The Youth Point festival, which brought together about 800,000 residents and guests of the capital of all ages, ended on Bolotnaya Square. It was held as part of the project "Summer in Moscow" from May 25 to September 14.
"This summer, the Youth Point festival became a center of attraction for everyone who loves creativity, sports and active recreation. More than a thousand events were organized for residents and guests of the capital: plein airs, master classes in drawing and decorative techniques, quests, sports meetings, creative classes for children and adults and much more," said
Ekaterina Dragunova, Chairman of the capital's Committee for Public Relations and Youth Policy.
From painting to roller skating
Each guest could choose an activity to their liking — from open-air painting and sketching to quilling, collage making and water painting. Participants learned to grow microgreens, paint T-shirts, weave bracelets and do much more. The festival featured free lectures by experts in the field of design and business. In addition, guests of the "Youth Point" met with representatives of the professional football club CSKA, competed in a family quest, took pictures with a large art object "Youth Cat" and took summer photos in a photo booth.
"I am very glad that such a space was opened on Bolotnaya Square. My daughter and I often come here, because this place is important for our family. It was here in 2009 that my husband and I got married. There were many different master classes at the festival: for example, we grew microgreens, danced on the rollerdrome and watched a roller skating show," shared Nadezhda Laikova, a participant of the "Youth Point" festival.
As part of the "Youth of Moscow. City of Heroes" program, open meetings and sports training with participants of the special military operation (SVO) and heroes of Russia were held at the festival site. Among them were volunteer of the "Bars" detachment Igor Nosov, combat veteran Nikolai Markushin, SVO participant Ivan Bakai and director of the military-patriotic education center "Vershina" Ivan Bondyukov.
From concerts to film screenings
Every week, the festival rollerdrome hosted discos with DJs, concerts by famous artists and young bands, open-air film screenings, and free roller skating for everyone. Mot, Tosya Chaikina, and the bands Pizza, Gradusy, Room of Culture, and Ay Yola performed on the big stage.
On the Day of the State Flag of the Russian Federation, visitors saw a performance by the Toloka ensemble with Russian folk songs collected during ethnographic expeditions. Everyone could join creative master classes and classes in various types of choreography at the ballroom dancing evening, and a roller skating show was arranged for guests at the roller disco.
The stage also brought together participants of the creative camp "Youth of Moscow" for the final gala concert. The program included musical numbers, choreographic productions and stage compositions created under the guidance of professional teachers and producers.
The live music evenings “Non-classical Classics”, the concert of the Nella Musica Orchestra symphony orchestra, and the film music festival “Soundtrack” were especially popular with the guests. All of them were held in the open air.
"I liked the master classes with a rich program, especially interested in the gamers' zone with table football and ping-pong. The most vivid impression was the concert of the Nella Musica Orchestra symphony orchestra: live classical music in the open air created a very special atmosphere. Thank you for the opportunity to spend such a rich summer," said Nikita Zelenin, a participant of the Molodezhnaya Tochka festival.
Open training sessions, board games and speed dating were held on the veranda of the main festival pavilion. A special program dedicated to yoga and mindfulness practice was also organized here. Guests trained in the open air and learned breathing techniques. The classes became part of a performance show accompanied by musical instruments.
Holidays on Bolotnaya Square
Bolotnaya Square became the main venue for the Youth Day festival on June 28 and 29. Guests could join morning exercises, bike training, master classes, lectures and meetings with popular bloggers. The festival also featured dance flash mobs, creative processions, performances by young artists and the Moscow Youth Cup in KVN.
In addition, the Youth Point festival hosted events dedicated to significant state and city holidays. On Children's Day, Russia Day, Russian National Flag Day and Moscow City Day, thematic programs were organized for residents and guests of the capital. The festival ended with a large student disco and a concert featuring Antokha MC, DJ Groove, DJ Calypso, and singer Hanna.
The Youth Point festival was organized by the Moscow Youth project Committee on Public Relations and Youth Policy.
