Red Square for the New Year: reviews

The pride of the Russian capital is Red Square. On New Year's Eve this territory radiates a special energy. There are chimes, interesting concerts and bright salutes. What ordinary people think about entertainment in this place, you can read in the article.

Action plan

Both children and adults on the night of December 31 to January 1 are waiting for something wonderful and incredible. Of course, many want to meet the New Year in an unusual atmosphere. Therefore, more and more people instead of feasting in a narrow family circle wish to meet the holiday in the center of the country.

Annually for the metropolitan public they prepare an enchanting show, dazzling fireworks and original surprises. Meeting the New Year in Red Square is the best option for young people. In addition, such an action plan is also very economical. Vacationers do not need to spend money on holiday clothes, expensive alcoholic drinks and a sumptuous table. All guests can watch the concert program for free and spend an excellent night in a fun company.

However, in order for the celebration to succeed, it is better to go to a party at once with the whole team - this is advice from the "experienced". The fact is that in such a mass of people it is practically impossible to meet with acquaintances. Few people manage to get through on New Year's Eve. Mobile communication is practically absent.

Entertainment

The dream of many Russians is to celebrate the New Year in Moscow. On Red Square this night a lot of Santa Claus and Snow Maiden. In addition to these characters, the territory is full of other fairy-tale heroes. The dressed people are very friendly and willingly take pictures with everyone.

On the street, directly under the open sky, the folk-style cheerfully sing and dance the artists. You can dance dances and sing along. Adds mood and festive illumination. And the highlight of 2016 was a laser show, from which not only guests but also residents of the capital were delighted.

Those who are accustomed to active rest, you should meet the New Year on the rink. On Red Square he works since 2000. On a festive night, he also receives visitors. The mood is raised by good music and bright illumination. However, as the guests state, entrance prices could be lower. Also, people do not like the fact that tickets must be bought in advance, since it is almost impossible to do it on New Year's Eve .

Best Traditions

The main thing is why the people go to the square on New Year's Eve - they are salutes. Many tourists and guests of the city note that they did not see such beautiful, luxurious and long fireworks in any other capital of the world. A lot of visitors come here to feel the extraordinary, explosive energy that this place radiates.

It helps to support all the festive traditions of Red Square. On New Year's Eve every citizen of the country wants to see the appeal of the President. Especially in order not to miss this event, the concert stops, which starts at 22 hours. So that people can hear his speech, hang giant screens. It is very convenient - this is evidenced by those who have been there.

It should be noted that alcoholic beverages are not sold on the territory. If you do not imagine a holiday without champagne, you can drink it at home or after leaving the square.

Usually the crowd diverge closer to four in the morning.

New rules

At the end of 2015, an unpleasant surprise was awaiting the inhabitants of Russia. The authorities decided that a limited number of people would be able to meet the holiday on the square. A certain part of the invitations came personally. On December 31, the "Blue Light" was shot here - a program that has already become a bright part of the country's history.

However, many people make loud statements about the fact that the Red Square for New Year limits access for other reasons. They are sure that this is done only for the sake of getting less people not of Slavic appearance.

Indeed, many visitors do not like the fact that the company of guest workers is resting nearby. Other guests are sure that representatives of another nationality have the right to celebrate here, as well as the indigenous residents of the capital. And to deprive them of such an opportunity is wrong, inhumane.

Friendly law enforcement officers

Many visitors complain that the square is a constant crush. Even limiting the number of people invited does not help keep the crowd under control. But almost all who visited there also state that there is practically no drunken audience. Usually walks a lot of young, cheerful companies. Law enforcement officers perfectly follow the order. Many policemen consider it an honor to celebrate the New Year in Red Square. Photos with young officers make all comers. Men and women in uniform are very welcoming and willingly posing in front of the cameras.

Do not please visitors and prices for goods. The cost of hot drinks, food and souvenirs is significantly overestimated. Also, many people are spoiled by the mood of winter without snow. Muscovites and guests of the capital used to see the city in snowdrifts. And in recent years, the weather is not happy. But the warm temperature allows you longer fun and do not freeze.

Holiday Details

Regardless of the year, people share what they never managed to get to the main square of the country. The reason is that the entrance is controlled by the police, who are given orders. If the territory is overcrowded, the gate for new visitors is closed.

We have to go through the metal detector. The queue here is very long. Guardians of law have the right to look in their bags and search people. They withdraw alcohol. Holidaymakers share the fact that it is very rare to deceive the police and carry alcohol with them. Therefore, we have to meet the New Year on Red Square, even without a bottle of champagne.

Many holidaymakers remained to celebrate in the vicinity. However, very often, even a hundred meters from the center, because of the noise, salutes and music, you can not hear what almost everything came for - the battle of the chimes. But aside, you can easily enjoy a sparkling drink made from plastic utensils. Almost nobody follows the illegal use of pyrotechnics. Therefore, over and over again, under the feet, firecrackers explode. There were cases when ordinary passers-by were delivered with burns to hospitals.

Negative sides

As you know, in cold and windy weather, the frost penetrates to the bones. Therefore, many visitors return home with a cold. Those who rest in the center not for the first time, recommend dressing in the first place is not beautiful, but warm and comfortable.

For many people, the cherished dream is to celebrate the New Year on Red Square. Reviews about the celebration itself are often negative. Guests say that the main disadvantage of this action is that expectations do not justify reality. Not only that the concert program in some years was extremely monotonous and boring, so even to those who come later, the first thing that catches your eye - piles of rubbish and broken glass.

Many, knowing that you can not bring alcohol to the territory, get drunk right before the entrance. Therefore, inadequate citizens spoil the holiday to everyone around them.

Public transport or own car?

Cars are parked in the neighboring streets. However, many want to leave the car closer to the area - this is noted by holidaymakers. Even if you park an iron horse on an empty road, you need to be prepared for the fact that after the festivities it will be blocked. In this case, you have to go home on foot, by taxi or by public transport, which is full of drunken, sometimes excessively friendly, passengers.

Many guests say that very much tires the Red Square. On the New Year, it should be noted, in a convenient mode of transport. Therefore, to leave a mass party and continue the holiday at home - it's very easy.

Metro is usually open until 2:00 at night, and buses run to 3. After that, the transport stops for a short break, and in the morning it again delivers tired passengers in the normal mode. Both the guests of the capital and the indigenous people positively assess its work. After all, public transport allows you to easily and economically get from any part of Moscow to the center. Therefore, you do not have to take your own car and subsequently look for a parking spot.

Tips for Beginners

Those who visited here on a festive night, recommend to stock up not with alcohol, but with hot drinks. It is better to take tea or coffee with you in the thermos. Such a container the police misses without problems. Another tip: you need to get to the place before 10 pm. After all, after this time, usually the territory is already filled to the eyeballs.

How to celebrate the New Year in Red Square, well know and the residents of the capital. The security is friendly, but harsh, so they will not allow food and champagne to go with them. However, people who have not once walked in the capital, share that a tasty snack - perhaps. Many visitors leave food in the car, to which they later return. Quitting hunger and thirst, they again continue to walk around Moscow. However, you should know that once again getting into the center is extremely difficult.

Impressions of the celebration on Red Square is a memory for a lifetime. Such an event can be proud of and brag to friends and family.
