The subversive Slovenian industrial rock band Laibach claim they are set to be the first foreign group to perform a full concert in Kyiv since the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

The group will play Bel Etage Music Hall on 31 March, under the concert title Eurovision – an arch reference to the fact the Eurovision song contest, won by Ukraine in 2022, will not be hosted in the country this year, but rather Liverpool in the UK.
