Colorful murals always bring vibrancy and life to streets and neighborhoods, and today they are becoming a unique highlight of the World Cup season in Russia. These graffiti pieces blend seamlessly with the festive and joyful atmosphere of the host country this year.

Graffiti is a form of street art that expresses free and boundless creativity. Graffiti artists have breathed life into the dull walls of Russian cities, transforming them into vibrant and colorful spectacles. One example is a graffiti artwork with a 2018 World Cup theme near the Spartak Stadium in Pokrovskoye-Streshnevo, Moscow.
