Winter "Lilies of the Valley": a pre-New Year premiere of the second season of one of the year’s most popular series was held at the National Centre RUSSIA
A festive evening dedicated to the premiere of the continuation of one of Russia’s most popular series of the year, Wink’s "Lilies of the Valley. Second Spring", was held on 18 December at the National Centre RUSSIA.
"In December 2024, when we presented the musical tracks from the series "Lilies of the Valley", there were many people, but the venue was very small. Today’s hall is incomparably larger — and there are so many viewers whose hearts this story has touched. A year ago, the lead actors Nika Zdorik and Seryozha Gorodnichiy were shy when coming on stage. Back then I told them: be more confident, tomorrow you will wake up as real stars. And that is exactly what happened. We truly hope that you will watch the second season with the same enthusiasm, love it just as much and worry about the characters in the same way," said the Director General of the Internet Development Institute (IRI/IDI), Yelena Lapina.
Words of gratitude and warm wishes were also addressed to the audience from the stage by the project’s chief inspiration — the author of the idea, producer and screenwriter of the series, Director General of the company World Russian Studios, Yuri Sapronov.
"It so happened that today is our film company’s birthday. And this is probably the coolest birthday one could imagine. Thank you all so much for coming together here today. I wish every Katya to find her Lyokha, and every Lyokha to find his Katya. And I wish everyone to have the same tender love — next year and throughout their lives. Happy New Year, happiness, success, good luck and love to all of you," Yuri Sapronov shared.
The hosts of the evening were rapper ST and his wife Assol. The event transported guests into a cosy New Year living room filled with pre-holiday bustle. 7 Stations, Natalika, and the duo NANSI & SIDOROV took part in a cheerful culinary challenge, preparing the traditional Olivier salad, and also performed their main hits and presented new tracks that will be included in the soundtrack of the second season. Bands Komnata Kultury (Culture Room), NEMIGA, and BEAUTIFUL BOYS also helped create the festive pre-New Year atmosphere.
During a lively interactive segment, the actors of the series guessed hidden details, recalled key scenes and shared insights about the new season.
As a reminder, the first season of the love story of wealthy heiress Katya, played by Nika Zdorik, and the ordinary young man Lyokha, portrayed by Sergei Gorodnichiy, became a true TV hit, winning over viewers’ hearts. Since its premiere in January 2025, "Lilies of the Valley. Such Tender Love" has amassed more than 100 million views across various platforms and on television, maintaining its status as one of the most popular Russian series of 2025. The premiere of the second season of "Lilies of the Valley" will take place on the Wink.ru platform on 1 January 2026.
