VKontakte Fandom Fest will be held on October 10 and 11 at the CSKA ARENA

Russia's largest pop culture festival is changing locations and announcing a new format. Now the VKontakte Fandom Fest is a real arena, and the viewer decides for himself in what form he participates in the festival. The detailed program of the festival will appear later. Tickets will be available on the official VKontakte community of the festival from June 2.

VKontakte Fandom Fest is a festival for the whole family and those who are passionate about games, anime and Asian culture, follow the release of new TV series and films, listen to musical idols, and are members of interest groups. The festival is divided into different thematic areas — from a market with exclusive merchandise, collectible comic books and books to a music scene, a cosplay fashion show and autograph sessions with celebrities.

This year, visitors can choose the format of the festival — each ticket will have its own sector or zone. The audience will be able to choose seats in the stands or a dance floor, a fan section, a seat in a box or an entire box. There will also be common areas on the site, such as a lecture hall, a food court, and all expo formats will be available to visitors with any type of ticket. For music shows, cosplay catwalks, k-pop cover dance, and other stage shows, you can choose the format of attendance depending on your mood and level of engagement.

"The VKontakte Fandom Fest has always united different hobbies, worlds and communities. Every year, the festival has grown with the audience, from comic book fans to game developers, and we continue to support the interests of our visitors. This year we are entering a new stage at the CSKA ARENA. Now the VKontakte Fandom Fest is a whole universe, in the center of which our viewer is the main character of this story. See you in October! Come and be surprised," said Nikita Nichkalyuk, Marketing Director of VKontakte.

In 2025, the VKontakte Fandom Fest gathered 15,000 people at the Main Stage in Moscow. All tickets of all categories were sold out before the start of the event. EVERGLOW, DKB, The Last Live, Nomads, WEIYI and KAI performed on the main stage.
