Roxette In Concert 2025 – Nuremberg – 26th November 2025 – #37

by

Without a day off, the band travelled to Nuremberg to perform their last German show on this tour leg. The venue was the local ice hockey stadium, PSD Bank Nürnberg Arena.

This was the concert with the least hardcore fans so far and this way there weren’t too many people waiting outside the venue before the doors opened at 18:30. However, by the time Roxette entered the stage at 20:00, the arena was fully packed.

During the band presentation Magnus said he is happy sad. He is happy, because they go home for a few days, but sad, because they are leaving Germany. The crowd reacted with an „aaaaw!” The Germans were so good to them, Magnus said. Per agreed and thanked Magnus for his wise words.

Chris played Pippi Langstrumpf as the intro to Joyride.

The loudest crowd reaction was their sing-along to It Must Have Been Love after Lena dedicated it to Marie and the clapping along Christoffer’s intro.

Now a few days off for the gang to get ready for London and the last 6 shows of this tour leg. Mr. G can have some more ginger tea and get as fit as a fiddle during the next few days. It seems that he has been fighting a cold for at least the last two shows, but despite this he gives 110% energy and you couldn’t wipe the smile off his face while performing.

No changes in the setlist.

Roxette In Concert 2025 – Düsseldorf – 25th November 2025 – #36

by

The band had one day break and they spent it in Düsseldorf. Christmas markets and Kraftwerk – the city has a lot to offer.

Before the gig, the organizers met Per and Lena to celebrate their sold-out concert.

This was the only show that was fully seated in Germany, so fans arrived only late, closer to the start of the show. The concert was to start at 20:00, but a lot of people were still in the hall, taking their drinks and stuff, so with a little delay, the gig kicked off at 20:10.

The band entered the stage first, then Per and Lena, as usual, and it was amazing to see that right at the second when Per entered, everyone jumped up from their seats. And when I say everyone, I mean EVERYONE, on the floor and on the upper levels as well. Aaah, it was such a great feeling! And actually, everyone stayed standing during the whole show. During the ballads too.

Per greeted the crowd with a „Guten Abend!” and after introducing Lena, he asked her how she was doing. Lena’s answer was „Mir geht’s super!” and Per said „It’s Tuesday.” Lena said „yes, it’s Tuesday. Perfect! I love Tuesdays!” Haha.

During the band presentation Per asked Magnus how he was doing. He said he was doing great in the music city of Düsseldorf. They call it the Liverpool of Germany, they have many great bands and they have their own fab four, Kraftwerk. Magnus shouted „thank you for the music, Düsseldorf!” Per thanked for the history lesson.

Chris played Pippi Langstrumpf as the wild intro to Joyride, and it worked perfectly.

If I said it gets harder and harder to name the Top5 shows in Frankfurt, then what can I say in Düsseldorf…? Awesomeness on stage, amazingness off stage. Loud, dancing audience with some cool reactions and a lot of action on stage between the band members and Per and Lena. Yeah, I have to add this show to my Top5 too. Maybe even Top3! Haha.

Roxette In Concert 2025 – Copenhagen – 12th November 2025 – #29

by

Roxette arrived in Copenhagen, Denmark last night to perform at Royal Arena. We met Christoffer before the show and he said Magnus attended concerts at this venue and said it’s a great one, the sound is always very good. We were eager to find out if that was true.

The band went on stage at 21:00 after a local support act, Halberg & Friends. Already during the opening act’s performance we could see that the crowd was in party mood. People stood up from their seats and danced to the songs and they were singing along loudly.

The sound in the arena was really amazing! Roxette sounded awesome and the crowd’s sing-along was so loud and clear. The audience had a fab time on this Wednesday night in the fully packed arena and already stood up from their seats at Dressed For Success. We usually sat down again during the ballads, but during the encore we stayed standing. Both the gang on stage and the audience off stage was so powerful! So Copenhagen easily has become the best gig so far on the autumn leg!

Per and Lena talked to the audience in English in between the songs, but when Per introduced Lena after Sleeping In My Car, she asked in Swedish if there were some Swedes in the crowd. She got a loud reaction, so there were quite some Swedes. Before It Must Have Been Love, Lena talked a bit in Swedish again and of course, dedicated it to Marie.

Chris played Pippi Långstrump as the intro to Joyride. The crowd was singing along loudly.

Roxette In Concert 2025 – Helsinki – 9th November 2025 – #28

by

After two days off, the gang showed up at Veikkaus Arena (formerly known as Hartwall Arena) in Helsinki.

The doors opened at 18:30 and there was no support act, so the band was set to start the show at 20:00 and they went on stage exactly at that time.

The show was fully seated and there were no screens in the arena, so it was even trickier to stand up here than in Prague, because then you knew you would completely block the view for those sitting behind you. Anyway… hint: we stood up at some point. Haha.

Per greeted the crowd after Sleeping In My Car and he said he thought they would be home watching the hockey game tonight. Haha. Obviously not. He said it’s always a treat to play in Helsinki. Then he introduced Lena and asked her how she felt. Lena said she felt great: „We are in Helsinki, for God’s sake!” And she greeted the audience in Swedish too. [Swedish is also an official language in Finland. /PP] The crowd cheered her loudly. Finnish people know Lena much better than in other countries, because Finland is also a big ESC fan and they know Lena mainly from the Eurovision Song Contest.

After Fading Like A Flower, someone in the audience shouted: „Bravo, Lena!” Lena thanked him in Swedish and the guy shouted back: „Good job!” in Swedish.

Finnish people are more reserved than the Czech, so the security team didn’t have to come and say they shouldn’t stand up, because they wouldn’t anyway. Haha. Blame it on the international fans and yeah, the braver Finnish people that in the end, people started to stand up from their seats at Dangerous. The security team only asked us not to rush to the area right in front of the stage to leave space for them if anything happens, but they let us be standing between the sections. Very nice of them. More and more people stood up and by the second half of the encore, most of the arena was standing.

Chris played Säkkijärven polkka as the intro to Joyride. The crowd reaction to that was just as amazing as Christoffer’s playing.

When Lena and Per came back for the encore to play Spending My Time, they had a lovely conversation.

Per: – So it’s just the two of us now, Lena.

Lena: – I know. It’s a bit scary, but I trust you, Per. (Someone in the crowd shouted: „So do we!” Haha.)

Per: – I wrote this song the same day I wrote Joyride. Joyride in the morning, this one in the afternoon. I probably skipped lunch.

Lena: – Genius!

The acoustics of the venue were amazing! The band sounded simply wonderful and the audience’s sound was so clear too. Per also mentioned it several times that the crowd sounds terrific. Both their sing-along and their clapping was fabulous.
