Roxette In Concert

Roxette is back and will make Budapest dance in November

Although we thought in 2016 that we could say goodbye to Roxette and the chance to hear their evergreen hits live, Per Gessle, the band's founder, has now picked up the torch and will return to the stage in 2025 with Swedish superstar Lena Philipsson on a tour called Roxette In Concert. The first stop on the European tour will be Budapest, on 4 November at the Budapest Arena.

The first leg of Roxette In Concert has just come to an end – and it has been a massive success. The energy was electrifying, with over 75,000 fans singing along to the iconic anthems, proving once again the timeless appeal of Roxette’s music. The response has been extraordinary, with both critics and fans celebrating the powerful performances.

“We may only be in the first quarter of 2025, but Roxette is already the top contender for the best live show of the year.” – Sheldon Ang Media
 
 “More than just a concert, it was a reminder of what live music is supposed to be: uplifting, electric, and unforgettable.” – Music Festivals Australia

It’s been five years since Roxette lost Marie Fredriksson to cancer. Yet, their legacy lives on, with their songs continuously streamed, played, and enjoyed by old and new supporters around the world.

“The first leg of the tour has been an incredible experience. It’s been so emotional and powerful to reconnect with the fans and bring Roxette’s music back to the stage. The response has truly been overwhelming. Marie will always be irreplaceable, but I’m lucky to have found an amazing voice and brilliant performer in Lena Philipsson.” – Said Per Gessle about the tour.

Roxette will be taking this impressive show to several major European cities this year, offering fans a rare opportunity to hear their songs live - a fresh, powerful live version with the same timeless magic that has made Roxette one of the most successful pop acts of all time.

Tickets will be first available for registered Live Nation members on 7 May from 10 am, while general ticket sales start on 9 May at 10am.
