Lux Tour

In June 2025, Hits revealed that Rosalía would embark on an arena tour in 2026. It also confirmed that she had signed with September Management and that her new album was expected to be released before the end of the year.^[1] On 7 November, 2025, Rosalía released her fourth studio album, Lux, marking her first major release since Motomami (2022). The album became a critical and commercial success, peaking at four on the UK Albums Chart and the Billboard 200. She would later reveal that she had three notebooks with sketches and ideas for the tour, intending for it to represent the "maximalist" and "brutalist" music.^[2]

Rosalía announced the tour on 4 December, scheduling forty-two shows across seventeen countries in Europe, North America, and South America from March to September 2026. General sale tickets went on sale on 11 December 2025, with pre-sales available through Live Nation two days earlier.^[3] Pre-access to tickets was also given to special cardholders, including Banco Santander, American Express, and Banamex. The tour marks her first ever all-arena tour, making it Rosalía's biggest headlining tour to date.^[4][5]

Dancing rehearsals reportedly started in January 2026 in the Poblenou neighbourhood, in Barcelona.^{[citation needed]}

The stage design of the Lux Tour reflects its maximalist and theatrical concept, in contrast to the minimal staging of her previous tour. The production features two connected performance areas: a main stage and a secondary B-stage. The main stage is semi-circular in shape and dominated by a large white canvas curtain positioned at its center, which opens and closes throughout the show to introduce different acts. This element functions both as a visual centerpiece and as a narrative device.^[14] The main stage features a semicircular screen projecting the lyrics of the songs in the official language of the country Rosalía is performing in. She sings in eleven languages during the show, including Mandarin Chinese, Sicilian and Italian.^{[citation needed]}

The secondary stage, positioned within the audience, is arranged in the shape of a Latin cross and houses the live orchestra. The two stages are connected by a long runway that divides the standing area, allowing Rosalía to move between spaces and engage different sections of the audience. This multi-stage layout marks a departure from her previous tours and enables a combination of large-scale and more intimate performances.^{[citation needed]}

The staging incorporates a range of theatrical and religious-inspired elements, including a confessional booth, sculptural props, and a large botafumeiro—a silver incense burner suspended above the stage— which is used during the intermezzo. Additional set pieces include white stair structures and multiple screen displays integrated into the stage design.^{[citation needed]}

The Lux Tour is presented as a multi-act, theatrical performance in which the setlist unfolds through a series of visual and stylistic transformations. Its presented as a maximalist show, in contrast with the minimalism of the Motomami World Tour. It is a show "build for arenas". The show opens with an orchestral overture played by The Heritage Orchestra, which —whilst conducted by Yudania Gómez Heredia— accompanies the singer during the show, playing from Stage B, which is arranged in the shape of a Latin cross.^[15] The Lux Tour is structured in four acts plus an intermezzo, each with distinct staging, costumes, and choreography by celebrated French dance collective (La) Horde, who brought ten dancers to accompany Rosalía throughout the show.^[16] It is the first show of Rosalía to have more than one stage and to include costume changes.^[17]

"Angel" by Jimi Hendrix backs the entrance of the orchestra. A white canvas opens to Rosalía emerging from a large box, dressed as a ballet dancer. Act I starts with "Sexo, Violencia y Llantas," —the opening track on Lux— followed by "Reliquia," and "Porcelana".^[18] During the set, she maintains this ballet-inspired image, performing controlled, minimal choreography under soft lighting that evokes religious iconography. This tone becomes more overtly devotional in “Divinize”, in which the dancers adapt a 1941 performance by Ruth St. Denis. For "Mio Cristo Piange Diamanti," Rosalía covers her body with a white layer.^[19]

The atmosphere shifts abruptly at the beginning of Act II. Starting with "Berghain," Rosalía adopts a darker persona, accompanied by harsher lighting, electronic arrangements, and horned costume that resembles El Aquelarre, the 1798 painting by Francisco de Goya. Her dancers wear a ruff around their neck, historically associated with Renaissance and Elizabethan fashion.^[20] A part of the Conrad Taylor remix of "Berghain" plays at the end, similar to the Brit Awards performance.^[21] Rosalía wear a Marie Antoniette-like wig during "Saoko", which is followed by two other Motomami songs: "La Fama" and "La Combi Versace".^[22] She later performs an extended version of "De Madrugá", slightly revamping the choreography used during El Mal Querer Tour. The canvas closes again and premieres the following act.

Act III starts with an orchestral version of "El Redentor", the only song to be performed off her debut record Los Ángeles (2017). The show continues with a cover of Frankie Valli's "Can't Take My Eyes Off You", during which she invites a dozen of perviously-selected fans to join her onstage to admire her performance as she sings behind a painting frame. The cameras then follow the singer to a confessional in which a fan or celebrity tells her a story about an ex-partner, a practice that has been previously seen in shows like Sabrina Carpenter's 2022 tour. Rosalía returns onstage and dedicates "La Perla" to the person's ex-partner. During the performance, Rosalía dresses in white clothing and black evening gloves that contrast with the dancers'. Journalists saw resemblances in Eva Green's performances in Bernardo Bertolucci's The Dreamers (2003).^[23] The performance is choreographed by Dimitris Papaioannou, the artistic director of the opening and closing Ceremonies of the 2004 Summer Olympics.^[24] Rosalía interacts with the audience and drinks a glass of wine to perform "Sauvignon Blanc", performed at the piano with Llorenç Barceló.^[25] She then performs "La Yugular" to a floor camera that sees her through a glass.

An intermezzo performed alongside the orchestra at the show's B-Stage features "Dios Es Un Stalker" —sung alongside the audience—, "La Rumba del Perdón", and "Cuuuuuuuuuute". During the performance of the latter one, a botafumeiro —a giant thurible in the Santiago de Compostela Cathedral, deeply ingrained in Galician culture— swings above the stage.^[26]

Rosalía wears angel wings during Act IV, which starts with the dancy tracks "Bizcochito" and "Despechá". She goes on to perform the LP and CD-exclusive tracks "Novia Robot" and "Focu 'Ranni", running around the stage. During the end of "Focu 'Ranni", the singer climbs a stair, extends her arms and then falls backwards off the top of the structure. The canvas closes again to later reveal the encore, in which Rosalía sings "Magnolias" in a more stripped-back and reflective manner. She dissapears into dust and heaven lights and leaves the stage.

This set list is from the 15 April 2026, concert in Barcelona, Spain.^[27] It is not intended to represent all concerts for the tour.
