Novruz Bayram

Azerbaijan's biggest and most colourful holiday — the pre-Islamic spring new-year, celebrated with bonfires and jumping over fire, sprouting wheat (samani), sweets (shekerbura, pakhlava), tightrope walkers and folk performers. Baku's Old City and Boulevard host public festivities; the mood is warmest in the days around the equinox.

Dates change each year — always confirm before you book. We can package the event with hotels, transfers and a full trip around it.
