Concert Diana Arbenina and the Night Snipers group in Vladivostok is scheduled for February 27 at the Fetisov Arena sports complex. Tickets costing from 2,200 to 10 thousand rubles are already being sold.
Last November, Diana Arbenina’s concert was canceled in Tomsk after complaints from local residents. The singer’s concerts in Togliatti, Cheboksary, Ulyanovsk, Pyatigorsk, Kazan, Ufa and Perm were also cancelled. The frontwoman of the group “Night Snipers” linked the current situation with “the strange unfulfilled ambitions of individual public figures.” Head of the Federal Project on Security and Anti-Corruption Vitaly Borodin previously asked The Prosecutor General’s Office will check the singer under an administrative article about discrediting the Russian army.
