This year, for the first time in history, the New Wave festival will be held in Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan, from August 21 to 26
To hold this large-scale event, which promises to be a real celebration for all connoisseurs of quality music, a special venue, the New Wave Hall, will be built in Kazan next to the Kazan Family Center. Since the hall's capacity is only two and a half thousand people, it is recommended to purchase tickets for the opening of the festival in advance.
The New Wave Festival, which has long been traditional and helps to identify new talents, always begins with a bright and memorable concert. This happened last year in Sochi and will be repeated this year in Kazan. Outstanding artists of our country will perform their most popular hits on stage.
Applications from participants are still being accepted. According to the festival rules, performers aged 16 to 35 years old, representing any genre and format: solo, duets, ensembles or groups, can take part. This season will certainly become a significant event in the world of popular music, and an authoritative jury will select the best of the best to present the three main awards. In addition, viewers will be able to express their sympathy and choose their favorite contestant to receive the Audience Choice Award.
