Rostral columns lit in St. Petersburg in honor of the Scarlet Sails holiday


Rostral columns on the Spit of Vasilyevsky Island in St. Petersburg were lit on June 29 in honor of the alumni holiday "Scarlet Sails".
The footage of the live broadcast from the city shows how the flames flare up on top of the structures.
On the evening of June 28, the alumni festival "Scarlet Sails – 2025" began in the Northern Capital. Alexander Beglov, the Governor of St. Petersburg, delivered a welcoming speech. The concert of the holiday was opened by the band 5th MORNING. And the main event of the celebration will be a water and pyrotechnic show on the Neva River with the participation of the brig Rossiya.
The Scarlet Sails holiday was revived in 2005 after a long-term hiatus on the initiative of ROSSIYA Joint Stock Bank, the Government of St. Petersburg and Channel Five.
The concert part of last year's alumni celebration "Scarlet Sails – 2024" received a silver award from one of Russia's main creative awards "Silver Mercury" in the nomination "Best Mass Event".
