Yuri's Night Celebrations
 
#9
Yuri's Night in the Jovian colonies (predominately Browncoats) tend to be somewhat like Memorial Day and Labor Day in the United States: most people have the day off unless they're in survival-critical fields, and it's basically a day to get together with friends and families for a "picnic", for a given value of picnic, although some of the foodstuffs consumed will veer into the distinctly Russian depending on tastes. Some of the settlements will have something of a larger community celebration, with the atmosphere of a county fair, complete with games, a dance pavilion, and otherwise having a reasonably fun time.

Jupiter Mining Corporation tends to schedule their deliveries in such a way that Yuri's Night is effectively a day of "downtime" for the company, with a number of their Blue Midgets tending to come in for preventive maintenance the week before and the week after. Any that are out "in the field" will put to the closest port for the day. Most of the ships have their own little individual ways of celebrating the holiday.
