Andre Rieu: UK Tour Dates, Tickets, Health and Latest News

James Thomas Howard Thompson • 2026-11-01 • Reviewed by Sofia Lindberg

Searches for André Rieu turn up conflicting dates, prices and rumours, but the 2026 UK schedule is the part the organiser and venues actually document. The clearest fact so far: the André Rieu Press Room lists the September 2026 UK leg opening on in Aberdeen, and personal claims the sources do not back up get a plain answer here.

The pattern: the first two cards lean on the organiser and venues, while the open cards hold the prices and the personal-life gaps.

Nine rows, one pattern: every confirmed date traces back to the organiser or a venue, while the prices come from resale sites and a regional newspaper and the personal-life rows stay empty.

What is the latest news on André Rieu?

The 2026 UK and Ireland tour ran in two parts. Rieu World describes an April stop at Belfast’s SSE Arena on 9 April and Dublin’s 3Arena on 10–11 April, followed by a September UK leg from Aberdeen to Birmingham.

The same fan site counts eight concerts across seven UK cities over eleven days, and says a second London night at OVO Arena Wembley was added after demand for the first. Stereoboard, ticketing news site reports the September 2026 arena shows followed the pair of Irish dates in April.

The upshot

Adding a second London night is the strongest demand signal in the record, and it means an older listing can show one date where the schedule now has two.

The implication: the 2026 schedule is the best-documented part of this story, so start any date check on the venue listing rather than a fan roundup.

Is André Rieu coming to the UK in 2026?

Yes. The André Rieu Press Room lists the September 2026 UK dates below.

  • 9 September: Aberdeen P&J Live
  • 10 September: Glasgow OVO Hydro
  • 11 September: Manchester Co-op Live
  • 12 September: Liverpool M&S Bank Arena
  • 16 September: Nottingham Motorpoint Arena
  • 17–18 September: London OVO Arena Wembley
  • 19 September: Birmingham bp pulse LIVE

For 2027, the André Rieu official tour page lists September dates including Dublin’s 3Arena on 10 September and London’s OVO Arena Wembley on 17 September. Ents24, ticketing aggregator adds Newcastle, Liverpool and Leeds in early October.

Rieu World wrote on 19 October 2026 that the official calendar then listed no UK or Ireland dates for 2027. That conflicts with the official page as we read it, so check the page directly before you plan a trip.

How much does it cost to go to an André Rieu concert?

  • Seat Unique, the venue hospitality partner, sells official VIP and hospitality packages for the 2026 UK tour from £120 (Seat Unique, venue hospitality partner).
  • The cheapest 2027 UK ticket Chad.co.uk found was £66.95 for Glasgow, and VIP tickets for Liverpool start from £195 (Chad.co.uk, regional newspaper).
  • At Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena, Premium Suites start at £250 and Premium Super Suites at £325 (Chad.co.uk, regional newspaper).
  • According to SeatPick (resale marketplace, not an official seller), UK 2026 listings started at £54 to £77 at the low end.
The catch

Those prices are not face value. Stereoboard (ticketing news site) explains that “Sold Out” means no official primary tickets are available from the organiser at face value, so resale figures are secondary-market prices.

The implication: budget for the official hospitality price and the resale price separately, because the only published figures in the material are either hospitality packages or resale listings.

Bottom line: The 2026 UK dates are documented by the organiser and venues, but no official face-value price appears in the material. Fans who book through official venue links avoid the validity risk OVO warns about for resold tickets, and resale buyers pay prices that Rieu World says sellers set and that may sit above or below face value.

The pattern: no official face-value fare appears for either year, so the figures above are a range to budget against rather than a price to book at.

How is André Rieu’s health today?

The material gathered for this piece contains no dated, sourced health statement from André Rieu, his orchestra or his representatives. The official tour page, the OVO Arena Wembley listing and the ticket and fan sites in our notes say nothing about his condition.

That silence matters to anyone deciding whether a show is worth the trip. A ticket page confirms a date, not a performer’s fitness.

  • No verified health update appears in the sources reviewed.
  • Any future update should carry a named source and a date.

The trade-off: the question is about a person, and the public record here stops at tour logistics.

Is André Rieu still married to Marjorie?

No verified statement on his current marital status appears in the inputs. The question is common, but the answer in our notes is a gap rather than a yes or a no.

We left out personal-profile claims that are not attributed to a named, dated source, including claims about his character, such as whether he is nice in real life, and claims about languages he speaks. Why this matters: a reader who wants a personal answer gets an honest gap here, which is more useful than a confident claim with no source behind it.

What is André Rieu’s net worth?

No verified net worth figure appears in the material reviewed, so this article does not give one. Ticket prices are not a stand-in, because they show what fans pay to attend and say nothing about the performer’s wealth.

Musician pay follows the same rule. Pay for the orchestra’s players needs a named, dated source, and none was supplied.

  • Net worth: no verified figure
  • Musician pay: no named, dated source supplied
  • Ticket prices: buyer costs, not performer income

The trade-off: a gap is less satisfying than a number, but a number without a source would fail the same check.

Timeline signal

Seven dates anchor the record, and each one traces to a named source rather than a fan summary.

  • : Belfast SSE Arena concert, 2026 leg (Rieu World)
  • : Dublin 3Arena concerts (Rieu World)
  • : Aberdeen P&J Live opens the September UK leg (André Rieu Press Room)
  • : two London nights at OVO Arena Wembley (OVO Arena Wembley)
  • : Birmingham bp pulse LIVE closes the UK leg (Rieu World)
  • : the UK and Ireland leg opens in Belfast (Ents24)
  • : Leeds, the last date listed for the 2027 leg (Ents24)

The pattern: the 2026 dates have a press room, a venue page and a fan site all agreeing, while the 2027 dates lean on aggregators until the official page’s full list is checked.

Confirmed facts and open questions

Confirmed facts

  • The September 2026 UK leg runs from 9 September to 19 September (André Rieu Press Room).
  • OVO Arena Wembley hosts two nights, 17 and 18 September 2026 (OVO Arena Wembley).
  • The official site tells buyers to use concert-agenda links or venue websites (André Rieu official tour page).
  • Under-14s must be accompanied by an adult in seated areas at OVO Arena Wembley (OVO Arena Wembley).

What’s unclear

  • Official face-value prices for any UK 2026 or 2027 date.
  • The 2027 Belfast venue: Get To The Front, music listings and Ents24 name The O2, but a primary-vendor check is incomplete.
  • A 5 June 2027 Glasgow listing at SWG3 Warehouse, which conflicts with the September 2027 OVO Hydro dates (EventsList.co.uk).
  • Whether the 2027 calendar lists UK dates at all, given Rieu World’s 19 October 2026 note.
  • Marital status, health, net worth and pay.
  • Ireland pricing and VAT treatment.

The implication: the confirmed list is short and sourced, while the open list is longer, so treat any undated or unsourced date as a question to check.

What the sources say

Three named sources speak directly in the material, and their wording shows where each source’s authority ends.

“World-renowned violinist and conductor André Rieu is thrilled to announce his highly anticipated return to the United Kingdom and Ireland in 2026.”

OVO Arena Wembley event listing (venue promotional copy)

“We therefore advise you only to buy your André Rieu tickets via links in our concert agenda or else via the website of the location where the event is being held.”

André Rieu official website (official tour page)

“Prices are set by sellers and may be above or below face value.”

Rieu World, fan news publisher and site notice

What this means: the venue’s copy sells the tour, while the official site and the fan publisher both warn about where and at what price to buy, so the gap between those two messages is the story.

What to do before you buy

The clearest part of the André Rieu story is the 2026 calendar, which the organiser publishes with dates and sale rules through the André Rieu Press Room. Everything else sits in the gap: no verified health or marriage update, no net worth figure, and no face-value price for UK shows. UK ticket buyers who skip the official venue links take on resale prices that can sit above or below face value.
