Most of the headliners represent the usual Nashe Radio playlist.

Young and obscure bands can participate in Nashestvie;[4] they play in the mornings or, since 2005, on special separate stages.

Some bands, namely Epidemia and Melnitsa, which begun their Nashestvie history in "genre ghettos", recently started to play on the main stage.

Emmaus Festival was held on the old venue without a Nashe license, attracting 40,000 and featuring Aria, Alisa, Agatha Christie, Chaif.
