According to TheRaceLegends.com, Eventim.se became a new reseller of Roxette concert tickets. The tickets will be released on Tuesday, February 16th at 10.00 AM and will be sold through Eventim.se, LiveNation.se, Eventim call center 0046 771 651 000 and all Eventim agents in Sweden.
The Daily Roxette also informs that there is no need to worry – Biljettnu.se tickets are still valid.
Swedish Radio P4 Jönköping (the county where Roxette’s concert will take place) broadcasted the interview with The Race Legends’ CEO Urban Stamming on January 28th, where he confirmed that Roxette would play the whole concert and everyone who buys the three-days ticket will be able to attend the gig. He even said that Roxette started rehearsals for this concert in Halmstad! (We do not know if it is true or not – I can only assume it’s a rumour). Urban wasn’t also sure if there are going to be more concert with Roxette in Europe in 2010.
So if you have a chance to visit Anderstorp, don’t miss it!

Welcome to a spectacular weekend!
According to Aftonbladet‘s article Roxette is going to perform on a Anderstorp Raceway in Småland region, Sweden on August 14th during “The Race Legends” event. Over 10,000 people will be able to see Roxette’s performance, more than 45,000 will attend the whole event.
“Roxette hasn’t played Sweden since 2001, it feels great to be on stage in Sweden again. This will be much fun, I have been there several times and actually even raced there, too”, says Per Gessle.
According to TDR, the concert will last for about 90 minutes.
At the moment you can buy tickets only for the whole event. There will be few tickets especially dedicated for this concert, but it is unknown when they will be released.
Update: TDR added a short interview with Per. Yes, they aim to play a full show, running 60-70 minutes – but yes, there may be other artists as well. And there are more Roxette “things” to come beside this and the new album!
And Per likes to hear our wishes:
If you have nothing to do…. Pls write down your song suggestions for the Anderstorp show. Look forward to the hidden gems…
The gig is organized by Live Nation.
