Eurovision Live Tour will bring a 70th anniversary concert series to the Nordics this summer, with confirmed stops at Royal Arena in Copenhagen on 25 June 2026 and Avicii Arena in Stockholm on 2 July 2026. The European Broadcasting Union (EBU) says the tour is designed to celebrate seven decades of the Eurovision Song Contest with a mix of 2026 finalists, past icons, and city-by-city surprise guests.
Dates in Copenhagen and Stockholm, and what is confirmed so far
According to the EBU, the Copenhagen date is scheduled for Thursday 25 June at Royal Arena, while Stockholm will host the final tour stop on Thursday 2 July at Avicii Arena. Both events are listed as part of a 10-city run across Europe, starting in mid-June and concluding in Sweden.
For now, Eurovision has not published a full artist list for either Nordic show. The official tour page says announcements are pending and that ticket information is still “releasing soon”.
Line-up: 2026 finalists, Eurovision icons, and surprise guest performers
The tour’s concept mixes two different kinds of Eurovision nostalgia.
First, the EBU plans to bring 10 artists from the 2026 Grand Final on the road, offering fans a chance to see part of the new Eurovision class outside the host country. Second, each show is expected to feature Eurovision Song Contest icons performing “timeless” songs from the contest’s seven-decade history.
In addition, Eurovision has promised surprise guest performers in every city, meaning the Copenhagen and Stockholm shows may include locally resonant acts beyond the touring line-up.
Ticket details: what fans can expect in the coming weeks
Eurovision has not yet opened general ticket sales for the tour dates, and the EBU has not provided event-by-event pricing. The official communication so far focuses on the schedule and the format, with further announcements expected closer to the Eurovision Song Contest 2026 Grand Final.
For Copenhagen and Stockholm audiences, the main open questions are the same as elsewhere on the tour: which 2026 finalists will be included, which former winners or fan favourites will be designated as “icons”, and whether the surprise guests will be drawn from national selections or broader European pop line-ups.
Why the EBU is turning Eurovision into a touring format
The Eurovision Live Tour marks the first official attempt to translate the contest’s TV and arena spectacle into a multi-city touring product. For the EBU, it is a way to extend the Eurovision calendar beyond May and to reach fans who do not travel to the host city.
For Nordic audiences, the two dates are also a reminder of how central Scandinavia remains to the contest’s live ecosystem: Copenhagen and Stockholm are both established arena markets, and Sweden in particular remains one of Eurovision’s strongest fan bases and production reference points.
As Eurovision releases the artist line-up and ticket details, the Copenhagen and Stockholm dates are likely to become early indicators of how the tour will balance spectacle, nostalgia, and the post-contest momentum of the 2026 finalists.
