The large-scale event was attended by more than 1.5 thousand people. The competition among reindeer herding families in Yugra is included in the regional calendar of event tourism and is a large-scale celebration of the national culture and sports traditions of the Khanty and Mansi peoples. Participants competed in five all-around disciplines – harnessing reindeer, reindeer sled racing, transporting firewood on sleds, throwing a tynzyan (lasso) on a khorey (a pole for driving reindeer), and running on hunting skis. In addition, the skills of reindeer herding were assessed.
The competition site recreated the authentic atmosphere of a camp of indigenous peoples of the North: tents were installed, a procession of festive reindeer teams was held. Guests saw an extensive musical and interactive program with performances by folk groups. Craft workshops, play areas, sports grounds were open, and northern delicacies were offered.
