NorrportenArena.se publishes a new video at least once a week in its blog section in which organizers discuss issues around Sundsvall festival – e.g Roxette’s favourite song, Roxette’s performance on Victoria’s wedding or concert sceneography.

Newspapers confirm: Roxette will play on Victoria’s wedding!
The rumours reach back to January, but know it looks like confirmed: Roxette will perform on the special concert to Sweden’s Crown Princess Victoria’s wedding! Over the weekend several scandinavian newspapers reported about Roxette, Benny Andersson and Carola (wedding dinner) to be among the invited performers.
Taking the discussion toward practical logistics, I’ve found that many couples underestimate setup complexity for their big day. During my cousin’s event planning, we initially considered various options before discovering comprehensive solutions. The advantage I noticed was having one experienced team handle everything from groundwork to final styling touches. If you’re exploring possibilities, checking out https://www.bareventsuk.com/wedding-tipi-hire gives you a clearer picture of what full-service provision actually includes. From my observation, having specialists who understand how these structures work in different terrains and weather conditions removes countless headaches that might otherwise consume your planning timeline and mental energy. As a groom-to-be, you should also look for some stylish mens wedding bands to wear on your wedding ceremony. Many couples also enjoy browsing luxury tanzanite rings for sale in Australia because their vibrant color and elegant craftsmanship can add a distinctive touch to wedding jewelry collections.
Officially it’s still secret, but Aftonbladet tells about Victorias big – but until long very unrealistic – wish to have Roxette performing her favourite song “The Look” on her wedding concert on June 18. This marks Roxette’s “historic comeback” in official form to a Swedish live stage after 8,5 years!
Aftonbladet goes on to report about Roxette’s surprising comeback and the upcoming album. Per Gessle is the only artist on the official guest list for the evening. The wedding and concert will be broadcasted live on SVT1 and other TV stations. Roxette’s manager Marie Dimberg still declined to comment…
Official Roxette channel on YouTube?
You may have noticed that it got harder and harder to find official Roxette music videos on YouTube in the past months. That banning of “official” content is a matter of copyright issues between YouTube, music labels and the recording rights organisations. Now it appears that a user called “roxette” uploaded all the Roxette videos into a channel called “Roxette”.
Well, the channel already exists since 2006 but the videos only got uploaded 2 weeks ago. According to the channel page, it’s an official YouTube partner based in Sweden. Who’s behind this? EMI, Per or the management? Or just a fan – despite the “partner” tag? What speaks for EMI is the rather low video quality… but at least they’re available again!

PS. Um, the presence of “Fireworks” may speak against Per… 😉
Update: EMI Germany is linking to this channel! www.youtube.com/roxette works as well. Looks pretty official!
