However, as the statistics of the Aktion Kadry and HR service show, the festive fervor has diminished – only 21% of companies have decided to hold celebrations. However, you should not worry about the artists: the final of the year for those who are traditionally invited to corporate parties will definitely not become unprofitable.
“Only state-owned companies do not widely celebrate the New Year,” Tabriz Shahidi, owner of the Empire of Music brand and organizer of luxury events, told Sobesednik. – All commercial structures, with rare exceptions, arrange corporate parties, but a little less pathetically than in previous years. Back in the covid 2020, a trend was set for a “short planning horizon”. Decisions on closed entertainment events were made two to three weeks before they took place. There were no significant changes in the formats, except that in a short time it is not possible to prepare complex scenario content and insane scenery.
According to the well-known showbiz manager, Leonid Agutin continues to remain in the top performers, Basta“Hands up!”, Dima BilanPolina Gagarina, Sergey Lazarev, Nikolay Baskov“Ivanushki Int.”, Zivert, Maxim, “Moral Code”, ValeriaLena Temnikova, Grigory Leps“Beasts”, Philip Kirkorov other. There are no big changes in fees either. Philip Bedrosovich at the New Year’s holiday has long been worth 10 million rubles, Leonid Agutin – 4 million, Zivert has raised the bar to 3.5 million since autumn.

Nikolai Baskov asks for 3.5 million for an exit with songs, and if you pay one and a half million, he is also ready to be the host of the event. Grigory Leps has been singing for 80-100 thousand euros for four years already (5.5-7 million rubles at the current exchange rate). The Leps dachshund was not affected by the recent scandal fight with a visitor to a bar in St. Petersburg. The newcomer of the rating this year was Shaman, who gained considerable popularity among the patriotic public, and not only. His New Year’s performance in Moscow costs 3 million rubles.

Other stars who left the country or spoke from pacifist positions continue to speak and conduct corporate parties. Moreover, the price of the majority has not undergone noticeable changes. If Andrey Makarevich* previously did not favor private events, but now he lives in Israel, this cannot be said about Ivan Urgant. Orders for holding holidays have slightly decreased, but the presenter’s fee remains at the same level – 3.5-4 million rubles for the New Year’s Eve.

And here Svetlana Loboda, Vera Brezhneva and Primadonna of the Russian stage on New Year’s trees in Russia will not be able to perform, for obvious reasons.
Starhit.ru, 12/12/2022, “Rider Valery Leontiev and prices for corporate parties: for Russians, the singer will cost more”: People’s Artist refused to shoot in “Song of the Year”. The performer of the hit “Casanova” abandoned his touring activities, but for a tidy sum the star is ready to please the public. For 150 thousand dollars, the artist is ready to sing in Russia. Whereas for fans from other countries, Valery can make a discount – a fee for a concert for foreigners – 100 thousand dollars. It is not clear what is the reason for such a difference in price, because it is in the Russian Federation that Leontief more than one generation of fans.
To book the date of the performance, the customer must make an advance payment – 50 percent, pay for airfare. And, of course, like any self-respecting star, Valery has a rider. In addition to technical issues, it includes household requirements. The windows in the suite must be covered with black paper. This is done so that the light does not enter the room and the singer can relax in comfortable conditions for him. In addition, such an unusual whim helps to hide the artist from prying eyes and paparazzi. The dresser and the guards must certainly live next door. The artist is ready to move only on Mercedes-Benz. Luggage porters should also be at his disposal, Macallan whiskey with cold cuts should be waiting in the dressing room, and his pockets should be replenished with daily allowances in the amount of $ 300. — Inset K.ru

The fact that few people arrange magnificent festivities even during the New Year’s time is confirmed by other experts in the show industry.

That is, rich people were not sure until the very end that they would celebrate widely,” says promoter Sergey Lavrov. — Compared to last year, which was also not particularly fruitful for artists due to the pandemic, there were three times fewer corporate events.
