Arirang Festival
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Arirang Festival is held in the Rungnado May Day Stadium in Pyongyang, North Korea to celebrate the late Communist leader Kim Il-sung's birthdate on 15 April. The opening event of the two month festival are the mass games, which are famed for the huge pictures and frescos created by thousands of very well trained and disciplined school children holding up coloured cards as well as the complex and highly choreographed group routines performed by thousands of gymnasts and dancers.
