Thousands of Muscovites and Guests of the Capital Will Have a Chance to Witness the Spasskaya Tower Festival Participants Marching on VDNH

Go back

Saturday, August 24, at 12 am Moscow’s VDNH will host the traditional marching parade of the participants of the Twelfth Spasskaya Tower International Military Music.

The marching parade will feature both Russian and foreign military bands and artistic ensembles taking part in this year’s Festival production.

Musicians will start their show from the Square of Industry. Marching along the Main Alley, they will reach the Stone Flower Fountain, and then proceed to the Alley of Cosmonauts. Near the Lenin Monument the parade will return to the Main Alley, finally reaching the Main Entrance Arch of VDNH.

For a whole hour Muscovites and guests of the capital will have a chance to enjoy the brilliant skills, unusual musical instruments as well as gorgeous uniform and costumes of the world’s best military bands and artistic groups.

“VDNH is the best place for holding the marching parade of the Festival’s participants. Throughout the history of the Spasskaya Tower Festival we’ve tried different spots. In 2018 the Government of Moscow suggested us using the territory of VDNH and we happily accepted the offer. Having gone through a large-scale reconstruction and upgrading, the exhibition complex got back its greatness and magnificence. Its long and large alleys allow that thousands of Muscovites and guests of the capital witness the Festival participants’ performance in one of the most beautiful places of Moscow. This year VDNH celebrates its 80th anniversary and we are happy to contribute to the party with our spending marching parade”, highlighted Mr. Sergey Smirnov, Head of the Festival.

The Twelfth Spasskaya Tower International Military Music Festival will take place on Red Square from August 23 to September 1, 2019.
