Aivazovsky at the Russian Museum, an opera at the Mariinsky or a trade fair with colleagues can each be a reason to visit Saint Petersburg. Autumn brings Metal-Expo and the Northern Palmyra Trophies tennis tournament; spring offers IPhEB and construction exhibitions. Consider how an event fits into the rest of your stay. Expoforum, the city museums, the Mariinsky Theatre and the concert arenas are in different parts of the city. Each article identifies the actual venue.
Planning your journey
Choose an event and a day first, then decide where to set off from: your hotel, apartment or airport. Include the specific venue and the number of passengers in your enquiry.
After the event
After the event, you may want to have a meal, meet friends or head straight back to your hotel. Include your plans in the enquiry and discuss the return time separately.
If you arrive via Pulkovo (LED), plan the airport-to-hotel journey separately from your trip to the event. To discuss transport with Hola Taxi, provide the date, departure address, venue and number of passengers. Include a return journey in your request if you need one.
