Preparations for the Gala Concert of the Jubilee "Zhuldyzai" Festival Enter the Final Stage

On June 1, Astana will host the Gala Concert of the 20th Republican Children's Creativity Festival "Zhuldyzai" – a unique project that, for two decades, has provided children with special educational needs the opportunity to showcase their talents and step onto the big stage. Participants are already arriving in the Astana for rehearsals and final preparations.
For 20 years, the festival has brought together hundreds of young participants from all regions of Kazakhstan, offering them a platform, attention, and confidence in their abilities. This year, 300 children who passed the preliminary selection have become laureates and traveled to the Astana to compete in four categories: vocal performance, choreography, sign-language song interpretation, and instrumental performance.
One of the standout participants is Inzhu Tileuzhan from the Zhambyl region, who won first place in the "Choreography" category.
"I was very excited to participate in the festival. This is my first time in Astana. My dream is to perform on a big stage, and soon it will come true. I wish everyone good luck and a great performance," said the young artist.
Her mentor, Roza Sarzhanova, emphasized the importance of participating in such projects:
"We have been participating in 'Zhuldyzai' for four years, but this is our first time reaching the republic stage. We prepared throughout the year. For Inzhu, this is a special experience: her first train journey, her first performance in Astana. We are grateful to the organizers for this celebration for our children. The festival helps them believe in themselves and make new friends."
The final concert will take place on June 1 at 2:30 PM at the Zhaksylyk Ushkempirov Martial Arts Palace and will be broadcast live on the "Astana" TV channel. The Grand Prix winner will be determined through a public vote on the website fest.juldizai.kz. Everyone is welcome to participate in the voting.
The festival is organized by the "Zhuldyzai" Corporate Foundation. Its general partner is the construction holding BI Group, with informational support provided by the "Astana" TV channel.
"Zhuldyzai" is more than just a festival. It is a space where exceptional children find confidence, support, and a chance to shine across the nation.
