Far Eastern Easter Music Festival Khabarovsk in Khabarovsk
Since 2024, the Far Eastern Easter Festival has brought the Mariinsky Theatre's touring opera and orchestral program to Khabarovsk each spring, part of a four-city circuit alongside Vladivostok, Komsomolsk-on-Amur, and Yuzhno-Sakhalinsk. Gala concerts built from opera excerpts, including Ruslan and Lyudmila, Prince Igor, Carmen, and The Queen of Spades, anchor the Khabarovsk program at the regional philharmonic.
For a region as far from Moscow as Russia's Far East, access to top-tier classical music programming has never been a given, which is part of what makes the Far Eastern Easter Festival worth paying attention to.
