There will be no large-scale festive events, just like in previous years.
On Monday, December 2, the main Christmas tree of the country will begin to be installed in Sofia Square.
As reported by the head of the Kyiv City State Administration, Vitali Klitschko, the relevant decision has already been made by the Kyiv Defense Council.
“The main Christmas tree of Ukraine, as in previous years, will shine in Sofia Square. It will be installed with the funds of sponsors. The capital’s Defense Council supported the initiative of LLC ‘GLOBAL-DECOR’, which proposed to set up the New Year tree on its own. ‘GLOBAL-DECOR’ will also handle both the installation and dismantling, as well as the maintenance of the tree. We will not allocate funds from the city budget,” Klitschko wrote on his Telegram channel.
The ceremonial opening of the tree in Sofia will traditionally take place on December 6 – on St. Nicholas Day. According to the mayor, a photo zone with QR codes of charitable foundations and several stalls selling only souvenir products will be set up near the tree.
There will be no large-scale festive events, fairs, or other entertainment in the capital, just like in previous years.
