    Yoshkar-Ola

On Sunday, February 22, the capital will turn into a real playground of folk fun, where everyone will find entertainment to their liking.

Shirokaya Maslenitsa is the last four days of Shrovetide week, when the streets of the city are filled with joy, songs, dances and games. This is a time when the whole family can have fun, eat pancakes and spend the winter with dignity. 

Exciting rides, contests, folk amusements and the burning of an effigy of winter are waiting for you. The program includes lively performances, games for all ages and delicious pancakes. 

The party will be held outside, so dress warmly and come for a good mood!

Very soon we will tell you about the program in detail. See you at the celebration!
