Odessa knows how to throw celebrations without waiting for the last steamship to depart.
The number of vacationers noticeably decreases due to the start of the school year and the end of the holiday season, apartment rentals in Odessa become significantly cheaper, many hotels in Odessa also reduce accommodation prices starting August 25.
Those lucky ones who can afford to vacation in Odessa during the velvet season will fully enjoy the warm sea, gentle sun, abundance of fruit, and uncrowded beaches. But that's not all. In early September, Odessa traditionally celebrates City Days – festivities comparable in scale of fun only to Humorina.
On September 2, 2009, the eternally young beauty Odessa celebrated its 215th birthday. The celebrations and festive events traditionally last for several days. The program includes an exhibition of caricatures and cars, a theater festival dedicated to the 200th anniversary of N.V. Gogol, knight fights, and much more.
Thus, guests of Odessa in the first weeks of September are guaranteed not only the gentle southern sea and fruit, but also an interesting cultural program.
Come to Odessa, the pearl by the sea… Indeed!
