In the Vitebsk region, "Dazhynki" will change format and combine two holidays
– We are combining the regional "Dazhynki" with the Day of National Unity for the first time. And it should be a real celebration that will be remembered for a long time by the residents of Glubokoye, the neighboring districts, and those who will come here on this day, including guests from neighboring Lithuania and Latvia, – noted Vladimir Terentyev, Chairman of the Vitebsk Regional Council of Deputies.
A concert by Honored Artist of the Republic of Belarus Irina Dorofeeva, the play "Paulyanka" by the Yanka Kupala National Academic Theater, and performances by other creative groups are planned at all venues of the district center.
For now, as befits a host, the city is being beautified to receive guests. Kilometers of asphalt pavement have been laid, sidewalks have been made, and the finishing of all construction sites is nearing completion. But after "Dazhynki," the work on improving the city and bringing the social sphere in order will not stop in 2022 and in the following years. In particular, the repair of the district hospital and courtyard areas will continue.
The only change that will affect the regional "Dazhynki" is that Vitebsk region will sum up the results of the agricultural year not in Glubokoye, but in Vitebsk – on the eve of the Day of Agricultural Workers.
– Firstly, we have a diversified agriculture, and the regional administration decided to hold the final awards ceremony for a general agrarian holiday. Secondly, in recent years, it has been very cold during the regional "Dazhynki" festivals. We would like people to receive their well-deserved awards and watch the concert in a cozy warm hall, not in the biting cold, as it used to be. In the meantime, from September 17 to the 3rd Saturday of November, each district will hold its own "Dazhynki" to honor the frontrunners. The best of the best will receive state, government, and regional awards in Vitebsk, – noted Vladimir Vladimirovich.
