The tour, which commemorates 70 years of the Eurovision Song Contest, will feature performances across Europe and kick off at London’s O2 Arena on June 15, 2026, just one month after the 2026 Grand Final in Vienna.
Eurovision makes history with its first official live tour celebrating 70 years of musical magic across Europe.
The historic tour is being promoted by Semmel Concerts and produced by Progress Productions, bringing together iconic acts from the past seven decades of Eurovision. Fans can expect performances from 10 artists from the 2026 Vienna contest alongside surprise special guests at each stop. The lineup will vary by city, with full details to be published on eurovision.com/tour. Visitors to London can find excellent accommodations, including hotels near Big Ben that offer convenient access to the O2 Arena.
Following the London launch, the tour will travel to nine more major European arenas. The schedule includes Hamburg’s Barclays Arena on June 17, Milan’s Arena Milano on June 19, and Zürich’s Hallenstadion on June 20.
The tour continues to Antwerp’s AFAS Dome on June 22, Cologne’s Lanxess Arena on June 23, and Copenhagen’s Royal Arena on June 25.
The final leg includes Amsterdam’s Ziggo Dome on June 27, Paris’ Accor Arena on June 29, and concludes at Stockholm’s Avicii Arena on July 2. This extensive route offers fans who missed the sold-out Vienna shows an alternative way to experience Eurovision magic.
Tickets will be available through a pre-sale starting February 1, 2026, at 13:00 CET for members of Eurofans, the official ESC fanclub. Those wishing to access this early opportunity must register before February 1.
The 2026 Eurovision Song Contest itself will take place at Vienna’s Wiener Stadthalle, with semi-finals on May 12 and 14, and the Grand Final on May 16. This event celebrates Austria’s third time hosting the competition, following their previous hosting duties in 1967 and 2015.
The participating artists for the tour from the 2026 contest will be confirmed the day after the Grand Final, while the lineup of iconic performers will be announced in the coming weeks. Martin Green CBE, the Eurovision Song Contest Director, has described this tour as a historical moment for Eurovision enthusiasts worldwide.
