Maxidrom is the largest international music festival in Russia.

The festival was first organized in 1995 in Moscow by the russian famous pop&rock radio station Radio MAXIMUM.
At first ithe headliners were mostly local famous rock bands. The festival became so popular, that two years later it grew into an international event. The festival was held outdoors at Moscow's Tushino Aerodrome. 

THE PRODIGY

The Prodigy are an English electronic dance music group formed by Liam Howlett in 1990 in Braintree, Essex. Along with Fatboy Slim, The Chemical Brothers, and other acts, The Prodigy have been credited as pioneers of the big beat genre, which achieved mainstream popularity in the 1990s and 2000s.[1] They have sold over 25 million records worldwide.[2] The group has won numerous music awards throughout their career, including two Brit Awards—winning Best British Dance Act twice, three MTV Video Music Awards, two Kerrang! Awards, five MTV Europe Music Awards, and have twice been nominated for Grammy Awards.

The group's brand of music makes use of various styles ranging from rave, hardcore techno, industrial, and breakbeat in the early 1990s to big beat and electronic rock with punk vocal elements in later times. The current members include Liam Howlett (keyboardist and composer), Keith Flint (dancer and vocalist), and Maxim (MC and vocalist). Leeroy Thornhill (dancer and very rarely a live keyboardist) was a member of the band from 1990 to 2000, as was a female dancer and vocalist called Sharky who left the group during their early period. The Prodigy first emerged on the underground rave scene in the early 1990s, and have since then achieved immense popularity and worldwide renown.

KORN

Korn has sold 19 million albums in the US according to Nielsen SoundScan,and 35 million worldwide. Eleven of the band's official releases have peaked in the top ten of the Billboard 200, eight of which have peaked in the top five.Eight official releases are certified Platinum or Multi-Platinum by the RIAA, and one is certified Gold. Korn have released six video albums and 39 music videos. They currently have 41 singles, 28 of which have charted.Korn have earned two Grammy Awards out of seven nominations, for "Freak on a Leash" and "Here to Stay".

 

ZEMFIRA

Zemfira is a Russian rock artist of Bashkir descent. She has been performing since 1998 and has been immensely popular in Russia and other former Soviet republics. The debut album was released in 1999. The group enjoyed immense popularity from the start, in part because of heavy rotation on radio and television, and in part because a female rocker was a fairly rare and unusual concept for the Russian music scene. After the release of PMML (Russian abbreviation for Forgive Me My Love) in March 2000, what can only be described as “Zemfiromania” swept the country.

 

ADAM LAMBERT

Adam Lambert is an American singer-songwriter and stage actor. Lambert came to prominence following his appearance on the eighth season of American Idol.

The tour was followed by two live releases: an extended play entitled Acoustic Live! (2010), and a live CD/DVD Glam Nation Live (2011). He is currently working on his second studio album Trespassing (2012), which was preceded by lead single "Better Than I Know Myself".
