This year RUDN University is celebrating its 60th anniversary.

This is not such a serious age for a university, but for a person, it is definitely an important date in life. And the celebration of the sixtieth is more like a meeting of friends; these are memories and gifts dear to the heart from those closest to us.

According to the old and good tradition, students and graduates will prepare a large gala concert. It will be a hearty and sincere evening, a holiday for all graduates, teachers, staff, students and friends of the University. Over the years, the RUDN family has grown and still continues to grow, so the whole world will gather at the Kremlin's 60th anniversary.

What is there prepared for guests?

Quite a bit remained until the brightest and most sincere evening of the year comes. On 8 February already, close friends from almost all over the world, united by love for RUDN University, will gather in the concert hall of the Kremlin.
