Promoting the Largest Bar Space in Russia
Bla Bla Bar Novosibirsk
Bla Bla Bar, Novosibirsk — the largest bar venue in Russia, opened in 2020.
It’s a unique 2,058 m² location that brings together 29 different bar concepts under one roof.

PROJECT GOALS
Like many industry professionals, the client was unsure how to introduce such a unique concept to the Novosibirsk market.
Our goal was to raise awareness and position the venue successfully.
SOLUTION & WORKSTREAMS
One of the key factors behind the success of this case was an outstanding team.

Andrey Vasin – Owner of Bar “113,” entrepreneur, and restaurateur. The team leader, a high-level professional, and a true enthusiast.
Vadim – Bar manager. A master of his craft, able to create a cocktail from just about anything.
Denis Shchenev – Knew every DJ in town, skillfully kept the crowd engaged and organized various shows.
Evgeny Kalinkin – Art director, brought in impressive corporate clients.
Pavel Yuryevich – Head of security. A human rock — nothing feels unsafe when he’s around.
Mansur – A partner without whom this level of success would have been impossible.

“When you have a great team, no challenge is too big, and mountains get moved.”
— Anton Novgorodtsev, marketing lead on the project
