Saint Petersburg City Day
St Petersburg celebrates its birthday on May 27th. It was on this day in 1703 that the construction of the city on the Neva began. The celebrations usually last for several days. The program includes concerts, carnival processions, exhibitions, sports competitions and various shows.
The holiday unites Petersburgers and guests of the city, everyone who has special, reverent feelings for the Northern capital. Unique architectural ensembles, beautiful bridges and embankments impress people from all over the world.
Engineers, scientists and architects, whose professional path was inextricably linked with SPbGASU, took part in shaping the unique image of the Northern capital. And today, thanks to the skill of teachers, specialists with modern knowledge and competencies emerge from the walls of one of the oldest technical universities in the country – architects, builders, lawyers, economists, road builders, who will continue the work of their predecessors.
