Anticipation and celebration: the way the festive greetings were received in Tomsk
Lighting up Tomsk on Victory Day
Haven't savored the spectacle of fireworks for quite a few years, but Tomsk, the Siberian city, broke the streak on May 9th, celebrating Victory Day in style.
This time, the festivities found a fresh venue – the plaza fronting the Tomsk Drama Theater, a change from the traditional Lagernyi Garden. Would you believe it? A sea of Tomsk residents thronged the area, and our estimate puts the crowd at tens of thousands strong.
Our shutterbug was there too, battling the traffic, capturing the heart-stopping moments for all to witness. Here's a glimpse of what went down!
Now, in case you're itching to know the why and how behind Tomsk ditching its old fireworks spot, we might not have all the juicy details – the web isn't too revealing when it comes to specifics on Tomsk's previous fireworks display or the 2022 relocation. To nail down the nitty-gritty, it's best to consult reliable local news sources or, if you prefer official information, check out announcements from the city of Tomsk itself.
The plaza fronting the Tomsk Drama Theater turned into a hub of entertainment, with tens of thousands of Tomsk residents gathered to witness the spectacle of fireworks on Victory Day. The heart-stopping moments were captured by our shutterbug, providing a glimpse into an unforgettable evening of entertainment.
