The Sirius New Year Music Festival is traditionally built around a theme reflected in its programmes: New Year and Christmas music, themed performances, and vocal, symphonic and choral works dedicated to composers celebrating anniversaries this year and next.

2025–2026 saw many events marking the anniversaries of Ludwig van Beethoven, Dmitri Shostakovich, Pyotr Tchaikovsky, Carl Maria von Weber, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, Alexander Scriabin and other composers.

A new festival culture took shape in 2022 with three flagship events: the Sirius Spring Music Festival, the Sirius Grand Summer Music Festival and the Sirius New Year Music Festival.
