Dear friends! St. Petersburg is considered to be one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Each year millions of tourists from different countries come to enjoy our famous museums and theaters, the unique architectural appearance of the Northern capital, its special creative atmosphere. They know that the true Petersburg hospitality awaits them on the banks of the Neva. There are a lot of festivals, holidays and exciting competitions that take place in our city. Many of them have gained national and global fame — for instance, the festival of school graduates “The Scarlet Sails”, the opening and closing ceremonies of the fountain season in Peterhof, the musical show “Singing Bridges”, the festivals “The White Nights” and “All Together Opera”. In the summer of 2018, St. Petersburg hosted the FIFA World Cup. Thanks to the most prestigious football tournament, the city became famous as a world sports capital as well. In 2019, the diverse life of the metropolis will be no less intense. The residents and visitors of the city will find a lot of fascinating and useful information about it in the “St. Petersburg Calendar of events”. Welcome to St. Petersburg!
