In Bishkek, at the cultural and entertainment park 'Eurasia', the winter season has begun, featuring an ice rink, the 'Northern Lights' fair, attractions, festive shows, and numerous photo zones. Entry is free for everyone, and the program will last until January 11.
Theatrical opening and the main Christmas tree
The season opening was marked by a theatrical performance 'Tale of the Wind', featuring local creative groups. The central element of the New Year decoration is a 35-meter Christmas tree, around which the main activities and photo zones are located.
According to Vyacheslav Sharikov, the director of the park, 'Eurasia' has established itself as one of the popular public places in the capital, where families can spend time and enjoy cultural traditions.
The park has become a favorite spot for locals and tourists, where they can have fun with loved ones and connect with culture.

He noted that since its opening, the park has attracted about half a million visitors.
Ice rink, fair, and show programs
Park guests can enjoy a large open-air ice rink covering 650 square meters, as well as a tent circus with daily performances and a stage where animation shows and concerts take place.
The winter fair 'Northern Lights' continues to operate, offering festive treats, souvenirs, and various workshops.
There are over 30 thematic photo zones and art installations in the park, including a 10-meter figure of Santa Claus. Additionally, there are light tunnels and ice installations that create a festive atmosphere.
For children, there are two Santa Claus houses where they can recite a poem and receive a gift. In the creative houses, workshops on modeling, painting, face painting, and working with felt are held.
In collaboration with the Ministry of Education, educational and creative activities have been organized at the fair, including special activities for children with disabilities — a separate area has been created for them, and access to some attractions has been provided.
The park administration is open to cooperation with children's and youth groups and plans to support talented youth for joint projects.
'Ice School' and the National Traditions Program
Active leisure enthusiasts can visit the 'Ice School' project, where skating lessons are conducted under the guidance of professionals. There is also a yurt with the 'National Traditions' program, where interactive classes and introductions to elements of Kyrgyz culture are organized.
On December 31, the park will be open until 10:00 PM.
The park can accommodate up to 12-15 thousand visitors per day. On weekdays, the average attendance is 10-12 thousand people, while on weekends, the park is fully filled.
Parking for 250 cars is available for guests, and the administration is considering launching additional public transport.
All attractions undergo daily technical checks and are equipped with sensors that automatically stop them in case of malfunctions. The park does not operate in rainy weather, and some attractions are closed during extremely low temperatures.
About 300 employees work in the park, and a separate team handles visitor inquiries and suggestions.
The park management announced that 2026 will be a year of development, including the implementation of projects to create an inclusive environment. However, the opening of 'Eurasia' branches is not planned in the near future.
