What is "nashestvie"

Nashestvie is one of the largest open-air festivals of Russian rock, organized by Nashe Radio station. It is held annually during the first weekend of July (until 2006: first weekend of August) somewhere in the environs of Moscow, Russia, since 1999 (open air since 2000) to this day with the exception of 2007. Nashestvie changed its venue several times: it was initially set in Ramenskoye, Moscow Oblast, but recently it moved northwest to Tver Oblast.

The festival's name is a word play in Russian: it literally means "invasion", but is also derived from the name of Nashe Radio (Our Radio). Media also dubbed it "Russian Woodstock".
