Festival "Moscow and Muscovites. Journey through the Epochs" will take place on September 14 in the Izmailovo district. Participants will be presented with the program "Peter the Great's Moscow". Each guest will be able to get acquainted with the era of Peter the Great through a variety of cultural events.
The festival will take place at the project's district site "Summer in Moscow" at the intersection of Izmailovsky Boulevard and 9th Parkovaya Street. Starts at 12:00.
The venue was not chosen by chance: it was here, in Izmailovo, that young Pyotr Alekseevich found the famous boat "Saint Nicholas". It inspired the future reformer to create a powerful Russian fleet, which played a key role in the formation of Russia as a great maritime power and its further development.
Take a ride in a carriage and go to a ball
The central event of the festival will be a ball in the style of the 18th century. The gentlemen will be in elegant camisoles, and the ladies – in magnificent dresses decorated with lace and embroidery. Master classes in ancient dances will be held for guests. You can take a souvenir photo in a historical costume in a themed photo zone.
For lovers of active recreation, horse-drawn carriage rides await. This is an opportunity to experience the luxury of 18th century travel, enjoy nature and the living decorations of the festival.
All events will be accompanied by symphonic music. Performers will present a program inspired by the spirit of Peter the Great's Russia. In addition, instrumental folklore will be performed.
Mint a coin and tie a sailor's knot
Guests will see a bright theatrical performance. Actors will show short scenes illustrating moments from the era of Peter I. For example, viewers will learn how the famous process of cutting boyars' beards took place, which became an important symbol of the reforms of that time.
To make the immersion into history complete, the program included many master classes: coin minting, blacksmithing, writing with a quill, historical dancing, making carnival masks, and even tying sea knots.
Fans of folk games will also find a lot of interesting things for themselves. Entertainment includes the game "Igornitsa" and the themed quest "Storming the Fort", which combines relay races with safe obstacles and tactical tasks. Guests can also enjoy jumping in sacks, tug-of-war, the game "Golden Gate", trinkets, chess and checkers.
Admission to the festival is free, without age restrictions. No pre-registration is required.
