Valery Meladze performed at the Pramogų Arena complex in Vilnius on March 8. He sang old hits — and, judging by the feedback from attendees, he performed mostly for Belarusian women.
People traveled to Meladze's concert so massively that, as joked on social networks, no one even asked about the purpose of the visit at the border. There seems to be no doubt about who filled the arena:
"Yesterday, all of Belarus sang at Meladze's concert in Vilnius. It was a blast! The best March 8th ever!"
"All Belarusian women rushed to Vilnius for Meladze."
"Yesterday all the girls from Belarus were at Meladze's concert in Vilnius, how is that possible?"
Someone even brought a poster with "Belarusians, we love you."
To get to the concert, some had to literally spend a sleepless night:
"Minsk. 3:35 AM. Going to the bus station. In 25 minutes, departure towards a small dream. The taxi driver clearly knows something and helps me prepare for the concert."
There were also girls who decided to combine the trip to the concert with an opportunity to walk around Vilnius a bit. For this, they had to arrive a little earlier:
It seems Meladze left no one dissatisfied. Reviews from concert-goers are full of happiness:
"Meladze's concert in Vilnius is an opportunity to feel at home, among native Belarusians."
"It was magnificent, thank you for asking. Meladze is very soulful."
"For the first time, we danced in the fan zone in a down jacket because the wardrobe was overflowing."
Belarusian expatriates also attended the concert. For example, Hanna Matulyak, a well-known psychologist, published a photo from the arena online:
"Meladze's concerts are Tinder for men. I've never seen such a concentration of wonderful women aged 20 to 70 before."
"We came to Valera's concert! I've never seen so many gorgeous women in one place before," another Belarusian woman shared her excitement.
There were, however, some negative comments. One Belarusian woman drew attention to how security was handled at the arena:
"No bag checks, alcohol is allowed into the hall, the stands and fan sector are not separated from each other. A couple of guards for the entire arena. In an SOS situation — no options."
And after the concert, an unpleasant incident occurred. At the exit from the arena, as witnesses describe, a security guard tried to calm down a rowdy visitor and sprayed pepper spray. As a result, several women nearby also inhaled the gas.
Those who couldn't make it to the concert had to follow it through social media posts:
"Glad for those who managed to go. Oh, I remember the times when getting a visa was quick and easy. You'd get in your car and in 3-4 hours you'd be in another country. And now you have to queue for a year — will they give it or not, will you get there or not?"
