Music is a means of communication. 24 bands from different corners of the world have taken part in the Creation of the World festival in the Republic of Tatarstan.
The 10-hour open-air festival drew 200,000 people to the Tatar capital Kazan.
The music marathon brought together musicians from the UK, America, Georgia, Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, and France.
The main idea behind the festival was to gather people despite of different religions and nationalities as well as polar music genres, spanning from hard rock to ethnic music.
Manu Chao, Fun-Da-Mental, DDT and The Insight with Nino Katamadze in the lead were among the most highly-anticipated gigs at the music extravaganza.
During his turn, president of the festival Andrey Makarevich, leader of the Russian rock band Time Machine, performed a song in memory of Michael Jackson.
