Kylie Minogue inspires in Berlin: Glittering concert despite empty seats

In the pulsating capital Berlin, more precisely in the Uber Arena, a very special event was on the program on July 5, 2025: Kylie Minogue entered the stage and unleashed a veritable fireworks display of colors and sounds that filled the visitors with joy. This concert marked a remarkable return, as the show originally scheduled for June 16 had to be canceled due to the pop icon's laryngitis. But despite the late start, the anticipation was huge.

The show started with a powerful start: Minogue opened the evening with “Lights Camera Action”, the lead single from her new album “Tension II”. Accompanied by an energetic live band, background vocals and an impressive troupe of dancers, it offered a spectacular experience that immediately captivated the audience. The older hits like “In Your Eyes” and “Get Outta My Way” were presented in a newly interpreted, beat-heavy and danceable version - no foot stays still!

Artistic diversity and outfit changes

Kylie Minogue, who has been musically active since the late 1980s and has explored a variety of styles, once again showed that she is a true chameleon artist. Her outfits, including a sparkly one-piece and a stunning chrome coat, left fans glistening. The queer community was well represented and ensured that the mood was noticeably positive despite a noticeable gap in the audience due to empty seats.

Another emotional highlight was the acoustic version of “Say Something,” which she performed soulfully with a guitar. The age mix of the audience was impressive; Both long-time fans and younger visitors cheered on the star. She finally ended the concert with spirit and enthusiasm with “Can’t Get You Out of My Head”, “All the Lovers” and a fantastic encore of “Padam Padam”, which recently brought her a lot of attention and streams.

An unforgettable evening

The closing “Love at First Sight” hit the heart – 23 years after its first release, it was still a hit. The evening left those present with a positive feeling and a good atmosphere that will certainly be remembered. Kylie's return to the stage was more than just a concert, it was an experience that highlighted the fascination with live music. A fact that research on concert attendance has repeatedly proven: Live performances offer an immersive and communal experience that you cannot experience with digital streams (cf. the studies by the Max Planck Society).

Whether it’s “Padam Padam” or new beats – Kylie Minogue remains an unmistakable figure in the music scene. Anyone who has the opportunity to experience their performances should not miss it - because it is an experience that will certainly last for a long time.
