Night quest, sightseeing tour and concert: Saturday night at the RUSSIA EXPO
Since mid-May, the outdoor spaces of the International
RUSSIA EXPO have extended their opening hours on Saturdays until midnight.
Pavilions still accept visitors until 22:00. On May 18, a rich program
consisting of night quests, sightseeing tours and a concert was prepared for
the guests.
At 20:00 and 22:00, at Pavilion M "Guest Center" visitors to the Exposition
took part in the quest "City of the Future, or in Search of VDNHspiration",
developed by the Rosmolodezh program "More than a Trip” and starting at
Pavilion M "Guest Center". The guides-"conductors of meanings"
told the Exposition guests a legend that transported them to a fairy-tale world
filled with mysterious heroes and exciting challenges.
"This quest allows its participants to get
acquainted with the Exposition and think about the important meanings for every
person. During the event, participants receive envelopes with tasks. After
completing them, they head to points on the Exposition territory, where actors
are waiting for them, making the quest even brighter and more emotional. Thanks
to the quest, participants can learn more about the achievements of our
country," said Inessa Tikanova, guide of the Rosmolodezh program "More
than a Trip", advisor to the head of the Guest Center,
methodologist-developer of excursions at the Exposition.
There, at Pavilion M "Guest Center", at
20:30 and 22:00 the sightseeing tours entitled "Night Lights of VDNH"
started. The participants were introduced to the architecture and history of
the complex at an unusual time of day, and were told about the role and
innovations brought to the territory by the RUSSIA EXPO. Participants of the
excursion saw how the symbols of VDNH, familiar from childhood, transform in
the light of evening lanterns. You can register for the routes and find out
details at the link.
"The excursion "Night Lights of VDNH"
tells about the Exposition and the achievements of our country. Its
participants discovered what is presented at the Exposition, what can be seen
and learned in different pavilions - without entering them. The guests together
with guides walked around the territory and enjoyed its beauty, and visitors
were told about the history and architecture of VDNH," Inessa Tikanova
noted.
And at 22:00, the VK street concert started on the
stage near Pavilion No. 1, where CHRIS YANK, Tima Akimov and ESMI performed for
the guests of the Exposition.
ESMI admitted that she was very happy to perform at
the Exposition venue.
“It's almost summer, it's getting warmer, I want to
share my energy with the people around me, with the visitors of the Exposition.
It's very cool, very awesome, very grand,” the singer ESMI said.
The integration of special military operation veterans into peaceful life and the interaction between regions and municipalities were discussed as part of the Forum "SMALL HOMELAND – THE STRENGTH OF RUSSIA".
The second All-Russian Municipal Forum "Small Homeland – the Strength of Russia" is taking place at the National Centre RUSSIA.
