Nogbon or the Ossetian New Year is a new year festival celebrated by Ossetians and the "master of the New Year" in Ossetian mythology.[1][2][3] It is celebrated annually between 12 and 14 of January.

The common customs/rituals of the festival are serving a traditional festive pie called "artkhuron" which symbolizes the sun, dancing around the fire and jumping over the fire to eliminate "last year's adversity".[4]
