Roxette’s timeless pop anthems are returning to Prague’s O2 Arena this fall.
On November 6, 2025, founding member Per Gessle will take the stage once again, joined by Swedish pop star Lena Philipsson, whose powerful vocals will breathe new life into Roxette’s greatest songs.
Fans can look forward to “It Must Have Been Love,” “Listen to Your Heart,” “The Look,” and other chart-topping classics that helped define a generation.
The 2025 tour, titled “Roxette in Concert,” marks a revival many thought would never happen. After what were believed to be their final shows in 2016, the band stepped back—especially after the heartbreaking passing of Marie Fredriksson in 2019, who died of cancer at age 61.
Nearly a decade later, Gessle is picking up the torch—not to replace Fredriksson, but to honor her legacy. With Philipsson’s stage charisma and vocal range, the new tour offers a respectful yet energized reinterpretation of Roxette’s catalogue.
The first leg of the tour, which just wrapped up, saw more than 75,000 fans attending across several cities. Audience reactions were ecstatic, with both longtime followers and a new generation of listeners singing along to every word.
“It was more than just a concert,” wrote Music Festivals Australia. “It was a reminder of what live music should be: uplifting, electrifying, and unforgettable.”
The band lineup includes several longtime Roxette collaborators, such as Christoffer Lundquist, Magnus Börjeson, Magnus “Norpan” Eriksson, Dea Norberg, and original Roxette legends Clarence Öfwerman and Jonas Isacsson.
Tickets for the Prague show at O2 Arena are expected to sell out fast. Fans are encouraged to secure their seats early for what promises to be one of the musical highlights of the year.
