About Saint Petersburg: A Land of Football

The UEFA European Football Championship Euro 2020 will take place this summer in twelve cities and their stadiums. One of the quarterfinals will be held at the Gazprom-Arena stadium in Saint Petersburg. Three years after the World Cup, for one day a Russian city will become the centre of football life again. “Snob” and the Euro 2020 Organizing Committee present a collaborative project – a virtual walk for fans and all those who care about football and its history. This Spring we will present three multimedia routes and invite you to join us and several famous Petersburg residents, including actors, musicians, and fans, to walk on them
