event: 10th Youth Celebration
This weekend (June 29 - July 1 2007) is Estonia’s 10th Youth Song and Dance Celebration. Just like the song festivals that take place here every five years, this event draws quite a crowd. Tickets are still available, though, so if you’re in Estonia you really should go.
I actually live next to Kalevi stadium, where most of the events will take place. I’ve been hearing noises coming from that direction all day, and couldn’t help but notice the large groups of people walking along Juhkentali and Liivalaia (not to mention the police patrol). It’s raining at the moment, but oh how I’m hoping the weather clears up by tomorrow evening!
Oh, and I’ll pass along this tip: Buy the standing tickets. They’re less expensive and usually it’s so crowded that those who paid for seats have to stand anyway.
Good tip about tickets. I hope the weather is good for you tonight - will you be posting a report on the event on your blog?

But of course! I’ve got my camera, camcorder, and a fabulous green “raincoat” (umbrellas are not allowed and it still looks like rain) all ready to go.
