Kazakh heritage. The high stakes are matched by a prestigious judging panel featuring international experts from France, Italy, Turkey, Egypt, and Russia. Beyond the competition, the festival serves as a platform for implementing global educational standards in vocational training. The grand winners will be announced during the closing ceremony on April 10.
