The 23rd International Sürmeli Festival, organized by the Yozgat Municipality this year, continues with various activities. Citizens show great interest in many events and concerts held in Cumhuriyet Square.

On the 3rd day of the festival, the performances of the Ankara Club Association’s seymen team stole the show. Not breaking the invitation to the marbles game of the seymen team, Yozgat Governor Mehmet Ali Özkan took to the stage.

Thanking those who contributed to the organization of the festival, Governor Özkan said, “I extend my gratitude to our Mayor, the staff who worked hard, and our fellow citizens who filled Cumhuriyet Square in Bozok Plateau. May God bless those who work hard and you. May your hearts be joyful and your day festive. I also express my gratitude to my fellow citizens from Ankara for the seymen.”
