Per Gessle's Roxette Tickets

Can it really be 30 years since Roxette came crashing onto the music scene? Believe it or not, it is. The band were all over the charts in the mid-'80s, cementing their position as a pop powerhouse with songs such as ‘The Look’, ‘Fading Like A Flower’ and ‘she’s Got Nothing On (But Her Underwear). This autumn, fans of their music will be treated to a handful of live dates in the United Kingdom; two of them at the Eventim Apollo in London and O2 Apollo Manchester during October 2018. You can buy Roxette tickets from this very site!

A Roxette concert is a feel-good festival of everything that was bright, bash and brilliant about the '80s - although it has to be said Roxette weren’t your typical 1980s band. Where other artists looked for lightweight sounds and gymnastic vocals to win over fans, Roxette relied on what they knew best: great musicianship and catchy hooks. Marie Fredrikkson’s ice-cool vocals, pixie-punk haircut and rock ‘n’ roll swagger are still ably supported by Per Gessle’s uncanny abilities with virtually every instrument he touches. Together, the duo evoke great memories of one of music’s most fun-filled eras.

Second only to Abba in terms of Swedish musical exports, Roxette aren’t just about up-tempo, energetic pop. They also know their way around a ballad or two. In case you’ve forgotten, one of their compositions was used as the main theme in the film, Pretty Woman’, starring Richard Gere and Julia Roberts. The director, Garry Marshall, was so pleased with it that he allowed the song to run for a full minute, over a montage of his two leading actors.

Going to a Roxette concert is the perfect way to recapture more carefree times and the pair certainly know how to get an audience going! While there are a few tunes from later albums, the mainstay of any Roxette concert is the tunes the crowd all know and love. If you haven’t seen them before - expect an evening where you’ll know most of the words to most of the songs and you’ll find yourself singing them, along with the rest of the audience.

With only limited Roxette tour dates scheduled for England, Roxette tickets are going to be hard to come by. Luckily, at Gigantic we’ve got great tickets to both nights! Look through the tour dates below, book your tickets and get ready for a night of pure '80s power-pop.
