"I don't like the rain": Gazmanov held a soundcheck in a raincoat in Nizhny Novgorod

      August 15, 2026 16:41 Culture and Leisure People's Artist of Russia Oleg Gazmanov is already preparing for the festive concert in Nizhny Novgorod. The singer's performance (6+) will take place today at 20:30 as part of the celebration of the city's 805th anniversary. Before the concert, the artist and his team held a rehearsal at Minin and Pozharsky Square. The musicians appeared on stage in bright yellow raincoats, which stood out against the backdrop of the overcast sky and bad weather. Gazmanov promised to "chase away the clouds" and perform a special song "I Don't Like Rain."

      Some Nizhny Novgorod residents were lucky enough to hear the singer before the concert began—without the usual crowd of spectators for a performance. Let us remind you that the festive events (0+) for the 805th anniversary of Nizhny Novgorod are taking place in the city's parks. In addition to Gazmanov, performances (6+) by Sergey Galanin and the rock band "SeryGa" are expected. The concert will take place in the "Switzerland" park.
