40 million singles around the world, will wow the crowd with a
sizzling set list combining the most stunning tracks from his 2010
Spanish/English album release Euphoria, including
monster hit “I Like It” and Nicole Scherzinger collaboration
“Heartbeat” as well as classic tracks from his greatest hits
catalogue including crowd pleasers “Hero” and “Be With You”.

Popular Georgian artists Sofia Nizharadze and
Eldrine will also perform at MTV Live
Georgia.

MTV Live Georgia is set to attract thousands of
young Georgian music fans and holidaymakers to Batumi’s historic
Europe Square for an unforgettable night of live music and
spectacular staging.
