Since this year, mastermind Per Gessle has been performing as Roxette with Swedish singer Lena Philipsson after the death of Marie Fredriksson (2019). On July 22, 2026, the formation will visit the Vienna Danube Island as part of their "Live - Back Again" tour. This was announced by the organizer Weitblick Entertainment on Tuesday. The single concert is embedded between two festival weekends.

On July 17, the island will be under the motto "Baller Island". For the "Mallorca Open Air Festival," acts like Mickie Krause, Mütze Katze, and Der Zipfelbube are expected. The following day, under the motto "It's My Life," the music will take a journey back to the 90s with acts such as Vengaboys, Haddaway, Dr. Alban, and Culture Beat.

On July 24, the time travel leads to the 80s, with the festival "Forever Young" featuring acts like Alphaville, Midge Ure (Ultravox, Visage), Kim Wilde, and Limahl. On the last day, July 25, "Millennium Beats" is on the program: acts like Darius & Finlay, Groove Coverage, and Brooklyn Bounce will pay tribute to the 2000s with their fans.
