Rock Meets Orchestra

Rock meets Classic combines legendary rock musicians with a large symphony orchestra: the stars sing their world hits, accompanied by the RmC Band and the RmC Symphony Orchestra. The result is a “magnificent, unique live spectacle” that has made the format one of Germany's most successful crossover series for decades.

The Farewell Tour

2026 is the end: Promoter Manfred Hertlein has announced that this is the last Rock meets Classic tour. The reason: “The great era of Classic Rock is coming to an end” – the rock legends are getting older, and it will be difficult to maintain the show's high standard in the future. The Farewell Tour includes the seven most successful Rock meets Classic cities and starts on April 7th, 2026, in Frankfurt.

The Farewell Tour Line-up

Confirmed artists include Joey Tempest (Europe) with “The Final Countdown,” “Carrie,” and “Rock The Night,” Michael Schenker (formerly Scorpions and UFO) with “Doctor Doctor” and “Lights Out” (vocals: Roberto Dimitri Liapakis), plus Tarja Turunen (ex-Nightwish), Eric Martin (Mr. Big), Ronnie Atkins (Pretty Maids), and Robert Hart (Manfred Mann's Earth Band).

Location in Regensburg

The das Stadtwerk.Donau-Arena on Walhalla-Allee is Regensburg's largest event hall, located in the Bavarian city on the Danube. As one of the seven tour cities, Regensburg is a firm part of the farewell tour.
