Svetlana Suleymanova from Penza, the millionth guest of the RUSSIA EXPO, watched the ballet "The Nutcracker" at the Bolshoi Theater with her family. Svetlana received this New Year's Eve gift as an "anniversary" guest of the Exposition from the Directorate of the Exhibition of Achievements "Russia", the Bank of Russia and the Ministry of Culture of the Russian Federation.

"The feelings are indescribable! We are utterly delighted with the ballet, it is just an emotional explosion, the acting, the staging, the Christmas tree, the scenery, and the waltz of snowflakes - we liked everything very much", — Svetlana shared her emotions.

Let us remind you that Svetlana together with her husband visited the Exposition on November 16 and became the millionth visitor. She was presented with a gift — a certificate for a trip to Moscow and a visit to the Bolshoi Theater.

"Many thanks to the whole team that worked on this project. At the RUSSIA EXPO, the whole country is shown in miniature, each region with its own unique flavor. This creates pride for Russia, and you leave completely changed: inspired, enlightened, you want to create and do something for the country", — said Svetlana Suleymanova.
