FOREIGNER - 50TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR

In the organizer's words:

FOREIGNER bring their 50TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR to Germany in summer 2026. Eight open-air shows in June and July will celebrate half a century of rock history.

Advance booking starts: 05.09.2025 at 11 am (Presale: 03.09.2025 via CTS & myticket)

FOREIGNER will celebrate their 50th band anniversary in 2026 with an exclusive 50TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR and return to Germany for eight selected open-air shows. The tour offers a look back at five decades of rock history and brings together the greatest anthems of one of the most successful classic rock bands of all time.

With 10 multi-platinum albums, 16 top 30 hits and over 80 million records sold, FOREIGNER are one of the most popular rock acts in the world. Songs such as Cold As Ice, Juke Box Hero, Urgent, Waiting for a Girl Like You and the worldwide hit I Want To Know What Love Is are part of the genre's permanent repertoire and an integral part of the international rock legacy. In 2024, FOREIGNER was inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame - another milestone in the band's career.

The setlist of the 50TH ANNIVERSARY TOUR spans from the early successes of the 70s to the legendary album 4, which stayed at No. 1 on the Billboard charts longer than any other album in the history of Atlantic Records, to more recent successes and classics. The energetic live presence of the current line-up with Luis Maldonado, who will switch from guitar to lead vocals in the fall of 2025 and take over the role of frontman after the retirement of Kelly Hansen, who has shaped the band as a voice for over two decades, and long-time Foreigner members Jeff Pilson (bass), Michael Bluestein (keyboards), Bruce Watson (guitar) and Chris Frazier (drums) guarantees a concert experience that will be celebrated on all continents.

The fact that FOREIGNER are still at the top of their game after five decades is proven not only by over 15 million audio and video streams per week, but also by recent chart successes and viral uses in hit series such as Stranger Things, Wednesday, Euphoria and films such as The Eternals, Good Boys and Happy Gilmore 2.

An open-air highlight that brings the soundtrack of entire generations to the stage - impressive, full of energy and timeless.
