During the New Year holidays, from 25 December 2025 to 4 January 2026, Father Frost’s Residence will be open at the Stalin Line complex near Minsk! Visitors can look forward to a wide range of outdoor entertainment and activities.

Before meeting General Father Frost, visitors must prove that they are ready by completing an improvised New Year training exercise. Each participant will receive a card and set off on a reconnaissance mission to the Residence’s secret sites.

After successfully completing all the challenges, guests will enter Father Frost’s headquarters, where they can meet him in person, recite a poem and take a commemorative photograph. They will also receive a personal message of encouragement and a boost of festive fighting spirit!

A special feature of Father Frost’s headquarters is the ‘wish capsule’, made from an old artillery shell case. Make a wish for the coming year, place it inside the shell case, and it is sure to come true!

Visitors can enjoy pancakes and tea at the field café and warm themselves by the campfire.

The ceremonial opening of Father Frost’s Military Residence will take place at the Stalin Line Historical and Cultural Complex at 11:00 on 25 December 2025. The programme will begin with Tank General Father Frost arriving in a Soviet T-50 light tank.

 

The Residence is open from 10:00 to 17:00; on 31 December, from 10:00 to 14:00; and on 1 January, from 12:00 to 17:00.

Come and visit us at the Residence!  We will do everything we can to make this New Year celebration truly memorable!

Admission tickets are available to all visitors on our website or from the complex ticket offices on the day of the events. There is no limit on the number of tickets available.
