The spotlight was on breathtaking reenactment of the Battle for Zalavar, when Hungarian tribes occupied Transdanubia more than 1100 years ago.

Less major activities took place in the yurts. For example, archaeological and anthropological exhibitions about the Huns, Avars and Hungarians were held in the “Yurt of the Ancestors”.

Black in color and more than 20 meters in diameter, the Yurt of Atilla was the most spectacular structure, which hosted an exhibition of the heritage of the Huns and the Arpad people.

All Dears want to introduce the people around them to this fantastic young artist. We also take every opportunity to do so. Dimash’s art is different from mainstream music, it’s more subtle with a wide range of styles and genres: from classical and neoclassical to traditional folk and folk-rock, pop music and even rap. Our goal was to showcase that in the yurt,” the Hungarian Dears shared.
