Alexandria Gathers Friends 2025

 

One of the main themes of this year’s celebration was the 80th anniversary of the Victory of the Soviet people in the Great Patriotic War. In addition to Belarusian artisans, the festival featured delegations of decorative and applied arts masters from nearly thirty regions of Russia. Representatives from Amur Oblast, Sakhalin Oblast, and Bashkortostan were participating for the first time.

 

The highlight of the celebration was a gala concert inspired by beloved and iconic films. The concert took the form of a musical performance and concluded with a festive fireworks display and a traditional Kupala bonfire.
