The interregional creative festival of Slavic art "Russian Field" will be held in Moscow this weekend for the thirteenth time. More than 1,600 participants from 66 regions of Russia, as well as China and Uzbekistan, will take part in the event. The festival will be spread across 13 venues instead of the usual 11. Moreover, it will last for two days: on Saturday, August 30, in the concert hall of the Izmailovo complex, and on Sunday, August 31, in the Kolomenskoye reserve. New venues include "Poetic Frontier" and "Book Glade." In addition to classic readings, lectures, theatrical performances, and contests for the best author and poetry reader, visitors will be able to participate in burime composition and attend a stage speech workshop. Given that 2024 has been declared the Year of the Family, many activities are geared toward the whole family. For example, parents might be interested in cooking workshops, historical reenactments, and an ethnic fashion show, while children can enjoy various contests, games, and a special area called "Children's Fun." The Sretensky Monastery has prepared its own program for the Year of the Family, which will be presented at the "Slavic Settlement" square. Young families will likely benefit from discussions with experts on topics such as how to overcome family conflicts, how to preserve love for many years, and more. As in previous years, "Russian Field" aims to impress visitors with new records. In particular, the largest sheaf of wheat is planned to be assembled. The wheat will be brought from four fields of Russian military glory: Kulikovo, Crimea, Borodino, and Prokhorovka. Another record is also being prepared, this time culinary: "Suvorov's Porridge" will be cooked in a huge pot according to a 1799 recipe. This was the porridge eaten by Russian troops during the crossing of the Alps 225 years ago, and at the festival, it will be served to all attendees. Among the star guests performing on the main stage are Nadezhda Krygina, Pelageya, Olga Kormukhina, Irina Dubtsova, "Turetsky Choir," "PARTIZAN FM," and about a dozen other performers.
