Day of the Republic of Karelia. Republic Karelia Day Karelia Day program

Karelia celebrates the traditional Republic Day, which is an official holiday. The celebration begins in the distant 1920. On June 8, 1920, the official document of the All-Russian Central Executive Committee “On the formation of the Karelian Labor Commune” was signed, which gave the people the right to self-determination and proclaim the statehood of the Republic of Karelia. The territorial composition of the Karelian Republic finally defined its borders and acquired the status of an independent region, preserving traditions, culture and language.

Later in 1999, the Chairman of the regional government gave approval and signed legislative act No. 346 “On the establishment of the Day of the Republic of Karelia.” The adoption of this law was due to the proclamation of Sergei Katanandov to the post of governor. It was he who sought to attract investment to the region on the eve of a major republican event. The funds raised were used for the construction and reconstruction of large facilities, the arrangement of kindergartens, hospitals, and other public places for social purposes. The choice of the day and month of the holiday is determined by weather conditions. In summer it is warm in Karelia, which will allow more guests to come.

Karelia has a developed industrial base, among which the metallurgical and woodworking industries, mining, and paper industry predominate. However, most Russians perceive Karelia as a beautiful northern region with charming landscapes. From year to year the flow of tourists wishing to spend their holidays in the Republic is increasing. Particularly popular are water, auto and bicycle tourism, fishing and hunting. Lakes Onega and Ladoga allow tourists to take cruises on ships in the summer. In winter, Karelia attracts with skiing, snowmobiling, reindeer and dog sledding.

During the reign of Alexander Khudilainen, the celebration of Republic Day began to take place in different regions of the republic alternately. Local authorities of the republican subjects received the innovation with delight. This made it possible to attract additional funding to the districts, and therefore, the opportunity arose for reconstruction, construction of new buildings, and landscaping of territories. So, on the eve of the republican holiday, large cinemas, libraries, and hospitals were built. The holiday gradually received the status of “folk”.

Among the places where festive events are held one can name the settlement of Pryazha, located on the shore of Lake Pryazhinskoye, the cities of Kondopoga, Sortavala, Kostomuksha, Olonets. On its birthday, Karelia is traditionally visited by famous, important guests from Moscow and thousands of ordinary people from various regions. The festive program is enriched and improved every year. There are all kinds of exhibitions, pop concert programs, presentations of know-how achievements, and all kinds of design technologies.

". For the fifth year in a row, the Days of the Republic of Karelia are held in different regions; since 2013, the location of the celebration is determined based on the results of a competitive selection. The holiday has already been held in Pryazha, Kondopoga, Sortavala and Kostomuksha. This time the guests are hosted by Olonets, where the main celebrations will take place on June 10. Unlike all other cities where the Republic Day was held, Olonets has its own holiday logo - a birch bark sharkunok. This is a new brand of the Olonets region and the republic.
