    YEREVAN, October 8. /ARKA/. Concerts for the celebration of Yerevan's
    2,790th anniversary will take place in the capital on October 10-11,
    said Mayor Yervand Zakharyan at a Wednesday parliamentarian sitting.

    The city day has been annually celebrated since the city's 2,750th
    anniversary in 1968.

    Gala night and concert will take place in National Academic Opera
    and Ballet Theater after A. Spendariyan on October 10, and a holiday
    concert will be organized at Hrazdan national stadium on October 11.

    The city of Erebuni (later renamed Yerevan) was founded in the
    south-east of the Armenian Highlands in 782 BC by king of Urartu
    Argishti I. The foundation stone with a carved date of Yerevan's
    foundation is still kept in the Erebuni memorial fortress.

    Yerevan was proclaimed the capital city of the First Armenian Republic
    on May 28, 1918.
