How to see all the fireworks on City Day

On the 870th birthday, dozens of fireworks will go off in Moscow - each prefecture will have its own. However, there is also a unique offer - to enjoy the inspiring spectacle from the 230-meter height of the Empire Tower.

The excursion “City Day on the 58th Floor” invites you to celebrate the holiday on top of the Moscow City building. Why is the offer interesting? It's simple - from here you will see all the fireworks, and at once.

The cost of the excursion and the “City Day on the 58th Floor” fireworks display is set by the organizer.

Previously, Muscovites and residents of the capital knew exactly when City Day in Moscow 2017 was, because the holiday was held on a specific September weekend. But then the date became floating and, unfortunately, this happened not without reason, but in connection with tragic events. The celebration of City Day in Moscow was postponed once and since then, each year has its own special date, but within the time allocated for this.

Deputies of the Moscow City Duma, in the first reading, approved amendments to the legislation, which lead to the fact that the capital’s City Day will now have a floating date. If earlier this holiday was always celebrated on the first September weekend, now the holiday will have two official dates - the first or second September weekend, and for each year this is decided separately depending on which dates the weekend falls on.

Why was such a bill adopted immediately, and then the mayor of the city also quickly and without questions signed it? The thing is that September 10 would not only be Moscow City Day, but also the Day of Solidarity in the Fight against Terrorism. The second holiday is sad and was established in honor of the hostage taking at a school in Beslan in 2004. It was impossible to allow such important events to be commemorated simultaneously on the same day. Moreover, one event should be joyful, cheerful and accompanied by folk festivities, and the other should be a tragic event, accompanied by the memory of deaths, including the death of children. In honor of the holiday, you can do it.

Due to the postponement of the date mentioned above, this year the capital will celebrate its day on September 9. It turns out that if previously Moscow City Day always fell on the first weekend in September, this year the law was amended and now, depending on the year, the annual celebration of Moscow City Day will be established separately on the first or second weekend of September. When determining the date, not only holidays and memorable days that are nearby, but also weather conditions will be taken into account.

When City Day 2017 is in Moscow, it will be on September 9, and the citizens themselves suggested postponing the celebration of this holiday, and the city government only supported this initiative. For the first time such a proposal was voiced at the beginning of summer, when Sergei Sobyanin spoke on one of the national television channels of our country.

Important! In addition to remembering the victims of the tragedy in Beslan in the first half of September, on this day they also remember and pay tribute to the victims of other tragedies. So, September 4 is the day of remembrance for those killed in the terrorist attack in Buinaksk, September 7 is the day of remembrance for the passengers of the Yak-42, which crashed near Yaroslavl. But on the 8th and 13th of the first month of autumn they mourn for the people who died due to the explosion of houses in the capital on Guryanov Street, as well as on Kashirskoye Highway.

It turns out that in 2017 Moscow will celebrate its City Day on September 9 in a magnificent and bright, interesting way, as always. We remind you that the capital of our homeland is turning 870 years old. Yes, for those who have not carefully read this material, we once again emphasize that Moscow City Day has been postponed this year and now each year the dates for its celebration will be set separately, falling on the first or second weekend in September. The holiday fell on September 9 this year.

Program of events for Moscow City Day 2017

How the capital will be decorated

Already in this material it was mentioned and the attentive reader, of course, noticed how many years Moscow turns in 2017 - it is 870 years old and in the festive decor we tried to adhere to this particular symbol. The symbol of the holiday will be in the center of five rings, whose colors resemble the Russian tricolor. You can quickly make a holiday dinner if you prepare.

Also, Moscow historically developed according to the principle of a ring, and in the symbol of this City Day, the organizers wanted to especially emphasize this. Today in Moscow there are five rings that have developed historically - the Garden Ring, the Third Transport Ring, the Moscow Ring Road, as well as the Circle Line of the metro and the new Moscow Central Ring.

Throughout the city during the holiday, you can see installations with the number 869 in red, blue or white; congratulatory posters, the Russian flag, and three-dimensional figures with congratulatory inscriptions addressed to the capital are also hung everywhere.

If you want to see the tall arches, 33 meters wide and 14 meters high, then on City Day 2017, go to Pushkinskaya Square, on Tverskaya Street. These arches were created based on the entrance group of the post-war Moscow fair.

Benches in the shape of the letters “Moscow” will be installed on Tverskaya Street and Novy Arbat, in front of the Russian State Library Square. The letters are installed on a large scale, and in the evening they delight with beautiful lighting.

When City Day in Moscow 2017 will be celebrated on a new date - September 9, but one thing you can be sure of is that the holiday will be organized on a grand scale and in every corner of the capital they will definitely find something to surprise and delight guests and visitors.
