Guests had the opportunity to see 15 retro trams and dozens of unique cars, many of which became iconic symbols of their time.
The event also featured a rich cultural and entertainment program, including:
- A field kitchen offering free treats, including 20,000 servings of ice cream;
- Special photo zones;
- Performances by artists from the “Music in the Metro” project, the Academic Choir of the Moscow Metro, and a special guest, Denis Maidanov.
“The Parade of Historic Trams and Cars has now taken place for the 20th time,” noted Deputy Mayor of Moscow for Transport Maksim Liksutov..
“Once again, we’ve seen tremendous interest in retro transport among residents and visitors of the capital.
“Following the instructions of Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin, we carefully preserve the history of the city’s tram system and actively work to develop this beloved mode of transport for Muscovites.”
