More than 190,000 people visited the International RUSSIA EXPO on the first day. The exposition started on the National Unity Day at the VDNH in Moscow. On November 4, concerts, educational events, openings of new pavilions and presentations were held at the Exposition.
The first event of the International RUSSIA EXPO was a massive flash mob: visitors together with choreographers danced at 10 VDNH venues at once.

The educational program included a marathon "Knowledge.First" from the Russian Society "Knowledge". The first day of the Exposition ended with the show "Portal to the Future", featuring Larisa Dolina, Yulianna Karaulova, SHAMAN and Natalia Podolskaya.
On November 5, on the RUSSIA EXPO grounds there will be the gala concert "Wind Rose — Achievement of Russia", where young talents from all over Russia will perform, and a VK concert with Antoha MC, GAYAZOV$ BROTHER$, Ramil' and Seville.
