 A New Year party at Sixteen Tons this year will treat the guests with something special: a famous Russian alternative rock band Bi-2 is going to perform its best hits in an exclusive show! Founded in 1985 Bi-2 (pronounced as "bi-dva") went up to popularity only in 2000, recording the score for popular Brother 2 movie by Aleksei Balabanov. Several score songs, included in the Bi-2 eponymous debut album, shook rock radio charts, including the influential Nashe Radio chart. Bi-2 continued with "Meow Kiss Me" (2001) and "Inomarki" (2004), both sold gold in Russia. Each of their albums included duet records with other rock musicians from such bands as Splean, Chaif, Nochniye Snaiperi, Zemfira, and others. In 2007 Bi-2 was awarded MTV Russian Music Awards for Best Rock and since then it continues to be one of the most famous and loved rock bands in Russia. Of course, the concert is not all: the programme of the celebration will also include a New Year menu with special courses and alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. Plus, ticket-holders will get entry to pre-party and after-party programme featuring best Russian DJs playing dance music. The number of tickets is limited.

 Let's meet the future! Some say that the upcoming year will see the new rise of digital culture, a new plan for the Moon's exploration, a space telescope and a total solar eclipse.

Adamov, Agraba, Anton Kubikov, Anrilov, Bvoice, Deep Square, Doyeq, Monkey Fish, and Tripmastaz will be in responsible for the music while a six-meter installation of a New Year tree will set the scene for a festive party.

 Sparkling decorations, festive lights, a timer before midnight, the best music in the world, an open roof terrace, a barbeque outside, a never-ending variety of drinks and best friends around you - this is what the most important night of winter will look like at Strelka Bar. A playful, fun-driven duo from Lyon, Guillaume Lespinasse and Louis De La Gorce (The Pilotwings) will take charge of the music. First emerged in 2014, the duo made quite a splash with their quickly sold-out debut 12″, ‘Agorespace’, which also marked the beginning of the adventure for BFDM. Melding muscular breaks, faux-balearic house melodies, pot-fuelled dub and reshuffled trancey accents, the pair’s inaugural outing quite clearly outlined the contours of their pieces to come. Followed by a solid second EP in 2015, and no less than two high-rated albums for BFDM and Macadam Mambo one year later, ‘Les Portes Du Brionnais’ and ‘Une Nuit Au Boxboys’, and another EP in 2018, Guillaume and Louis cemented their status as one of France’s most refreshingly genuine and talented new groups to cycle through European stages in recent times. The band have been at Strelka before (in 2017) and traveled widely, performing everywhere from Albania to Australia and from Morocco and Norway. The tickets to the New Year celebration party at Strelka are already on sale and include a special present from Strelka as well as drinks and a New Year meal, of course.
