UNIVERSITY FESTIVALS

Each May NAU KhAI celebrates the University Day. The alumni from all over the world come to Alma Mater to meet their mates and visit academic buildings. The festive occasion begins with the parade of students, teaching staff and personnel accompanied by welcoming speeches and greetings from the University rector and special guests. At this event, NAU KhAI stadium holds an exhibition of hang-gliders, autogyros and aircraft made by students and staff. The sky is filled with aircraft models and all comers can perform a short flight on a hot air balloon. In the evening NAU KhAI’s creative groups (dancers, musicians, etc.) organise a great talent show. Traditionally, the day is finishing with festive fireworks. Another traditional festival is the annual freshmen “students initiation”. The event, which is similar to the University Day, takes place in late August. Also, for each national holiday gala concerts are given for all NAU KhAI members.
