1) Maslenitsa is a Russian holiday that dates back to pagan times. 2) Blini (pancake) feasts along with traditional amusements like snow-fortresses, snow-fights, merry-go-rounds, folklore songs and dancing will be held all over Moscow. 3) All the guests will have a chance to taste delicious pancakes made directly in Red square. 4) Those who wish to present their cooking talents will have an opportunity to compete in a pancake cooking competition. 5) The judges will estimate the cooking abilities of the competitors, counting the number of pancakes they can make without a brake. 6) On the last day of Maslenitsa all the feasting will end by burning down scarecrows symbolizing winter, thus saying good-bye to the cold season until next year.
