The "most expensive" singer of the Russian Federation officially canceled a concert at the country's largest stadium

The expected summer concert of the People's Artist of Russia Nadezhda Kadysheva with the Golden Ring collective has been moved from the country's largest stadium Luzhniki to the VTB Arena. This was announced by the official representative of the artist's family, Yuri Sharkovich, in a comment to the <url> portal.

According to him, Nadezhda and Grigory Kadyshev received a lot of requests from the audience who are waiting for the artist's concert in their city. In this regard, the team expanded the geography of the tour, adding new cities.

"Taking into account the wishes of our fans, the annual Golden Ring tour will expand, which requires additional time and preparation. Well, organizing a concert in Luzhniki costs a lot of effort and expenses comparable to organizing a big tour in the regions. So we had a tour of Russia on one side of the scale, and a concert at a large venue in the capital on the other," Sharkovich said.

He added that the concert in Moscow will take place on the same date on which the show in Luzhniki was scheduled — July 20. Tickets will be valid for the new venue — "VBT Arena".

"We will expand the regional tour and hold a concert in Moscow at a more compact venue — at the VTB Arena," Sharkovich stressed.

In order for the audience not to get confused, a memo has been published on the official website of the artist, which will help to get new tickets.

It should be noted that the capacity of the Luzhniki stadium is 81 thousand spectators, 31 thousand people will be able to watch the concert at VTB Arena. At the moment, tickets for the dance floor and about a hundred tickets in the sectors are available.

As reported by EADaily, in April last year, the promoter of the company "Ru-concert" Evgeny Morozov called Kadysheva the most expensive singer in Russia. According to him, the price tag of one corporate event with the participation of the singer on a new wave of popularity reached 20 million rubles. At the same time it became known about the planning of a large stadium concert of the singer and the team.

In November 2025, the telegram channel Shot claimed that the singer had raised the price tag for a 40-minute performance to a record 25 million rubles.

Information about the possible cancellation of the concert in Luzhniki appeared in early March, it was possible that the concert would be canceled.
