1 Day Mini Naadam Festival 2026 & Nomadic Culture Experience

The Festival consists of three main games referred as “Three Manly Sports” such as traditional wrestling, horse racing and archery. In the aisles of the Central Stadium, both archery and the fourth Naadam game- ankle bone shooting will surely capture your interest. Hundreds of herders with their race horses will rush from various parts of the country to participate the biggest race. Racing will take place out in the plains with varying distances of up to 15-20miles in 6 different age categories. We kindly recommend booking in advance our Naadam Festival Tour and People of Central Asia have become NOMADS due to the harsh and extreme climate of their habitat. Nomads seek out best pastures and water sources for their livestock and migrate accordingly. Climate, landscape and daily challenges developed them as tough, resilient and self-sufficient nomads during centuries of struggle. Nomads created rich and diverse cultural heritage unique to the world.
