The music without borders of André Rieu lands in Málaga on January 27, 2026. The renowned Dutch violinist, known as the King of Waltz, will open his eagerly awaited tour of Spain at the Martín Carpena Sports Palace, where he will offer a show full of emotion, color, and romance along with his inseparable Johann Strauss Orchestra. Málaga will be the first of the four Spanish cities to host this tour, which will continue through Madrid, Valencia, and Barcelona.
A global phenomenon with astonishing figures
With more than 40 million records sold and over 500 platinum awards to his name, André Rieu has established himself as one of the most popular artists on the international scene. His concerts attract more than half a million spectators worldwide each year, and his videos and posts reach millions of people on social media. On this new visit to Spain, the violinist comes accompanied by a large-scale production that promises to captivate the Andalusian audience.
"I am absolutely delighted to return. The warmth and passion of the Spanish audience always move me," Rieu has stated about his return, showing his enthusiasm for sharing his new show with his followers in the country.
An immersive musical experience at Martín Carpena
The concert in Málaga will offer a varied and carefully crafted selection of classical pieces, film soundtracks, opera excerpts, operettas, and popular melodies from around the world.

The show will feature the presence of his famous Johann Strauss Orchestra, composed of 60 musicians and international soloists, who have been with him since 1987. “My orchestra and I... it's something like a marriage. I can't live without them, nor can they without me,” Rieu has often stated, highlighting the spirit of harmony and coexistence that characterizes his tours.
