Roxette In Concert 2025 – Weert – 12th July 2025 – #19

After 8 days off, the next festival gig happened in Weert, The Netherlands today. Roxette performed at Bospop Festival in the afternoon.

The band entered the stage at 15:45 and played for one hour, so the setlist was much shorter than at previous festival shows. This didn’t hold them back from making a party!

Anton Corbijn was there too!

At the merch stand, you could buy Rox tees and now the dates are updated, but the last 3 Norwegian concerts will probably be printed upon the next update. However, hint hint, there is a November 9 Helsinki show added between Prague and Copenhagen among the dates.

Per on Facebook:

BOSPOP! Wow, what can we say? Amazing!!! Had a blast with this shorter version of the show. Only 60 minutes. It felt like we were a living jukebox! Thx for all your very loud voices and for helping us out. First time we played this big in many years. Not the last we hope hahaha!

Lena after the gig:

Wonderful day at Bospop Festival!

Comment from Per Gessle

Oh yeah! BosPop was fab. An honour to share the same stage as Ringo & his pals. Edgar W turned out to be a fan. And thanks to all of you showing up and giving us all your support at this festival. Kinda different for us, we haven’t done that many f-vals throughout the years but it felt really good. Bright sunshine in our eyes, though….. and we thought the midnight sun was way up north….. A great day. Cheers, P&M

From festivalinfo.nl review

The duo opens with ‘Dressed for Success’ and the party called ‘Roxette’ is on. The audience has been in sing-along-mode all weekend and is at its peak during Roxette. Even during Joe Cocker and Ringo Starr there wasn’t as much response as during ‘Wish I could Fly’*. Roxette can relax today, the audience sings for them. Singer/guitarist Per says that ‘7Twenty7’ is his favourite song and you can only agree. A powerful song, but unknown for many. It sticks in your head though and is the most remarkable song next to their greatest hits. The last three songs are the real classics. During ‘Joyride’ balloons appear from the audience and the crowd seems to have a great time still. ‘Listen to your heart’ and ‘The Look’ end the sing-along set of Roxette, a band that should not have missed from the festival.

WICF wasn’t performed this evening 😉

Misc

The concert was part of the Bospop Festival. Over 25,000 people attended the festival. Nienke Griffioen informed on Facebook that Marie and Per was just in front of the stage during the Ringo Star concert, which took place just before Roxette’s one. No encore this time and it is the shortest concert on this tour so far. Marie wore “The Beatels” T-shirt during the concert.
