Tsaritsyno will become the venue for the Circle of Light festival. Tickets for the “Circle of Light” are only for members of the Bolshoi and Maly Theaters. timeless light show

A few days before the start of the Circle of Light festival, information about the sale of tickets to Krylatskoye appeared on completely different Internet sites. The sellers assured that the ticket gave the owner the right to attend the show as a VIP. Ticket prices started at 1.5 thousand rubles and reached, at some venues, up to 8 thousand. The festival organizers emphasize that admission to all events will be free, and ticket sellers are nothing more than scammers. However, there is one caveat.

According to the organizers, all five open areas are available to everyone, without any restrictions. In other words, no tickets, invitations, etc. Not needed. Anyone can come and watch the show. The only site that differs from the rest is the Rowing Canal in Krylatskoye. And the point is not that this is where the most colorful action of unprecedented proportions will take place, but that the stands will initially be located on this site. In order not to create unnecessary excitement and somehow control the large mass of people, it was decided to close them off and provide access to the stands only with special invitation cards.

“Entrance to all sites of the Moscow International Festival “Circle of Light” is free to visit. In 2018, the grandstand is only at the Grebnoy Canal site in Krylatskoye. Invitation tickets can be won by participating in competitions held in the official communities of the Circle of Light festival. Tickets will also be raffled off from the festival’s media partners: for example, Avtoradio in morning broadcast, « Children's radio", "Humor FM" and other radio stations. Traditionally, Muscovites can become ticket holders by participating in a special event of the “Active Citizen” project. Other tickets are distributed through government agencies, charity organisations and social institutions,” the press service of the Moscow international festival “Circle of Light” told the Krylatskoe.ru portal.

They also explained that all such invitations indicate that “tickets are not for sale.”

“Everyone who tries to sell tickets to the Circle of Light festival events is committing fraud,” the organizers emphasized.

Apparently, tickets to the stands of the Grebnoy Canal are sold by those who received them by participating in various kinds of events and projects. At the same time, purchasing such tickets “not for sale” carries a rather high risk. The fact is that among the sellers there may be real scammers who sell non-existent tickets, for example, those printed on a color printer, or electronic ones. Since tickets were not on sale in principle, buying them in person could lead to problems. Controllers will check them and not allow into the stands those people who have “counterfeits” on their hands. At the same time, it is impossible to prove that you purchased them legally, since, as already emphasized above, they were not put on sale.

Moscow international festival“Circle of Light” will take place in Moscow from September 21 to 25. A total of five open areas will be used: Tsaritsyno, Kolomenskoye, theatre square, "Museum of Victory on Poklonnaya Hill"and the Rowing Canal in Krylatskoye.
