The most interesting festivals in Russia

Nothing unites people like holidays, concerts and festivals. We will discuss what festivals take place in Russia in this article.

"Invasion"

The largest Russian rock music festival, which is traditionally held in Samara. It combines all youth subcultures. It is here in the summer that thousands of lovers of loud heavy music come together. For three days there is an atmosphere of drive, and the field is filled just to capacity. Here were representatives of domestic rock, such as:

1. Valery Kipelov.
2. Louna.
3. Jane Air.
4. "King and the Clown".
5. "DDT".
6. "Alice".
7. "Aria".
8. "Spleen".
9. Max Pokrovsky.
10. "Night snipers".

Among the foreign teams, the most famous and long-awaited are, perhaps, Rammshtein and Taria Turrunen. Like all festivals in Russia, it is very spectacular, in an atmosphere of unity.

What I want to note especially is the organization of this festival. The organizers are attentive to not only musicians, but also guests. Here you can find everything you may need: from beer, cigarettes and products to musical paraphernalia and what a beginner needs in the open. Even charging mobile phones is provided.

"Army of Russia"

Festivals can concern not only culture, but also other spheres. Let's talk about one of them. The Army of Russia festival takes place in September. In 2017, the academic ensemble of song and dance of the Russian Army will take part in it. Here you can see with your own eyes the latest achievements in the field of military equipment, anti-aircraft missile systems, drones and much more. Participants of the festival will be everyone’s favorite stars of national pop and film, such as:

• Choir Turkish.
• Alexander Domogarov.
• Sergey Bezrukov.
• Alexander Marshall.

Young talents will not be left behind: the Fidgets and the winners of the New Wave contest will take part in the celebration.

Kinotavr

This is an open film festival in Russia. His main idea is not to discuss tapes that appeared on wide screens, but to search for young, talented unknowns to a wide range of names. This is being organized in order to give young filmmakers the opportunity to express themselves. The festival takes place every year. Today its president is Nikita Mikhalkov. There is a special nomination called "Prospects." It involves young directors and debutants.

Wild Mint

This festival is incredibly popular. He is in the top 5 best in the country. Like all festivals in Russia, he gathers a huge number of people. The program presented here is very diverse, and everyone will find something to their liking. Adults and children can relax.

Wild Mint is a gathering place for performers of various musical genres. The festival program includes ethnic music, theatrical performances and an open-air film screening. Fairy tales and various workshops are organized for younger guests. Here you can buy handmade handmade things that will be a great gift for your friends and relatives. Also within the framework of the Wild Mint festival various interesting and tasty dishes are presented.

Holi Festival of Colors

The birthplace of this festival is India. There Holi is a national holiday. At home, it is held every year in late February or early March, symbolizing the end of winter. On this day, like the Russian holiday of Shrovetide, the inhabitants of India burn a scarecrow. You can see with your own eyes walking on coals or how residents drive cattle through bonfires.

The holiday takes several days. When the second day comes, the Indians sprinkle each other with dry paint or simply water the tinted water. So they express the joy of spring.

In our country, this holiday is celebrated relatively recently and with significant differences. In Russia, Holi is a festival of bright colors and entertainment. It carries no religious significance. Holi is a great opportunity to hold charity events to help children and arrange a bright, unusual celebration. On this day you can see an interesting program, which includes:

1. Conducting a master class in Indian dances.
2. Show animators.
3. Giant soap bubbles.
4. Themed souvenirs.
5. A variety of contests.
6. Body art.
7. Performances by celebrities.

In addition to these events, choreographic festivals are held in Russia, for example, “Waltz of the White Nights” or the national festival-contest “Great Russia”.

The festival is a bright and colorful event of the summer. Do not miss the opportunity to participate in those that will take place in your city. You will give yourself a lot of pleasant experiences.
