Nizhny Novgorod residents are being sold tickets for river cruises with fireworks that will not take place.

      May 8, 2026 11:59 Society Residents and guests of Nizhny Novgorod are offered river cruises with a view of the fireworks on May 9, which will not take place this year. The information was published on the website of one of the ticket operators. Passengers are promised an exciting cruise on a vessel along the Volga. During the trip, they are guaranteed not only to enjoy picturesque views and listen to the history of the city's main attractions but also to watch the festive fireworks dedicated to the Victory Day celebrations. However, there is one nuance - the fireworks display on May 9 will not take place this year. Nevertheless, this fact does not prevent operators from selling tickets with enticing promises and photographs. In reviews, users ask whether there will be fireworks this year, to which a representative of the organization confidently replies that the festive fireworks "are traditionally expected at 10:00 PM."
