26 May in 10:20
Today Georgian people celebrate Independence Day, commemorating May 26, 1918 – the day when the Act of Independence was adopted and which established the First Democratic Republic of Georgia.
Due to the coronavirus pandemic, fewer ceremonies will be held on the day, unlike earlier years when multiple events would be held both in Tbilisi and in the regions.
Various armored vehicles are present in central Tbilisi for the day. The presentation will be closed by the flight of Su-25 fighter jets.
At 14:00, the funeral ceremony of Georgia s national hero and commander-in-chief of the first Democratic Republic of Georgia, General Giorgi Kvinitadze will take place in Holy Trinity Cathedral who will be later buried in Mtatsminda Pantheon. His remains have been returned from France to Georgia last week.
