“Kolfest is a cultural international festival that brings together music, contemporary art, and cultural projects, attracting guests from various countries. Since its inception in 2019, artists from more than 18 countries have performed at the festival, and the total number of visitors has exceeded 10,000 from 30 countries around the world. This event has become an important platform for cultural exchange and the development of creative industries in Kyrgyzstan. The festival is held on private property, and all events are carried out within the rented venue in compliance with the legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic,” the team stated in an official statement.
The organizers claim that they notify in advance and work closely with the relevant government agencies and security services.
“We place great importance on complying with the legislation of the Kyrgyz Republic, ensuring the safety of our guests and participants, as well as respecting the culture and traditions of the country. We are open to dialogue and ready to share the necessary information with government agencies, partners, and the public. We are confident that justice and the facts, rather than subjective opinions, will ultimately be known to the public,” the festival team concluded.
