— What are your impressions of the 2025 festival?
It was magical. Honestly, I feel a bit awkward whenpeople thank me for the Dashiki Festival. After all, itwas conceived for them. Thousands of people came — this is the result of many years of effort. We aregrateful to the participants, volunteers, and the teamthat worked tirelessly to make it happen.
— What challenges did you face?
We cleaned the streets, ran a football tournament, andorganized the parade — all of it took energy. Even onthe final day, it rained, and I was worried. But peoplestill came — and that showed they could feel thesincerity behind it all.
— What role did 1xBet play?
A huge one. I honestly feel like we became one family. This partnership was perfect. 1xBet gave us theresources and the confidence to bring even the mostambitious ideas to life. They weren’t just sponsors — they were with us from day one to the last. Support forfootball, gifts, and engagement — all were done in a truly remarkable way.
— What does the slogan Rep Your Tribe mean toyou?
It’s about identity. You can be from any tribe and beproud of that. Dashiki became a space where you canshow who you are, without judgment, withoutinequality. Everyone belongs here. And 1xBet helpedmake that space possible.
— What can we expect in 2026?
The tenth anniversary festival. We are alreadypreparing surprises. Don’t be shocked if Shatta Waleappears on stage. Believe us — Dashiki will be theevent of the year.
