Nizhny Novgorod graduates invited Sergey Lazarev to the last bell.

      On May 20, 2026, at 16:30, Society Graduates of school No. 47 in Nizhny Novgorod recorded a message to singer Sergey Lazarev and invited him to their last bell ceremony. The video became popular on social media. In the clip, the teenagers mention that they know about the artist's upcoming concerts at the Sports Palace. Their school is located right across from it, and the ceremonial line for the last bell will take place at 10:00 on May 26.

      It would be a huge gift for us on our holiday. We love you, the graduates said in front of the camera.

      Currently, this video has already received 229 thousand likes, over 7.7 thousand comments, and 5.7 million views. Commentators are divided into two camps: while some are tagging Sergey Lazarev en masse, others accuse the children of not considering the artist's busy schedule. In the comments, the video's author emphasizes that they are inviting the celebrity not to perform, but simply to delight them with his presence.

      Many will go to the concert in the evening anyway. This video is just an adventure and an invitation, if the person has time and desire to please our children, parents, and teachers, says the pinned comment.

      The pop performer has not yet reacted to the video message. Meanwhile, the children have started making videos counting down the days to the last bell. Earlier, we reported that graduates from Nizhny Novgorod were banned from dancing the waltz to non-patriotic tracks. NIA "Nizhny Novgorod" has channels on Telegram and MAX.
