A pop-punk night in north Tashkent
Picture a sports arena full of people shouting along in Russian. Пошлая Молли (Poshlaya Molly) plays Yunusabad Sports Complex on November 22, 2026, as one stop on the band’s international tour. The show brings their loud, sarcastic pop-punk to one of the largest indoor venues in Tashkent.
The band is the project of frontman Kirill Bledny. It broke through in the late 2010s with short, catchy, heavily ironic songs about teenage boredom, parties and heartbreak. Their crowd is mostly young, and Russian is still widely spoken in Tashkent. That means much of the room knows the words, so you get a big singalong as well as a concert.
Yunusabad Sports Complex and the district around it
Yunusabad is a large residential district north of the city centre. It was laid out in Soviet-era blocks, with wide avenues and big courtyards between apartment buildings. The sports complex is one of its main landmarks and hosts sporting events as well as touring concerts.
Most arenas like this one are run the same way on a concert night:
- Security first: bag checks and a metal-detector frame at the entrance
- Floor and seating: a standing area in front of the stage, with tiered seats around the bowl
- Coats: a cloakroom queue that builds up after the encore
The district has plenty of everyday cafés and plov centres along its main roads. Fans who want a meal before the show often eat nearby instead of heading back into the centre.
Getting to Yunusabad on a November evening
Most concert-goers take a taxi. Yandex Go is the dominant ride-hailing app in Tashkent. You can pay by card or in cash, and fares across the city are low compared with most European capitals.
The Yunusobod metro line runs north from the centre into the district. Tashkent’s metro is known for its decorated Soviet-era stations, and it is a cheap way to skip the traffic on major roads. Police officers at station entrances sometimes ask to look inside bags, which is routine.
Late November in Tashkent is cold after dark, often close to freezing. Expect to queue outside in a heavy jacket, then hand it in at the cloakroom.
How a Tashkent concert crowd behaves
Tashkent audiences tend to be friendly and enthusiastic. Fans at shows like this usually arrive well before the doors open to get a good place on the standing floor. The front rows fill first, and the people who want to jump stay close to the barrier.
- Paying: Uzbekistan’s local cards are Uzcard and Humo. Payme and Click are the everyday payment apps. Bars and cafés near big venues often take international Visa and Mastercard too, but not every kiosk does.
- Language: a simple “rahmat” (thank you in Uzbek) or “spasibo” (Russian) works with staff.
- Phones: the crowd films the big choruses, but most people put their phones down for the songs everyone knows.
- Leaving: many fans order their taxi before the last song so they beat the rush after the encore.
Tickets, dates and the official details
The concert date is November 22, 2026, and the venue is Yunusabad Sports Complex. The organiser publishes ticket links, seating categories, door times and any age restrictions for the event. Those details belong to the organiser, so this guide does not repeat prices or times.
Your ticket is usually checked at the arena entrance alongside the bag search. Resale from strangers outside the venue is a common source of fake tickets at touring shows across the region. Fans generally stick to the official seller.
Making a weekend of it
If you’re travelling in for the show, the rest of Tashkent fits around one evening easily. Chorsu Bazaar, with its big blue dome, is the city’s best-known market for dried fruit, spices and bread. Amir Timur Square and the pedestrian street Sayilgoh (Broadway) are good places for a walk in the centre.
Visitors usually stay in the central districts near Amir Timur Square, where most hotels are, and take a taxi north to Yunusabad on the night. A day before or after the concert leaves time for a plate of plov at the Central Asian Plov Centre, a long-running Tashkent institution that serves it straight from giant cauldrons at lunchtime.
