Roxette will dominate the Benátská! 2026

In addition, this year 2026 is quite special for the band: Roxette are celebrating 40 years since the release of their debut album, and their megahit It Must Have Been Love has surpassed the magical threshold of one billion plays on Spotify.

A new voice for immortal hits

In order to bring the iconic songs to life live, Per Gessle invited Swedish megastar Lena Philipsson. "I'm very lucky to have found such an amazing voice and a brilliant performer in Lena," says Per. Lena, with whom Per worked at the beginning of her career in 1986, adds: "I was thrilled and honored, when they approached me. The response from audiences around the world has been absolutely overwhelming and I can't wait for another year on the road."

On stage in Liberec, they will be accompanied by a top line-up of musicians, including the original icons of Roxette – keyboardist Clarence Öfwerman and guitarist Jonas Isacsson. You can look forward to a hundred percent concert experience full of hits such as Listen to Your Heart, The Look, It Must Have Been Love, Joyride or Sleeping in My Car.
