Russian Flag Day
August 22, 2025-August 22, 2025 -
Russia, Russia
Russian Flag Day is every 22 August. The celebrations each year only get better! And they should. Today marks the anniversary of a modern, independent Russia after a failed coup by hardliners and the disintegration of the Soviet Union. What does the national flag have to do with this watershed moment in history? It turns out, everything! It’s a no-brainer that national flags symbolize the essence of a nation. But you know the story will be doubly intriguing when it involves Russia and how the national flag came to be. Those innocuous white, blue, and red stripes are symbols of the country’s evolution through history. Russia goes all out every year and celebrates the day with lectures, concerts, exhibitions, and state events.
