On August 21, 2025, the grand opening of the New Wave festival will take place in Kazan, in the New Wave Hall

"New Wave" is not just a music festival, but a significant platform that unites performers from different parts of the world and gives the audience an unforgettable experience. The main mission of the festival is to discover new talents on the music scene, support young artists and strengthen cultural ties between countries. For many years, this event has served as a launching pad for aspiring musicians, allowing them to make a name for themselves on the international stage. This year, Kazan is ready to welcome the participants and guests of the festival on a grand scale. The opening promises to be a real holiday for all lovers of modern music.

The line-up of the opening is impressive in its diversity and scale: Philipp Kirkorov, Irina Allegrova, Nikolai Baskov, Stas Mikhailov and Sergey Lazarev are just some of the stars who will take the stage. Their performances will be a bright highlight of the evening, filling it with positive emotions. Guests of the event will be able to enjoy both new compositions and all their favorite hits. The variety of musical genres – from pop to rock and chanson – will allow everyone to find something to their liking and enjoy the professional performance and festive atmosphere of the festival.

This event is not only about music; it also promotes cultural exchange and provides artists and audiences from different countries with the opportunity to meet and share their creativity. The festival aims to unite people around music, give joy and inspiration, and discover new names in the music world. In addition to famous pop stars, the festival stage will feature young performers who have passed a rigorous selection. For many of them, this will be the first step to the big stage and an opportunity to declare themselves as future stars. Spectators will be able to witness the birth of new talents and support them with their applause and votes.

Last year, the Audience Award was received by Denberel Oorzhak from Russia thanks to the vote count on the official VK page of the competition and the votes of the audience in the hall from the ARS company. The award was personally presented to the young artist by the chairman of the jury and the festival organizer Igor Krutoy.

Tickets for the New Wave festival in Kazan are still available for purchase. This event promises to be one of the brightest moments of the year, uniting people of all ages and nationalities around the love of music and art.
