Does anyone have any details of events for the Esenteppe festival yet ? I thought it started this/next week and i haven't seen any programme info anywhere yet. Was hoping to take family for evening or two.

If they cannot get the programme out, don't bother going, they even changed dates after previous advertising it was a fortnight earlier!!

June 2nd Tuesday from 9pm Should read "Local Dancing - Hati and her Bellydancing Team "

We are a local group of brits plus our host Hati who have learnt a bellydance themed dance routine in a relatively short time, and hope people will enjoy our performance on Tueday evening. There will also be bellydancing from

our instructor Turkan, followed by displays from various groups.

Nearly all the events will be held at the wedding park in the village, and the international dancing, concerts and

gala evenings are well worth seeing and are enjoyed by all nationalities having fun together.
