The EBU has released a statement regarding the postponement of the Eurovision Live Tour 2026 which was set to kick off in June.

The Eurovision Live Tour has been postponed until further notice.

Martin Green CBE (Director Eurovision Song Contest)  says:

We regret to announce that we’ve made the difficult decision to postpone the Eurovision Song Contest Live Tour 2026. 

We have encountered unforeseen challenges that despite the best efforts of our team, the producers, and promoters we have been unable to resolve.

To the thousands of fans who bought tickets, thank you, we will ensure you will be refunded in full as soon as possible. 

We look forward to relaunching the Live Tour when we can ensure the world class experience that our fans expect.  

Our focus remains on delivering an incredible Eurovision Song Contest in May.

The 70th anniversary shows will be celebrated with 35 amazing artists performing to record sell-out audiences in Vienna and hundreds of millions watching around the world.
