Wonderful news for music lovers: André Rieu and his renowned Johann Strauss Orchestra will return to Cluj-Napoca in October 2027 for two extraordinary performances.
André Rieu, the celebrated Dutch violinist and conductor known worldwide as the “King of Waltz”, returns to Romania on 21 and 22 October 2027, at BT-Arena in Cluj-Napoca, for two concert evenings set to be among the most eagerly awaited musical events of the year.
Tickets will be available exclusively through the EVENTIM.ro network from Thursday, 5 November 2026, at 11:00 a.m.
With more than 40 million albums sold and over 700,000 spectators attending his more than 80 concerts each year, André Rieu ranks among the world’s most successful live performers. His international tours frequently sell out concert halls and arenas, and his return to Romania promises to be another highlight of his international concert calendar.
Audiences are invited on a fascinating musical journey through a spectacular programme combining opera arias, musical theatre, famous film scores, beloved classical masterpieces, traditional melodies and, of course, the vibrant and emotional waltzes that have made André Rieu famous worldwide. His concerts impress not only through their musical excellence, but also through their captivating atmosphere, elaborate costumes, spectacular sets and impressive lighting effects.
Together with the 60 musicians of the Johann Strauss Orchestra, André Rieu creates memorable evenings filled with emotion, humour and surprises, often turning them into a true celebration of music shared with the audience.
Few artists have brought classical music closer to a wider audience as naturally as André Rieu. Through his performances, millions of people have discovered and rediscovered the beauty of classical music, while the waltz has become a worldwide musical phenomenon. Each international production features its own stage, dedicated costumes and a specialist technical team, delivering a visually impressive show and a high-quality artistic experience at every performance. The orchestra brings together musicians and soloists from more than 18 countries, reflecting its international character.
Born in Maastricht into a family of musicians, André Rieu began studying the violin at the age of five. In 1987, he founded the Johann Strauss Orchestra, which has since become the world’s largest private orchestra. Today, André Rieu is recognised as one of the most successful violinists and one of the best-selling artists in the history of classical music.
With more than 22 million followers on social media and over one billion views on YouTube, André Rieu continues to inspire audiences of all ages around the world.
