They actually celebrate it in November. Back in 1917 the Russians went by the Julian calendar, so the dates were in late October (around the 25th) for the revolution. Currently they follow the Gregorian calendar, so the corresponding dates happen around November 6 or 7th. How's that for Trivia?

On November 7, 1917, Bolshevik leader Vladimir Lenin led his leftist revolutionaries in a nearly bloodless uprising against the ineffective Kerensky Provisional Government. As Russia was still using the Julian Calendar at the time, period references show an October 25 date, and it's still called the October Revolution.
