Join us for a vibrant day of celebration at the Luton Turkish Festival on Saturday, 15 June 2025, where you’ll have the chance to experience the colours, sounds, and stories of Turkish culture—brought to life through a rich programme of activities and performances.
Proudly supported by Yunus Emre Enstitüsü – London, the festival will feature a range of traditional arts and cultural experiences. Don’t miss the free live performance of Karagöz & Hacivat, the beloved duo of Turkish shadow theatre, led by acclaimed master performer Mengü Türk. This centuries-old art form blends humour, storytelling, and social commentary in a visually engaging spectacle that delights audiences of all ages.
Visit our cultural stall to engage with Turkey’s artistic heritage up close. From calligraphy and paper marbling to Turkish language resources and cultural displays, our space offers something for everyone—whether you’re discovering Turkish culture for the first time or reconnecting with familiar traditions.
Bring your family and friends and enjoy a day filled with creativity, cultural exchange, and community spirit.
