About the event

The Vse Nashi team opens the season of big concerts at Lotus Arena Phuket with a music festival for 3,000 guests and three headliners on 27 December. The evening runs until about 22:00, and in January the arena hosts Potap & Nastya, Mumiy Troll, Valery Meladze, GUF, Macan and the other artists in the listings.

Instasamka is one of the most-streamed artists in Russia: VK Music named her its artist of the year for 2023, when her songs were played 600 million times on the service. She moved from social media videos to music with her first albums in 2019, and broke through with 2021's Moneydealer and its tracks "Lipsi Ha" and "Juicy". The next album, Popstar, brought "Za dengi da", a number one on the Yandex Music chart. Her other hits include "Otklyuchayu telefon", "Kak Mommy" and "Volosy nazad".

AVG (A.V.G) is Valiko Aleksanyan from Rostov-on-Don. Yandex Music named him one of its artists of the year for 2023: his solo track "Ya plachu" climbed to number two on the VKontakte and Yandex Music charts, and "Nozhevoy" with TATAR won the Rise in My Wave award. Before going solo AVG made his name in a duo with Jakone, whose "Platina" was VK Music's collaboration of the year. Listeners also know him for "Sponsor tvoikh problem", "Privykayu" and "Ona blizko".
