The Fifth Voices of Friends: Poetry & Art transformed Burabay into a vibrant cultural hub of Eurasia.

From November 29 to December 2, authors, artists, musicians, and filmmakers from 20 countries presented their work, made new connections, and inspired one another with bold ideas.

The youth film festival Cinema Future introduced new names to the world. Book presentations by Hertfordshire Press, discussions on art, performances by an international choir, and creative practices in nature at the ECG Horizons residency – every moment was filled with warmth and creative energy.

Participants noted that the creativity of Eurasian artists is becoming a global voice that will continue to grow stronger. The festival itself is evolving like a living universe of ideas and emotions. Here, everyone is a creator, and everyone feels that their voice matters.

As TURKSOY Secretary General Sultan Raev emphasized, these days have demonstrated that the culture of the Turkic world is not only a heritage but also a living future.

The festival took place thanks to the support of partners, volunteers, and all those who believe that art creates a space where friendship and ideas are born and new horizons are revealed.

At the gala evening, those shaping the future of Eurasian culture were honored, and the new leadership of the Eurasian Creative Guild (London) was announced, confidently paving the way toward 2026.
