The Russian Culture Festival 2019
In October and November 2019, the Russian Culture Festival “Russian Autumn” is coming to Hong Kong for the 3rdtime.
From its inception in 2017, the Russian Culture Festival strives to become a Russian cultural trademark in Hong Kong. Its organizer, the Russian Club in Hong Kong, aims to showcase the rich Slavic culture to the Hong Kong community.
