The festival, to start in mid-April, will bring together more than 80 units, including military organs, commissions, ministries and national institutions, as well as overseas compatriots and missions of other countries.

The festival organizing committee adopted "Immortal Kimilsungia which has come into full bloom with the blessing of the great sun" as the theme of the forthcoming festival and rounded off a general blueprint for the festival venue and posters.

A work is going on at the final stage to arrange the festival venue under the blueprint.

Schoolchildren and many citizens, too, have applied for participation in the festival.

Meanwhile, all provinces of the country are pushing ahead with the preparations for sponsoring Kimilsungia shows in their regions.
