The Days of Moscow has become the most large-scale event of the EXPO exhibition in Dubai. Tens of thousands of people have visited it, according to the website of the Moscow House of Compatriots. Moscow's Mayor Sergei Sobyanin opened the program.

The Moscow Symphony Orchestra conducted by Mikhail Shekhtman performed in Dubai for the first time. Opera soloists from Russia also took to the stage. 

The main trends in the tourism sector - digitalization, authenticity, locality, individuality and travel safety, as well as urban development, were discussed at the forum.

As a result, a cooperation program between the Russian capital and Abu Dhabi was signed at the forum site. The provisions of the program provide for close interaction in many areas.

The events included in the Days of Moscow program are aimed at developing cooperation between the Russian capital and the UAE in the field of economy, investment and culture. The program included the opening of an exhibition of contemporary Russian artists, master classes and events for young spectators and participants.
