OREANDA-NEWS VKontakte will hold a Fandom Fest that will unite thousands of fans of different directions of pop culture. The festival will be held on November 10-12 at the Moscow festival site — Main Stage. This is reported in the press release of the social network.

The first day of the Fandom Fest was called "It will be funny", the second — "It will be debak", the third — "It will be on the screens". For three days, a cosplay contest will be held on the main stage in various subjects: video games, Asian culture, cinema and comics. There will also be a K-pop Cover Dance Champ dance contest — 10 teams will compete in it, which will pass an online selection in advance. The total prize fund of the competition program will be more than one million rubles.

The audience is also waiting for presentations of film projects from film crews, Q&A sessions with invited guests, a show match with streamers, lightsaber battles, comic book announcements and gift draws.

Cover dance stars Sasha Bogomyagkova, Dan Kang and Maxim Bon will perform on the main stage of the festival. Fans of the Atomic Heart game will be able to see on the stage of the Bolshoi Theater artists Anita Pudikova and Denis Medvedev, who gave the appearance and voice to the heroes of the game.

"The festival will unite fans of anime, video games, esports, cosplay, k-pop, doramas, webtoon and digital art. All these areas are very different, but the boundaries between them will disappear at the Fandom Fest," said Alexander Nikiforov, Marketing Director of VKontakte.
