Under the eternal blue sky, the thunder of hooves, the chants of wrestlers, and the whistle of arrows will once again come alive! Join us in celebrating Mongolia’s National Festival – Naadam, right here in Chicago.

This event is a vibrant tribute to Mongolia’s warrior spirit, nomadic culture, and national pride.

Activities Include:

• Mongolian wrestling

• Traditional costume parade

• Live Mongolian music, dance, and performances

• Fun games and contests for kids

• Authentic Mongolian food (khuushuur, buuz, airag, and more!) • Artisan crafts and cultural exhibitions

Everyone is welcome — Mongolians, friends, families, and cultural explorers! Let’s gather to honor our heritage, share our pride, and celebrate the spirit of Mongolia in the heart of Chicago.

Naadam is more than a festival — it is the soul of a nation
