Heart to Heart charity football match and gala concert
Izhorets Sports Complex, Kolpinsky District (27, Tverskaya Ulitsa, Kolpino)
Kolpino, designated a City of Military Glory for its role in the Second World War, will play host to an amateur football match held as part of the St. Petersburg International Economic Forum’s sporting programme. Among those stepping out onto the pitch will be some of Russia’s best variety performers, figures representing the Russian footballing community, politicians, and members of Russia’s security services. There will also be a number of entertainment areas, and guests will be able to enjoy a tasting event featuring various national dishes, and performances by popular Russian variety stars.
The Heart to Heart charity football match and concert manages to bring in millions in donations each year, which go towards medical care for those in need. This year’s event will be in aid of children living in St. Petersburg (including Kolpino).
The event is open to all Forum participants, and can also be accessed by invitation.
