Chansonnier Mikhail Bublik faced an unexpected delay in his plans to travel to Russia, with a six-month postponement tied to entry difficulties at the border. A Telegram channel named Shot reported the development, noting that several of his scheduled appearances faced last‑minute changes in the near term.
Based on the channel’s account, performances in Voronezh, Lipetsk, and Tambov were moved to October, while concerts planned for Moscow and the Moscow region were rescheduled to December 2024. The post also indicated that venue organizers did not rule out the possibility of further changes, suggesting ongoing uncertainty surrounding the artist’s tour timeline. The report implied that the postponement concerns may be connected to Bublik’s stance on the CBO, a factor that could influence travel permissions. Earlier in January, travel restrictions prevented the artist from entering Russia, where he is currently based, with the concert director declining to comment on the situation.
Shot’s Telegram channel, citing a source from the concert industry on February 13, claimed that Milyavskaya’s anniversary Russian tour was at risk of cancellation. The outlet alleged that social activists’ demands following a controversial event involving blogger Nastya Ivleeva had impacted the tour’s fate. It was reported that Milyavskaya attended the event, and by February, concerts in Perm and Yekaterinburg had already been canceled, with the Perm show originally slated for March 19 and the Yekaterinburg show for March 21.
Earlier reports mentioned a concert by a Russian conductor in Vienna that had been cancelled at the request of a Ukrainian artist, adding to the broader pattern of shifting schedules in the regional concert circuit.
