The ceremony, hosted by Vienna’s Institute of Arts and Society, was held with the coordination of the Iranian Embassy in the Austrian capital.
It took place at the Austrian National Library on Saturday, bringing together representatives from embassies and cultural centers of ten countries celebrating Nowruz, namely Iran, Afghanistan, the Azerbaijan Republic, Iraq, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Pakistan, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan and Uzbekistan.
Playing folk music of each of those countries and serving their local dishes were part of the programs at the ceremony.
A Haft Sin table, symbolizing a tradition observed in Iran on Nowruz, was arranged as well.
In Iran, Nowruz will begin on March 20 on the first day of the spring.
The occasion is also celebrated by various ethnic groups across the world.
