A ten-meter entrance arch with the city's coat of arms will appear in Vitebsk
Currently, builders are reconstructing the boulevard on Kirov Street. New tiles are being laid here, and modern lighting is being installed. An entrance arch is being erected from the railway station side: it will feature decor and an image of the Order of the Red Banner of Labour and a fragment of the decree awarding it to the city. The alley will be decorated with flowerbeds, small architectural forms, and a sculpture dedicated to young lovers. Benches will be installed on the boulevard. "The height of the arch, including the coat of arms of Vitebsk in the center, will be ten meters," added the chief engineer of the city's Capital Construction Department, Sergey Polsky.
During the festival-fair, several venues will be organized in the city center. The main events will unfold on Freedom and Victory Squares, in and around the Summer Amphitheater. The preliminary program of the celebration includes a procession of agricultural workers from Victory Square to the Summer Amphitheater, where the award ceremony and concert will take place. "Dazhynki" also intends to host exhibitions of agricultural machinery and achievements of the agro-industrial complex, organize thematic sites, and the farmsteads of the Vitebsk region districts will be open.
The traditional regional "Dazhynki" are planned to be held on September 26 this year. In Vitebsk, several important facilities have already been built and opened in preparation for the holiday: the Polotsk overpass, the road connecting Builders Avenue with the Bilevo microdistrict, the renovated Freedom Square, and a secondary school. A football arena will also soon open in the city.
