André Rieu Reviews 

Love the Music. But far too much chat getting into these latter programmes on TV,. We tune in to hear the Classics. Not some person rambling on about the weather, the church or cathedral how we tripped over the paving. Almost worse than the adverts. Music. Harmony..

Birmingham Sep 2026
Went for the music but was soreley misled .Does this guy think hes some sort of comedian? .Nearly every piece of music was marred by a cheesy comic slot Someone should tell him that Franz Lehar and Charlie Drake dont sit well together . Very poor and very expensive

Saw Andre Rieu in Birmingham on Saturday evening. Absolutely stunning from start to finish. A very well thought out concert, something for everyone. My husband and I could not fault a thing. Musicians, singers, background optics just fantastic. Andre was entertaining, funny and talented. We need more of this type of fun, meaningful and magical entertainment.

I took my 97year old mother to see andre rieu at Birmingham bp pulse as she has been a fan for years but never seen him live. At first the show was lovely but towards the end of the second half it went downhill & very cheesy, what on earth possessed him to reduce the band to perform songs like Sweet Caroline & delihla is beyond me, it lowered the tone of the band to a new level, however, a shout out to the pan flute player who was amazing & the best part of the night.

Last night’s performance was absolutely exceptional! From the incredible singing to André’s wonderful ability to engage the audience and get everyone singing and dancing, every moment was truly special. Such extraordinary talent and a fantastic atmosphere. It was a real joy and privilege to be part of such an unforgettable evening! 👏🎶

One of the best things I’ve seen. His audience consisting mainly of blue rinses, showed more energy and involvement, that would put the youth of today to shame. His message of world peace through music, was both heartwarming and seemingly, authentic. I would have loved to have seen more musicians and singers of colour, in his orchestra. This would have complimented his message even more. Maybe a Palestinian Soprano next time ?? X

Went to our first Rieu concert in Aberdeen. Place was really well attended. Concert was just excellent.

complete lack of empathy with this bunch of mobsters.
we booked 4 tickets as we do most years for 2 couples. our 4 tickets cost £566 and included the usual grab for service and delivery, because we booked these in June 2025 I took out refund protection insurance the concert is on 19 September 2026. last week 30 August one of the ladies in the party was taken ill and over the bank holiday was diagnosed with a brain tumour that was affecting her speech and sight. She was advised, no travelling, no noisey events and so the concert was a no no. We would continue to attend so i put in a request for a refund of 2 tickets. Firstly you cannot get hold of people our credit card statement says we paid AndreRieu.com for the tickets and they were confirmed by Andre Rieu .com on 20 June 2025. When i contacted Andre Rieu .com they said ticket sales are with Paylogic and we had to contact them, but their name appears on nothing we have recieved regarding these tickets. So i contact paylogic who say they cannot consider refund unless they know they are speaking to the primary purchaser of the tickets showing they paid paylogic [yep most people will already see the issue]. They refer to the credit card statement which as i said above shows payment to Andre Rieu.com; my view is this is a tactic to minimise refunds and it stinks. all day i have been given the slip by these people and what appears on tv and at their shows of this slick technically advanced well oiled machine would appear to be a mask of clandestine proportions and if they do not produce tomorrow then there will be much social media coverage.

Could have been a brilliant DVD but all they show is the audience with quick flicks back to the stage. Extremely annoying.

Purchased a pair of cd's, one of which was blank. Andre Rieu.com refused to accept liability or replace the dud cd.

Lovely! Waited for a long time to see him. Just pleasure to hear, see and dance and sing with orchestra. Outfits brought old Wien on stage, charm of tenors, simplicity of just being there and Andrè charisma made my eve unforgettable. It was between musical, opera and good oldies. Concept of the show gives everybody something - from waltz to opera, from sopranos to popular italian music and theatrical experience. Andrè invites talanted musicians and singers to his show and give them stage- I bet not many conductors and musicians give stage to unknown but talanted people.

Paid from expensive tickets row 3 and view was blocked on the right side with large drums.
We felt we were only watching half a show and unable to see all the orchestra.
It was very repetitive since we saw his show 10 years
Would not recommend to anyone as we feel we wasted our money being unable to see the complete stage.
Never never again.need a refund!!!!!!

Talented musicians and singers making the whole experience magical. Everyone left the arena feeling happy. I can't wait to go again

Having seen the show in the UK we thought it would be something special in his home town unfortunately we were wrong. Same old same old and you be honest it was worse. Won't be going again its an expensive rip off. The christmas markets are pathetic just low quality food stalls mostly. Save your money dont bother I wish we hadn't

I went to the Maastright 2025 Christmas consent a truly magical experience .
It was 100% better than the videos such an overwhelming experience , The trip there was so horrendous but it all melted away and if I had the money i would do it all again in a heart beat .

I watched Andre Riue's Birthday Party at the cinema. I booked the seats in advance. When I left the cinema I felt I'd been conned. The film was just a compilation of concerts spliced together.
So disappointed with Andre :(

€600 for four tickets and a 6.5-hour round trip for what turned out to be a tightly packed, industrial-scale cash grab. The so-called Christmas market was a joke: thousands of people, seating for only a few hundred, chaotic funneling everywhere.

Everything costs extra. Extortionate food and drinks. Even paying to hang up your coat. Only a handful of actual Christmas songs were performed. The chairs were brutally uncomfortable. The toilets were portable units with endless queues.

Worst of all: zero meaningful accessibility disclosure. My 70-year-old, mobility-impaired mother had to climb steep, ridiculous steps to reach her seat. It was stressful, exhausting, and completely unacceptable.

This wasn’t festive. It was premium pricing for a budget experience.
If zero stars were possible, that’s what this deserves

FAR FAR too much TALKING.
The older Andre gets, the more he like to hear the sound of his own voice... The trouble is, most people DON'T. People go mainly to hear the MUSIC by the the Andre Rieu musicians and not Andre Rieu all the time.

Just back from Maastricht. Was there 11 years ago as well. Too much repetition. Have to say I was a bit let down . Still a good show but would not go back

we visited the 2025 concert Maastricht Vrijthof, we like to call Mr Andre, Mr Repeat!!
Almost everything was the same. Nothing new.
Shame on you Andre.
Why no new songs? why no new artists?
I think the special guests, two 77 year old men are glad to come for free!
