The Great

Military Parade for

The National Day of Romania

Yesterday, on the 1st of December, Romania has celebrated the Union Day, also known as the Official National Day of Romania, asa a Nation. Each and every year, in various cities in Romania, especially in the capital city of Bucharest, the National Day is celebrated with a Great Military Parade, where thousands of soldiers from all the fields of the romanian army are marching in a synchronized manner, for which they have practiced for more than a month. Along with the troups, a long line of military machines is present, also from the various parts of the romanian army, and since Romania is part of NATO, this year, we had integrated into the parade, teams from Spain, France, USA. 

At the parade were present a great deal of officials from the political apparatus, but also from the administrative, and the religious field. The Official Ceremony was opened by the Romanian President, His Excellency Klaus Werner Johannis, who salutted the audience and also laied down a corrona of flowers in the memory of the romanian soldiers that died in the two world wars. At the ceremony was also present the Mayor of Bucharest, Nicusor Dan.

The entire parade lasted for no more than an hour, but for this a lot of people, had prepared estimatively for two months in advance. From the official data, it seems that more than one hundred thousand people were present in the audience at the Military Parade. Funny enough, immediately after the parade all the public transport was put to a standstil, because of the huge crowds present in the area. In the end, everything went well, and we remained with some very nice memories. Long live Romania!

UNTOLD Dubai promises to take the already well-known spirit of the UNTOLD Festival to new heights.

After they launched Armin van Buuren's super recital on the Burj Khalifa in August, in a super production that meant placing a stage on one of the upper platforms of the skyscraper, exposing the UNTOLD logo on the entire tower and a spectacular series of footage from the drone, until now, those from UNTOLD Dubai have already launched three stages of ticket sales, the last of them being launched on the 13th of this month. It is estimated that around 25-30 thousand tickets have been sold so far.

What is even more surprising is that the tickets were put on sale, without presenting any information about the line-up of the great festival in Dubai, which will actually be the first musical experience of this kind in Dubai. All the forums, even the official page of the event, are full of questions about the line-up, but the only information available until this moment is that the list of artists who will participate in UNTOLD Dubai will be an incendiary one.

So far, there have been a series of hints, quite veiled about a possible line-up, on the official Facebook page of the event, namely David Guetta, Martin Garrix, Robbie Williams, Bebe Rexha, or Hardwell, but it is possible that they are just some suggestions, thrown in to keep our interest burning. Not that there is any need to throw gas on the fire, especially since it is the first large-scale Romanian event to move internationally and not anywhere else but in Dubai. It is not the first example of an itinerant festival, it happened before with Coachella, with Tomorrowland, to have editions outside the already traditional locations.

The organizers of UNTOLD Dubai aim for a minimum number of 70 thousand tickets sold for the first edition of the UNTOLD Dubai Festival, a dream that is not so difficult to achieve.

The tickets were put on sale in several stages, we are currently in full swing of the third stage, initiated on October 13, 2023. The first stage was available exclusively on the basis of invitation and was reserved exclusively for those who had previously registered on the event's official website and brought with it the sale of over 10,000 tickets.

As for accommodation and transport to and in Dubai, the organizers have already made available a series of packages in collaboration with Dertour.ro, ZTour.ro, NordisTravel, FunTravel or Eturia.ro and this as solutions for the vast majority of festival goers. For those with a hand or more enthusiasm, the organizers have made available an entire hotel, Rove Expo 2020 Dubai, which is located right inside the festival. Of course, the prices are reasonable, but who cares about money, when we're talking about a festival that takes place in one of the world's most luxurious locations.
