Get ready to Rock like a hurricane!!

The legendary Rock band SCORPIONS rock into Cyprus iconic Rock band are celebrating the release of their new studio album, as part of their world tour, for a unique show at Tsirion Stadium in Limassol on 12 July. It’s their third visit to the island and I feel it’s going to be their best show here to date. The ROCK BELIEVER as well as the 50th anniversary of their spectacular debut which led to their international success. The number one rock band are classed as one of the most successful commercial Rock bands stretching over decades and have sold over 120 million records worldwide with a string of great hits including Rock You Like a Hurricane, Still Loving You, Holiday, Send Me an Angel and the highly acclaimed, Wind of Change and many more. This highly anticipated concert by the German Rockers, has been well received with enthusiasm and excitement resulting in high demand and fast selling tickets. This is one of the biggest concerts since the start of the Pandemic, and we must thank Moonlight Show Productions for always bringing such highly recognised bands to the island. Opening the show, is the much-loved local band, Minus One performing original songs from their album.
