Slavonic Bazaar in Vitebsk opened on 10 July

International press centre opened at the "Slavonic Bazaar in Vitebsk". This year's forum is saturated with vibrant and diverse activities and new projects, said First Deputy Minister of Culture of Belarus Irina Dryga during the opening of the press centre.
"We wanted this festival to preserve its traditions and core events, which have given Belarus and other countries a lot of young talented performers. This year though the festival is more diverse, for example, there are new puppet theatre and jazz shows. The format of the festival also allows for solo concerts of popular performers and bands. But the classical base of the festival remains the same, which makes our festival of the highest cultural level," Irina Dryga said.
