It's a very nice tradition - to meet Father Frost in Moscow before the NY Eve. This year Father Frost will be met in the Gorky park - the park of entertainment, where in winter almost all the roads become huge wonderful rink - for skating which is so popular in Russia. Father Frost will be met with the parade where the characters of fairy tale will appear.
Traditionally Russian Father Frost has a helper, it is not a deer or a snowman, but ... a snow girl called Snegurochka (Snow Maiden). She is granddaughter of Father Frost and usually accompanies him during the holidays.
