EUROPE: The Final Countdown - 40th Anniversary Tour
In 1986, Swedish rock icons EUROPE released their momentous third album “The Final Countdown” which catapulted the group to international fame with the title track single reaching No1 in 25 countries around the globe. The multi-platinum selling album topped the charts around the globe with four top 40 singles and over 60 weeks on the American billboard charts.
With the continued success of the song into the digital age, the band received an award from YouTube in 2022 for the first Swedish band ever to receive a BILLION views for any one song … and of course the number keeps rising, as of today it’s close to 1.4 Billion Views.
The “The Final Countdown 40th Anniversary” tour will travel across 12 countries including UK, Netherlands, France, Spain, Switzerland, Italy, Germany, Austria, Poland, Denmark, Sweden and Norway taking in 19 concerts. The show will consist of a career retrospective set list culminating in the band playing The Final Countdown Album in its entirety.
Since the release of The Final Countdown the group has continuously toured the world, released eight more albums earning them a Classic Rock Award, a Grammy and many other accolades.
The group is one of the elite number of Artists to retain their complete classic line up and 2026 will also see the release of their 12th studio record. As yet untitled, the album was recorded at RMV studios in Stockholm in October 2025 with famed producer Tom Dalgety (Ghost, The Pixies, Royal Blood, Opeth).
Joey Tempest “In a blink of an eye 40 years have passed and we’re about to perform TFC in full for only the second time in our career, together with other hits and our favorite songs from our upcoming album.
This will be amazing – we’re working on making the production and show match this very special occasion.”

Gregory Porter & Band: THE SPIRIT OF CHRISTMAS TOUR 2026
Acclaimed singer and songwriter Gregory Porter was raised in Bakersfield, California, and he cites the Bakersfield Southern Gospel sound, as well as his mother’s Nat King Cole record collection, as fundamental influences on his own sound.
Porter began singing in small jazz clubs in San Diego while attending San Diego State University on a football scholarship. Eventually Porter moved to New York City to pursue music full-time and his career began to ascend with the release of his first two albums—Water (2010) and Be Good (2012)—both of which received GRAMMY nominations.
In 2013, he released his breakout Blue Note debut Liquid Spirit which quickly grew into a global phenomenon, selling more than a million albums and earning Porter his first GRAMMY Award with NPR declaring him “America’s Next Great Jazz Singer.”
His 2016 follow-up Take Me To The Alley won Porter his second GRAMMY for Best Vocal Jazz Album and firmly established him as his generation’s most soulful jazz singer-songwriter. In 2017, Porter released the heartfelt tribute album Nat King Cole & Me, and in 2020 returned to his original songwriting on the uplifting ALL RISE, both of which received GRAMMY nominations.
His 2021 release Still Rising collected new songs, covers, duets, and a selection of his much-loved favorite songs.
Porter has hosted the podcast The Hang, a conversation series featuring his famous friends, as well as his own cooking show The PorterHouse, in which the singer shared recipes inspired by his local community, experiences from touring the globe, and family cooking traditions from growing up with his mother and seven siblings.
