Monday is a maintenance day at the National Centre RUSSIA

On Monday, 29 December, the National Centre RUSSIA will hold its final maintenance day of the year. Since 31 December is a pre‑New Year holiday across the country, the National Centre will also be closed to visitors on that day. We look forward to welcoming you to our hospitable space on the last working day of the year — Tuesday, 30 December. All expositions and zones will be open to our guests as usual, from 10:00 to 20:00. 

Please note that the weekly maintenance day is necessary for routine checks of all equipment and technical facilities across the National Centre RUSSIA — from interactive expositions to guest areas. These technical works aim to enhance visitor comfort and safety, helping to make their experience more memorable.

Please be aware that in 2026 the National Centre RUSSIA resumes operations on 6 January, returning to its regular schedule: Tuesday to Sunday, from 10:00 to 20:00. During the New Year holidays, visitors can look forward to a range of exciting activities: from traditional folk колядования (carolling) at the travelling exposition "Book of Fairy Tales" to festive tastings in the Gastronomic Rows, family‑friendly workshops, and, of course, the colourful multimedia play "Morozko", featuring the country’s top performers and creative ensembles.

Please plan your visit to the National Centre RUSSIA in advance. See you soon — in the closing year and the one to come!
