In 2016 Roxette did what we believed was to be the last ever concerts.
Now, the duo’s frontman, songwriter, and founder Per Gessle picks up the torch and takes this bundle of worldwide hits on the road again.
It’s almost five years ago since Roxette lost Marie Fredriksson to cancer. A devastating loss that left family, friends, and fans in grief.
Their legacy of songs has continued to thrive, being constantly streamed, played, and enjoyed by old and new supporters around the world.
The super Swedes were a hit-making machine in Australia achieving four x Top 3 albums with Look Sharp!, Joyride, Tourism and
2025 will see a live revival of this massive catalogue, all penned by Per Gessle, when he takes the Roxette band back on stage to do what he loves the most; perform his songs live in front of a dedicated audience.
Per and the Roxette band will be joined on stage by Swedish singer and megastar Ms Lena Philipsson.
Per says: “This is all about my Roxette songs, this huge bundle of music and lyrics I’ve been writing for well over three decades. I’m not starting a new duo. Marie will always be irreplaceable. However, I’m really lucky to have found an amazing voice and a brilliant performer in Lena Philipsson.
I co-wrote Lena’s first major hit back in 1986 and she’s one of the brightest shining stars Sweden has ever known. I’m extremely proud she wants to join me in my trek to keep the Roxette legacy alive.”
Lena says: “I’m both excited and thrilled about embarking on this tour. I really look forward to working with Per – he is a phenomenal songwriter and a never-ending musical force.”
The Roxette band will consist of Christoffer Lundquist, Magnus Börjeson, Magnus “Norpan” Eriksson, Dea Norberg as well as original Roxette icons Clarence Öfwerman and Jonas Isacsson.
Nine years since the last tour, “Roxette in Concert” will begin the Australian leg in Perth, before playing shows in Melbourne, Sydney, Wollongong, Adelaide, and Hobart. These will be followed by a day on the green shows at the Hunter Valley’s Bimbadgen and Mount Cotton’s Sirromet Wines.
Opening for Roxette will be one of Australia’s biggest names in rock, Jon Stevens (Perth and a day on the green shows only), and Aussie pop rock superstars Boom Crash Opera (all shows).
Pre-sales start at 10am local on Wednesday 8 May until 9am local on Friday 10 May.

My nickname is “The Amnplifier”. Why? Because around here my focus is on being a conduit for providing greater outcomes that people come here for. My day to day “work” is living in the moment, and I love helping others concentrate on finding their connection to themselves through their experiences.
Why start a music environment? The truth is I love music, I love writing, and I love life. I work with musicians every day, and I feel certain that I will be until they put me in the ground. I have been managing people in businesses of some sort for over thirty five years so along the way I have developed some “wisdom” from my regular and constant “observations”.
Amnplify your experience. That is what we want you to do here, and if you want to let me know why you do, or don’t, shoot me a message on Facebook.
Hope you enjoy yourself here and find something that hits you somewhere.
