By order of the President, branches of the National Centre RUSSIA will open in five Russian regions by the end of 2025. The regions were selected based on the project defense, in which 15 regions participated.

Thus, branches of the National Centre RUSSIA will appear in the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area – Yugra, the Ryazan region, Sevastopol, Primorye, and the Krasnoyarsk region.

They will introduce residents and visitors of the regions to the legacy of the International RUSSIA EXPO and the achievements of our country. The branches will host extensive business, cultural, and public programs.

"The branches of the National Centre preserve the legacy of the RUSSIA EXPO. One of our important tasks is to share knowledge and experience with the regions so they can create local hubs that will surprise and inspire people," noted Natalia Virtuozova, Director General of the National Centre RUSSIA.

All regional venues will become exposition spaces and places for cultural events, educational programs, workshops, and creative meetings. The branches will feature expositions dedicated to the implementation of national projects and the contribution of local residents to the development of the country. The branches will also include zones for business and event programs, department stores with unique regional and Russian brands, children's areas, lecture halls, and areas showcasing local and regional cuisines. 

The opening of the National Centre RUSSIA branch in Khanty-Mansiysk will be timed to coincide with the 95th anniversary of the establishment of the Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Area – Yugra. It will be located in a separate building with all the necessary infrastructure on the banks of the Irtysh River. 

In Ryazan, the National Centre RUSSIA branch will open at the Ryazan VDNH. This venue will be able to convey the ideology and legacy of the International RUSSIA EXPO. Today, the Ryazan VDNH is the only preserved and restored complex of the regional exposition from the Soviet period, out of the 11 complexes once built. 

The branch in Vladivostok will be launched in the building of the Vladivostok Oceanarium on the Sports Embankment along the Amur Bay. This is a landmark location for the residents and visitors of the city. One of the highlights of the future branch will be the legacy of the Vladivostok Oceanarium — an oval-shaped aquarium with sturgeons. The regional exposition will reflect unique local landmarks and displays featuring the future vision of the Primorye region. 

In Sevastopol, the branch will open in the building of the operating Russia cinema. This popular venue for cultural events attracts a large number of visitors. Much of the focus will be on domestic tourism, the achievements of the hero city, its role in the economy, culture, traditions, and the heroic past of Russia. Visitors will be able to dive into the history of Sevastopol — from ancient Chersonese to the "Russian Spring" — and learn about the most significant events and projects in Sevastopol, with a vision for 2035. 

The branch of the National Centre RUSSIA in Krasnoyarsk will be located on the Central Embankment at the Yenisei Gallery. According to the concept, the branch will become a year-round family leisure center with an achievements gallery. The key idea of the branch and its exposition will be the "return home" of the Yenisei, who will serve as a personal guide to all the displays. As both an AI assistant and personal guide, it will help navigate the space and provide information about the region.

One of the main features will be the "Voice of the Yenisei" — a water installation that transmits words and images: a matrix fountain with an AI system allowing visitors to "communicate" with the Yenisei through symbols and words.

The National Centre RUSSIA will provide support and methodological assistance to all branches, both at the opening stage and during the launch of new federal and regional expositions and projects. In accordance with the Presidential Decree, the network of branches of the National Centre RUSSIA will expand in the future.
