Tiger Day Festival Since 2000 each September Phoenix in cooperation with a number of environmental foundations (IFAW, WCS, WWF, 21CT, WFN, STF,DSWF, FWS) organize Tiger Day. This tradition started as a small school event, which initially toddled like a tiger cub through the streets of Vladivostok. By the year 2008 Tiger Day achieved the status of krai-level holiday and today has grown to become a colourful festival that leaps boldly across the region.
