Çorum Hitit Fair activities

Overview

The 38th International Çorum Hitit Fair and Festival began with a programme that highlighted the city’s culinary heritage and artistic exchange. Competitions featured regional foods such as Çorum su böreği, baklava, kuru mantısı and şekerlemesi, with cash prizes for the top producers of leblebi, and an International Art Workshop brought together painters from Turkey and five neighboring countries to create works inspired by local historic sites.

A few days later the fair expanded its cultural showcase by adding a Turkish Shepherd Dog Championship, where around 100 native breeds were judged by experts from international canine organizations. The leblebi competition was repeated, with the same producers again taking the top three spots. Organisers and the mayor emphasized these events as expressions of Çorum’s cultural heritage.
