Monday is a maintenance day at the National Centre RUSSIA

On Monday, 4 May, the National Centre RUSSIA will be closed to visitors as the venue will hold its regular maintenance day. This is necessary to ensure that the expositions remain in perfect condition and that every visit is comfortable, safe and delivers only positive impressions.

Specialists will carry out a deep clean of exposition spaces and public areas, check the operation of multimedia equipment, interactive panels and systems, and update software and consumables. The National Centre RUSSIA will reopen to visitors of all ages on Tuesday, 5 May.

The National Centre RUSSIA welcomes guests from Tuesday to Sunday, from 10:00 to 20:00. Visitors can explore the cultural and historical legacy and contemporary achievements of the country’s regions at the permanent exposition "Journey Across Russia", trace the routes of Russian explorers within the exposition project "Geography Lessons", and discover the cuisines of different peoples at the Gastronomic Rows "Journey Across Russia. Food".

In addition, from 1 to 10 May, the National Centre RUSSIA is hosting events dedicated to the 81st anniversary of the Great Victory. Guests can say “thank you” to the Heroes by taking part in the nationwide campaign "Memory Wall", the charity campaign "Red Carnation", the patriotic campaign "Cars for the Front", and other commemorative and thematic events. The exposition project "Geography Lessons" and special sections of the exposition "Journey Across Russia" also present stories about military topography, cartographer heroes, the Siege of Leningrad, and other historical events, people, feats and phenomena.

All events are free of charge; some require prior registration. The current schedule and announcements are available on russia.ru in the "Events" section and on the official social media pages of the National Centre RUSSIA.
