Notes from the last check

The UNESCO Commission's page gives a fixed Novruz rule (March 20-21) and says the main festivities usually take place by the Maiden Tower, and the Icherisheher reserve administration's site is confirmed as the organizer, but no official Maiden Tower programme or 2026 dates were found.
