Every year a small town in every region of Belarus hosts Dazhynki – an agricultural festival that has become the highlight of every autumn in the country. It is a celebration of the yearly harvest and the people who have worked on it. One can say it is a certain equivalent of the Thanksgiving festival in the United States or some European harvest festivals. It is an honour for local authorities to host the festival and a great responsibility too.

– How is the town preparing for the festivities?

– Actually, preparation started a year ago and a lot has been already done. A new spacious amphitheatre has been built and the railway station has been renovated. The ancient church we are so proud of has been restored.

– I see you are renovating residential buildings too.

– Definitely! The houses are being painted, the windows are being replaced and the area is being cleaned.

– As far as I know, more than 2,000 builders have been working on the construction of the new facilities and the reconstruction of the old ones in the run-up to the festival.

– That is true. Local companies have been taking an active part in the preparations and the residents of the town have been holding weekly clean-up days. The bus station has been totally rebuilt and has already been opened. Regular bus service to Minsk will be provided during the festival.

– I understand it is the final stage of the preparations. What else is happening in the town?

– The roads are being covered with new asphalt and new tiles are being put in place of the old ones. The playgrounds are being repaired and redecorated. Five kilometers of trading stalls are being put up to be available for the participants and guests of the festival. The transportation structure is being prepared to support the festival including roads in and around the town. The railroad from Minsk is being reconstructed.

– We can easily see that a lot of money has been and is being spent on the reconstruction of the town.

– There is no lack of resources and there is no lack of willing helpers. This year’s Dazhynki is going to be a success, no doubt.
