Jamala and The Maneken
Jazzy pop singer Jamala will share the stage of Arena Concert Plaza with house-music stars The Maneken in a joint concert.

The founder of The Maneken, Evgeniy Futskiy (aka DJ Major), plays house-music since 2002.
He will present his second album “Soulmate Sublime,” while Jamala will sing her best works from the English-language debut record “For Every Heart,” which was produced by Futskiy.

"Cry Baby" party
Whether you are a tireless rock-n-roll dancer or a big fan of Elvis Presley, you will love Cry Baby party.
Those who’ve seen the movie "Cry Baby" with Johnny Depp know perfectly well what the dress code should be: curls, stockings, cute spot dresses or skinny jeans back from the ’60s.
If you are a blond woman (or Johnny Depp!), you will get a free tutti frutti drink at the bar if you arrive before midnight.
