School graduates this year will have a large-scale concert in St. Petersburg, as well as a water-pyrotechnic show in the Neva water area with the participation of the main symbol of the holiday — the brig "Russia" under scarlet sails.
"Scarlet Sails" is one of the highlights of the Northern capital. Every year graduates, their parents, residents and guests of the city gather on the embankments of the Neva to see a grand show, fireworks and passage of the brig "Russia". The Fifth Channel is broadcasting from the scene.
The holiday "Scarlet Sails" appeared in Leningrad in 1968, but after a few years the tradition was interrupted. In 2005 it was revived. In 2025, the audience of the holiday worldwide reached 45.7 million people, taking into account television, the Internet and coverage in international orbit. This result was a record for the entire history of the project.
In 2026, Yelka, Tatyana Kurtukova, Julianna Karaulova, Lyusya Chebotina, Alex Lim, Alyona Sviridova and Grigory Miroshnichenko, Filatov & Karas, TRITIA group, Julia Peresild and MANDRAGORA group will perform in front of graduates.
The hosts of the evening were Nika Zdorik, Sergey Gorodnichy, Julianna Karaulova, Vyacheslav Makarov and Dasha Alexandrova.
