Over 5,000 people joined the National Unity Day celebration in Kremlin Square. Together we celebrated a holiday that reminds us that our strength lies in unity. The festive program "Time-Tested Unity" was rolled out in the square, and the "National Unity Day" universal fair was held. And the city-wide event "Tea traditions of the peoples of Russia" became especially hot - tea was prepared for the residents of Vologda and the guests of the city based on various ingredients that reflect the traditions of the peoples of Russia. In this simple gesture there is true unity. I thank all the creative teams, the participants of the fair, the volunteers, the representatives of the national associations, the public organizations, the partners and of course the spectators who became a part of this significant event. You made the holiday really lively and full of soul. Our president declared 2026 as the year of the unity of the peoples of Russia. It is symbolic that today we celebrate the Day of the Kazan Icon of the Mother of God. Our unity has developed over hundreds of years, and the diversity of cultures is the foundation on which the country stands. And that is our common strength. The holiday was held as part of the governor's event project "Autumn of the Russian North". Happy holiday, residents of Vologda! Take care of each other and be united. Sergey Zhestyannikov at MAX.
