Celebration of Dostoevsky Day in Saint-Petersburg
Characters from the works of Russian author Fyodor Dostoevsky come to life in Saint Petersburg for the Dostoevsky Day festival.
The first Saturday in July, every July since 2010, the Dostoevsky Museum in St Petersburg has hosted Dostoevsky Day, a celebration of Dostoevsky’s life, works, and characters that has come to be a beloved annual festival in the city. The scheduled day is a reference to the beginning of Crime and Punishment, which starts on a hot day in early July.
Dostoyevsky Day will be held on Saturday the 3rd of July, 2021. There is a free admission.
If you’re not familiar with Dostoevsky Day, you can catch performances from years past on the event’s YouTube Channel, or check out photos on their Facebook or Vkontakte.
