New Year Performance Fee: Millions for Holiday Cheer

A source at a leading event agency shared exclusive information about the financial expectations of the reunited duo. According to the agency, T.A.T.u. is ready to perform at corporate events throughout the New Year holidays.

"T.A.T.u. has open dates during the New Year period. Their fee is 17.5 million rubles (about $223,000)," the agency reported.

The sum is undeniably impressive, underscoring the artists’ high status in the music market. Fees of this scale show that the group is aiming for major, prestigious events with audiences to match.

Surprisingly Modest Demands: Comfort and Professionalism

Despite their sizable fee, event organizers note that working with Lena Katina and Yulia Volkova is remarkably comfortable. Their requirements are modest and focused on ensuring convenience and a professional setup.

Their transportation request is simple: any foreign-made car no older than three years, reflecting a preference for modern, reliable service.

For preparations, they need a private dressing room at the venue and a professional makeup artist — a detail that highlights their commitment to appearing impeccably polished before stepping on stage.

Gastronomic Preferences: Details That Set the Mood

Their menu is also carefully curated. It reflects their tastes and creates an atmosphere of comfort and care.

As reported by the *Abzats* outlet, their table must include cream, a bottle each of red and white wine, twenty-four cans of light beer, Kaufmann vodka, and Hennessy X.O cognac. They prefer classic snacks: sandwiches, fruit, and chocolate.

Importantly, they specify one key restriction: no fish platter. This detail helps organizers avoid misunderstandings and ensures everything meets the duo’s expectations.

A Triumphant Global Return

The duo’s summer reunion became a full-fledged event, ushering in a wave of intense touring across the world. Success arrived instantly. Tickets for T.A.T.u.’s concert in Mexico sold out in just ten minutes — a striking testament to their enduring appeal and the massive interest in their music. The duo earned more than seventy million rubles from two shows abroad, drawing over two thousand fans.

These figures make one thing clear: T.A.T.u. has not simply returned — they have done so triumphantly, reaffirming their status as global stars. Fans around the world are eager to hear the hits that defined an era, and the duo is responding with full dedication. Their rapid ticket sales and international demand prove that T.A.T.u.’s music continues to resonate across borders, ages, and cultures.
