The events held every year during the week of December 7-17, the anniversary of Mevlana Celaleddin-i Rumi's death, illuminate the spiritual world of thousands of guests from all over the world.

The program begins with a recitation from the Quran, after a short mesnevi discussion it continues with and a Turkish Sufi music concert. Finally, a Mevlevi ceremony of whirling derwishes is performed.

The ceremony begins with the Noble Eulogy (naat-ı şerif), which is the score composed by Itri and has been played since the late 17th century. Hymns written by composers such as Pir Adil Çelebi are sung by a trained chorus, which is accompanied by instruments such as the ney (flute), kettledrum and oud. The works of Rumi written in Persian are the basic source of the compositions performed by the musicians and singers during the ceremony.
