About the event

On 26 December Lotus Arena Pattaya welcomes its first guests, and the opening night is put on by the Vse Nashi team. The organisers are planning more than a regular concert: a music festival for 3,000 people with three big names on the line-up. The evening runs until about 23:00.

The first name announced is Instasamka, a singer and rapper from Tobolsk. She started out as a blogger and turned to music in 2019. Her 2021 album Moneydealer brought "Lipsi Ha" and "Juicy", which both spread on TikTok, and "Lipsi Ha" reached number one on the Russian Apple Music chart. "Za dengi da" from the album Popstar topped the Yandex Music chart, and VK Music named Instasamka its artist of the year for 2023, when her songs were played 600 million times on the service.

Her hits include "Lipsi Ha", "Juicy", "Za dengi da", "Popstar", "Volosy nazad" and "Otklyuchayu telefon". In 2024 she released the EP "Bumery i zumery" with the band Leningrad, and in 2026 the single "Personality".

Dance Floor tickets get more expensive as sales go on: Early early bird at 1,000 baht, Early bird at 1,200, Normal at 1,400. Fan Zone prices rise in waves too: 1,600, 1,800 and 2,000 baht. Seats at tables in zones A, B and C start at 3,750 baht, and there are VIP tables for six. Table seats and VIP tables are booked with a 50% deposit.

Lotus Arena Pattaya is the new arena on Sukhumvit Road in Nong Prue, next to Lakeland. Grand Opening starts its season: January's Pattaya concerts are listed below, and the map shows the way.
