Hamburg, 28/01/2027
André Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra bring their touring production to Hamburg’s Barclays Arena on Thursday, 28 January 2027, the night before the tour concludes this German run in Hannover. The concert starts at 20:00.
Hamburg’s status as one of Germany’s great cultural and port cities makes it a natural fit for a touring production of this scale, and Rieu’s shows have consistently drawn strong audiences in northern Germany over the years. The mix of grand orchestral sound and warm, accessible showmanship continues to find new fans with every visit.
Expect a programme moving between sweeping Strauss waltzes, operatic highlights, popular film themes and well-loved classics, staged with the elaborate costumes, lighting design and theatrical flourishes that have become the production’s trademark. Guest vocalists and instrumental soloists typically join the orchestra throughout the evening.
Barclays Arena opened in 2002 and is northern Germany’s largest multifunctional arena, with a concert capacity of up to 16,000, having hosted more than 2,000 concerts and major events since it opened.
Doors are expected to open roughly ninety minutes before the 20:00 start. The performance typically runs for about two and a half hours, including a 20-minute interval.
Hamburg’s historic harbour, the Speicherstadt warehouse district and the wider Elbe waterfront make it an easy city to combine with a concert visit, particularly for anyone travelling from elsewhere in northern Europe.
The Hamburg date sits near the end of this German stretch of the tour, with the schedule continuing to Hannover the following night, on 29 January.
Tickets for Hamburg are available now, and given the pace at which other stops on this tour have moved, early booking is worth considering for anyone hoping to see André Rieu and the Johann Strauss Orchestra live on 28 January.
