André Rieu - Tour 2025

Reunion with the Waltz King in Vienna! As part of his 2025 world tour, star violinist André Rieu will return to the Wiener Stadthalle with his Johann Strauss Orchestra on November 20, 2025. Along with numerous soloists, the young exceptional singer Emma Kok will also be joining him again.

With more than 700,000 visitors annually at over 80 concerts worldwide, André Rieu is undoubtedly one of the most successful live acts in the world. His world tours regularly take him to sold-out arenas across Europe, the UK, the USA, and South America. Rieu travels with a team of over 100 people, including several chefs, a doctor, and a fitness trainer.

“It’s always such a pleasure to come back to Vienna. Austria and the music of Johann Strauss have always played a special role in my life and concerts. The atmosphere and audience in Vienna are simply fantastic every time,“ Rieu shares.

His concerts are imbued with a unique charm that captivates audiences from the start. The elaborate costumes, spectacular lighting effects, and warm interaction with the audience create a unique atmosphere, inviting everyone to share in the joy of the music. Rieu’s passion and charisma, along with the lively performance of his 60-member orchestra—the largest private orchestra in the world—make each concert an unforgettable experience that touches every heart. In 2025, guests can once again look forward to romantic melodies, stirring rhythms, and emotional performances. The colorful program includes popular pieces from operas, musicals, and film scores, as well as beloved classics and lively waltzes.

Of particular note is the young exceptional singer Emma Kok, who will perform as a special guest in Vienna in 2025. The 16-year-old, who has been fed intravenously due to gastric paralysis since birth, captivated audiences at the Maastricht Summer Concerts in 2023 with her moving rendition of the French Eurovision song “Voilà,“ which quickly gained worldwide recognition with over three billion views on YouTube. In 2024, she thrilled the audience in Maastricht with her new hit, “Dancing with the Stars.”

With his new album, The Sound of Heaven (available in stores starting December 6, 2024), André Rieu once again sets new standards: from Georg Friedrich Handel to Andrew Lloyd Webber, from Giacomo Puccini to ABBA, from Charles Gounod to John Williams—The Sound of Heaven delights with melodies from musicals like The Phantom of the Opera, The Sound of Music, and West Side Story, film scores from Star Wars and Titanic, as well as classic pieces like Charles Gounod’s and Karl Jenkins’s Benedictus. The album also includes a bonus DVD with highlights from Rieu's concerts.

Look forward to an unforgettable evening with the Waltz King and his Johann Strauss Orchestra on November 20, 2025, in Vienna!
