When is City Day celebrated? What will happen in Gorky Park

City Day is a time when everyone has the opportunity to confess their love to their native or now-native metropolis, and once again look around in surprise and realize - I live in one of the most beautiful places on the planet! In 2016, Moscow will celebrate its 869th birthday on September 10, which was moved to the second weekend of September due to the fact that this year the holiday coincides with September 3 - the Day of Solidarity in the Fight against Terrorism.

Everyone has their own favorite holiday - New Year, Birthday, March 8, February 23... But there is a holiday that all Moscow residents, without exception, look forward to. We are, of course, talking about City Day! And this is not without reason, because the capital is literally blooming before our eyes, becoming even more beautiful and brighter than usual. This year, 2016, the best city on Earth, according to Leonid Petrovich Derbenev, the author of the lyrics to the song of the same name, will celebrate its 869th anniversary. And although the date is not round, the holiday promises to be grandiose.

2016 in our country is the Year of Russian Cinema. It was this theme that formed the basis of the concept of the capital’s upcoming birthday.

Moscow will appear elegant and updated to the citizens: posters, banners and banners depicting a composition of three numbers - eight, six and nine - are gradually appearing everywhere. It is noteworthy that they are presented in the form of five rings, which immediately evokes an association with the main transport arteries of the metropolis. Light walls and installations are installed in parks and squares, which create a unique atmosphere with their glow in the evening. Among the art objects, which are also decorations, five stylized arches stand out. They were created on the basis of sketches “originally” from 1947: then the first post-war fair was held in Moscow, and 69 years later, the entrance lobbies, as if greetings from the past, will again delight Muscovites.

It is worth noting that one of the gifts to citizens for the capital’s birthday will be free excursions. More than two hundred such routes have been announced. Many museums, exhibition centers, and art galleries invite guests to view their exhibitions these days, also completely free of charge.

The main festive program of City Day will unfold on Tverskaya: ten thematic platforms will operate here, each of which presents a specific and, of course, everyone’s favorite domestic film - “Ivan Vasilyevich is changing his profession”, “The meeting place cannot be changed”, “I am walking around Moscow” , “Pokrovsky Gate” and others. In addition, famous chefs here will offer guests to treat themselves to specialties from the same films. The townspeople will try here “overseas eggplant caviar”, the legendary “Olivier” salad, porridge, and for dessert, of course, “Bird’s Milk”.

The culmination of City Day will be fireworks, however, this year it will not be the same as usual: in the sky over Moscow, those gathered will see not just sheaves of light splashes, but all kinds of shapes - flowers, balls, hearts. A dozen sites will be set up within the city from which launches will take place, so that the entire city will literally be enveloped in a bright glow. The organizers promise that the heavenly performance will be visible from afar, so guests of the holiday will absolutely be able to enjoy this unprecedented show. But we still recommend choosing a place to watch it in advance. This is the first time such a highly artistic fireworks display will take place in the Russian capital, so it’s definitely worth seeing! Surely, not all the surprises have been revealed yet, so just plan a long walk for the whole day and you will see everything with your own eyes. Every year, City Day is an unforgettable event that is talked about and admired for a long time.

Program of events for City Day in Moscow 2016

The holiday entertainment program is always created taking into account that people of all ages will be interested in attending the events. Most of them involve spectator participation, to which the townspeople enthusiastically answer “yes.” City Day is an opportunity to express yourself, show off your talents and make new acquaintances.

Preparations for City Day 2016 have already begun: the city authorities, in collaboration with art groups, are working on the project. All that remains is to be in anticipation of a noisy and cheerful holiday, where everyone is a welcome and important guest.

On City Day the clouds will clear over Moscow

In honor of City Day, the clouds in Moscow will clear away, reports Gismeteo. The sky over the capital will be clear for two days - September 10 and 11.

10 planes will prepare the skies for the capital’s birthday. Among them are one Yak-42 meteorological laboratory aircraft of Roshydromet and nine Air Force aircraft - An-12 and An-26. Aircraft will begin clearing clouds over Moscow at 4 a.m. on Saturday.

Different types of clouds are “dispelled” with different reagents. Typically, liquid nitrogen, carbon dioxide or silver iodide cartridges are used, which penetrate the cloud to a depth of 2 kilometers. If the clouds are convective, powdered reagents are sprayed, which are dropped in packages and open in flight. The exact type of reagent for clearing the sky on Moscow City Day will be chosen on the spot, on the morning of September 10.
