How Do Russians Celebrate the New Year?

Publish date: 2024-07-10
Welcome to a St. Petersburg family for a traditional celebration of the New Year. As Russians do not celebrate Christmas on December 25, New Year’s Eve is the main festival.

Young people tend to have dinner with their parents before going out to party with their friends after midnight.

… we have a small favor to ask.

As you may have heard, The Moscow Times, an independent news source for over 30 years, has been unjustly branded as a "foreign agent" by the Russian government. This blatant attempt to silence our voice is a direct assault on the integrity of journalism and the values we hold dear.

We, the journalists of The Moscow Times, refuse to be silenced. Our commitment to providing accurate and unbiased reporting on Russia remains unshaken. But we need your help to continue our critical mission.

Your support, no matter how small, makes a world of difference. If you can, please support us monthly starting from just 2. It's quick to set up, and you can be confident that you're making a significant impact every month by supporting open, independent journalism. Thank you.
