The New Radio AWARDS will be held on March 3. For the third time, a unique national project will combine the prestigious music award ceremony and a ten-hour charity marathon.

Bright freshmen and legends of the music industry will give the whole country a spring mood and perform their main hits. Vanya Dmitrienko, Marie Kraymbreri, Sergey Lazarev, Artik&Asti, Valeria, LYRIQ, MONA, Pizza, Lesha Svik, Mary Gu, Zvonkiy, ELMAN, SOCRAT, TRIDA, Asia, SERYABKINA, Anastasia Sadkovskaya, NEMIGA and many other popular musicians will participate in the marathon. The ceremony will be hosted by the voices of the 1+1 morning show, the superhero duo of Kalinin and Raytraun. And Leonid Agutin, the headliner of the award, will take the stage with a big exclusive concert set. The names of the winners of the coveted statuettes, Golden Sirens, in 14 nominations will be announced by friends of the Khabensky Foundation and Novy Radio - actors, directors and other famous cultural figures.

"The New Radio team was able to combine a music show and a charity marathon. This is important, because even in moments of joy and happiness, we must not forget about those whom we can help and make the world a little kinder," Agutin said, emphasizing the importance of the music award.

Roman Yemelyanov, the general producer of Novy Radio, spoke about the idea behind the project.

"We started the kindest award as an experiment, changing the format of the ceremony beloved by millions of listeners. We wanted to help the wards of the Khabensky Foundation and show that popular music does not have to be associated with scandals and hype. That top artists do a lot for charity — and it really is! But many people didn't advertise it before. I hope we have overcome the stereotype that charity should not be public. The fact that good deeds are done under the spotlight does not make them worse, on the contrary, a public figure sets an example to those who love and appreciate him. Even if our listener does not transfer this or that amount to charity directly on the day of the marathon, he will still think about it and do something good. Good has a cumulative effect. I am sure that the award ceremony will be as spring—like and exciting as possible," he concluded.

The video version of the ceremony will be available exclusively on the New Radio VKontakte page.
