Uzbekistan: Heart of the Silk Road' festival in Cardiff
Part of the Uzbekistan: Heart of the Silk Road event, the festivities will take place on Churchill Way on June 12.
The event is spearheaded by the Uzbek diaspora in the UK, with support from organisations including and the Uzbek Embassy in London.
Sophie Ibbotson, Uzbekistan's tourism ambassador to the UK, said: "We want Brits to fall in love with this extraordinary Central Asian country.
"Uzbekistan embodies every Silk Road fantasy – from camels crossing deserts to bazaars trading precious silks and spices – but it's also a young and energetic country, with thriving contemporary fashion, food, and music scenes."
The event will feature a nationwide tour by OshPaz, the UK's only Uzbek food truck, fresh from their win at the British Street Food Awards 2025.
From 12pm to 5pm, attendees can enjoy free performances of Uzbek music and dance.
The event is free to attend.
