Tirgan
July 20–23, 2023
As we come together to celebrate this cultural occasion, we embrace the essence of “Rebirth” that is ingrained in Iranian traditions. The notion of “Rebirth” is witnessed in the inner resilience of the Iranian people and their desire for progress and revival. This year, Tirgan Festival programs are planned to create cultural unity and shared experiences, evoking the spirit of rebellion and transformation through the power of arts and culture for broader communities.
Through the works of artists, writers, scholars, and musicians, we will showcase the diverse and vibrant culture of Iran while also reflecting on the challenges faced by its people. We hope to provide a space for healing and reflection, where we can come together as a community to celebrate an ancient culture and to support and honour the struggles of our fellow human beings.
We intend to generate cultural experiences hovering around the profound values of renewal and growth, rooted deeply in Iranian culture, and inspire our audience to realize that our choices give us the advantage to evolve and progress. Side by side, we will explore “Rebirth”, the core belief of Iranian heritage, to shine rays of hope and serve humanity.
