The sites of the Literature of Pacific Russia (LiTR) festival will work next year not only in Russia, but also in China and South Korea. The third forum will take place from May 21 to May 23 in Vladivostok, it is traditionally held with the support of the Russkiy Mir Foundation, the Year of Literature website reports.

The programs of the new festival expanded the number of themes and geographic locations - in Vladivostok, more venues are involved than at previous festivals. There will also be more participants and viewers. The organizers hope that the opening of venues in China and South Korea will help to spread the information about the forum. The number of foreign guests, who will take part in the main events of LiTR, will also grow. 

According to the director of the Far Eastern branch of the Russkiy Mir Foundation Alexander Zubritsky, festival venues in China will be located in Harbin and Changchun. The partners in China and South Korea show interest in modern Russian literature and its popularization, Zubritsky added.
