The RUSSIA EXPO hosted a grand ice show by Olympic figure skating medalist, producer and choreographer Ilya Averbukh The Nutcracker and the Mouse King.

"This is a very ambitious production, but it can’t be any other way at the RUSSIA EXPO. We are happy to have the chance to show our performance here, and I am sure there will be a huge number of people during the New Year vacations here. I really hope that our performance will become a decoration of the Exposition", — said Ilya Averbukh.
