Victory Day closings and Red Square

[countrytb]

We will be in Moscow May 8-11. Victory Day is May 9th. We have read that Red Square can be closed for days around this holiday. Is there anyway to find out the dates Red Square will be closed? I expect it to be off limits the 8th and 9th but was hoping it would open back up the day after or the 11th. Is everything else closed as well on the 9th? We have tickets to the Bolshoi that evening but are trying to plan what else we can to that day. Its hard when I don't know what if anything is open. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

This is a very eventful day. You better think about and book in advance.
