A meshrep is a traditional Uygur gathering that typically includes poetry, music, dance, and conversation.

Meshreps are usually held on various occasions such as festivals, weddings, harvest seasons and whenever Uygur people feel happy.

In Awat county, Aksu Prefecture, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, people say that life without meshreps is a life without flavors.
