The key facts

  • Singer Sveta continued the concert without stopping her performance
  • No data on injuries or police reports; the cause of the conflict is being clarified

Brawl on the club's second floor

On the evening of October 24, a fight broke out at the Kosmonavt club on Bronnitskaya Street in St. Petersburg during singer Sveta's solo concert. The scuffle erupted on the venue's second floor while the artist was performing the song 'My Tears', reports Life.ru. Two women were at the center of the conflict, and a man along with the club's security staff had to calm them down.

What is known about the incident

Footage of the incident appeared on social media: the video shows several people trying to deal with the brawlers while the concert continues downstairs. What exactly the singer's fans quarreled over remains unknown. Sveta herself did not stop the performance and kept singing for the rest of the guests despite the fight taking place nearby.

The concert and previous incidents

That evening, Kosmonavt hosted a large solo concert by the singer, known for the hits 'Your Eyes', 'The Road to the Airport' and 'Maybe No, Maybe Yes'. The show was scheduled for 8:00 PM, and the program included popular songs from various albums of the artist. There is still no information about injuries or police reports; the causes of the conflict and its consequences are being clarified. The outlet also notes that fights at the singer's concerts have happened before: in early July, a fight broke out between female fans at her performance, and the scuffle started just as the artist was talking to the audience about kindness and positivity; security had to separate the fans.

Context

The incident shows that conflicts among concert audiences do not always lead to a show being stopped: in both described cases, the organizers and the artist continued the program. It is not yet known whether the victims or witnesses contacted the police, so the legal consequences for the brawlers cannot be judged from the available data. For club visitors, the only practical takeaway is that the venue's security intervened in the conflicts on its own in both cases.
