News about the contest

Only a little more than one month left before the contest’s final!
Only a little more than one month is left before the contest’s final. The organizers promise the most interesting show to the spectators of the contest.
On the stage there will be not only young and talented singers but also masters such as Phillip Kirkorov, Masha Rasputina, Valery Leontiev, Igor Nikolaev, Natalia Vetlitskaya, VIA ‘Slivki’, ‘Diskoteka Avaria’ and many others. We have a good chance to see such foreign stars as Sarah Connor and Patricia Kaas.
Night discos will be remembered for a long time afterwards, both due to the unforgetable meeting with favourite stars and unusual, special holiday. This music feast will be taking place for 5 days running. In the program of contest days each of the 16 finalists will perform his or her country’s retro hit, than a hit song in a foreign language, and an original composition specially written for the contest. On the closing day there will be a grandiose gala show.
The contestants will be judged by a competent jury, whose Co-Chairmen are traditionally Raymond Pauls and Igor Krutoy. The jury also include composer Vladimir Matetskiy, famous actor and producer Fyodor Bondarchuk, singer and musician Leonid Agutin.
