According to the publication “161.ru”, Nikolaev’s concert in Rostov was also canceled – it was supposed to take place on September 19. The reason is that the artist was hospitalized.
“Ticket sales are closed for now due to the artist being hospitalized. The concert will be postponed to another date. There are no sales yet,” they said at the box office of the central concert hall of the Kuban Cossack Choir in Krasnodar.
It was announced that Igor Nikolaev had a heart attack at the Festivalny concert hall in Sochi.

On September 15, Telegram channel 112 reported that Nikolaev was urgently hospitalized. The information that the artist was hospitalized was also confirmed by the Izvestia source.
Later, the Mash Telegram channel reported that Nikolaev was transferred to intensive care. Using electrocardiography (ECG), it was determined that the artist had signs of a massive heart attack. Currently, doctors are trying to urgently stabilize the star’s condition. A source from the TASS agency claims that the singer is in the clinic, and not in intensive care, as planned.
Igor Nikolaev’s health problems began in 2021 when he had his first heart attack. The next time his heart felt bad was in January 2023. The singer felt chest pain at a country house in the Moscow region and called an ambulance. At first he was taken to one of the hospitals in Krasnogorsk, but soon he was transferred to the National Medical Research Center of Cardiology of the Ministry of Health of Russia, where he underwent heart surgery – two stents were installed.
