The New Wave 2025 festival will open in Kazan, the capital of Tatarstan, at the new venue New Wave Hall!

The festive opening of this significant event is scheduled for August 21 at one of the city's symbols, the Kazan Family Center, where a new stage was built especially for the festival. This is not just a change of venue — it is the beginning of a new era in the history of the festival created by Igor Krutoy.

Since its inception, the festival has acquired a reputation as a prestigious launching pad for aspiring artists. Over the past twenty years, its stage has become a meeting place for talents from 40 countries, such as China, France, Italy, Cuba, Indonesia, Spain, and Kazakhstan. It was here that the world first heard future world-class stars, and the festival itself has become a symbol of the highest professionalism and discovery.

The opening ceremony promises to be the most striking musical event of the summer of 2025. The New Wave Hall stage will feature pop legends and popular artists of our time: Irina Allegrova, Lev Leshchenko, Soso Pavliashvili, Philipp Kirkorov, Nikolay Baskov, Ani Lorak, Alsou and other A-list stars — Sergey Lazarev, Dmitry Bilan, Stas Mikhailov and Nyusha.

This unique concert will be a rare opportunity to see many celebrities on one stage at the same time. Spectators will enjoy a grand show with original arrangements of famous hits, impressive decorations and excellent lighting direction.

After a great start, the festival will offer a rich program: competitions for young performers from all over the world for the attention of an authoritative jury will smoothly transition into creative evenings and retro concerts with hits of past years. The event will end with performances by jury members and a gala concert with the awarding of the winners.
