Ticket sales for the "Slavianski Bazaar" concerts have started in Vitebsk.
Rock panorama, KVN concert with the participation of the Major League teams, solo shows by Vladimir Presnyakov, Stas Piekha, and Dmitry Malikov will delight the guests of "Slavyansky Bazaar" this year. The program is still being finalized, so new performers, groups, and projects will be gradually added to the existing list. This was announced to journalists at a briefing by the General Director of the "Vitebsk" Cultural Center, Director of the Arts Festival, Gleb Lapitsky.
"Today, the sale of tickets for the international creative forum has started at the city's ticket offices and on the websites of ticket operators. This time, the organizers did not create a staggered launch of sales, giving everyone the opportunity to choose the best seats and attend the long-awaited concert (in previous years, tickets were first available to Vitebsk residents at ticket offices, and then could be purchased by spectators from other cities and countries at other venues).
This year, the program is open for three of the largest venues of the forum: the Summer Amphitheater, the "Vitebsk" concert hall, and the open-air stage next to it. "Two projects will be responsible for the Belarusian content at this festival. The first is the show by the group 'Aura', dedicated to the Year of Peace and Creation. It will feature a huge number of interesting songs, plus those performed by the guests of this duo," noted Gleb Lapitsky. "In the second part of our XXXII International Competition of Young Performers, Irina Dorofeeva will perform. I think it's very symbolic, because she is the person who started her journey from the Summer Amphitheater stage in 1999. There will also be large gala concerts: 'Shanson-TV', 'Golden Hit', opening and closing ceremonies."
The focus of the "Days of the Union State" at the festival this year will shift from vocals to choreography. A separate concert of choreographic art will be held in the "Vitebsk" Concert Hall. And the main project will be the grand show on the stage of the Summer Amphitheater on Friday, July 14. It will be dedicated to the 85th anniversary of People's Artist of the Soviet Union Igor Luchenok. The musical accompaniment will be provided by the M.Ya. Finberg National Academic Concert Orchestra. "Right there, we will see Igor Mikhailovich's songs performed in a very interesting interpretation. And not only the hits that everyone knows," explained the festival director. "These are also new works that will be transferred by the composer's family and performed by young artists from Belarus and Russia."
Several solo shows are already known to be held on the concert hall stage - by Vladimir Presnyakov, Dmitry Malikov, and Stas Piekha. "The 21st children's competition will also take place here. On the first day, our children will take the stage with a large pop-symphony orchestra for the first time - this is the opening of this year's event. We are preparing for it very seriously, and we think everything should turn out well. On the second day, they will perform together with show ballets and creative groups," added Gleb Lapitsky.
Regarding the open-air venue next to the Vitebsk Concert Hall, two projects are already known: Sergey Lazarev's solo concert and the Rock Panorama. "We really wanted such a grand return of this project to the festival," commented the forum director on the return of the Rock Panorama. "Despite our compressed format, all creative directions will be represented. The hits of the bands Agatha Christie and Smyslovye Gallyutsinatsii will be performed at this concert. They will be joined by our Belarusian performers. We are revealing all the announced line-ups only today. Work is ongoing, and these lists will be updated."
From March 6 to 12, tickets for the "Slavianski Bazaar" are sold with a Br8 discount using the promo code 0803 for concerts in the Summer Amphitheater. This promotion for International Women's Day does not end there. On the holiday itself, female attendees purchasing tickets at city box offices will receive another surprise – a branded brooch in the shape of the festival's cornflower.
