Billie Eilish inspires 36,000 fans with spectacular Cologne concerts!

Willy-Brandt-Platz 3, 50679 Köln, Deutschland - On May 30, 2025, Billie Eilish gave her second concert in the sold-out Lanxess Arena in Cologne. This double show, which is part of her tour "Hit Me Hard and Soft: The Tour", attracted a total of 36,000 fans on both evenings, with each concert in front of 18,000 spectators taking place. During the event, Eilish interacted intensively with her audience and addressed feelings of lost and the changes in life in her songs.

The show started spectacularly with a white, pulsating cage that was withdrawn before Eilish appeared on a floating platform. Dressed in a blue jersey with the logo of "Korn" and red XXL training pants, she later switched to a baseball cap. The first song of the night was "Chihiro", inspired by the heroine of the same name from a studio ghibli film.

stage presence and fan interaction

In an impressive stage presence, Eilish danced under lane lights and played a variety of hits, including "Lunch", "NDA" and "Therefore I Am". Their band, consisting of four musicians and two background singers, gave the performance an organic sound. The audience was particularly enthusiastic and sang actively with songs such as "Wildflower" and "When the Party’s Over".

An emotional highlight of the concert was the performance of her Oscar-winning song "What was what I Made for?" From the film "Barbie". Eilish completed the set with "Happier Than Ever" and "Birds of a Feather", promising to keep her fans free before leaving the stage.

arrival and organization

For the concerts, the arena recommended that you spend little time before the event at the Venue, although a waiting area opened at 12:00 p.m. Admission for the concert started at 5:30 p.m., the official show started at 8:00 p.m. Many fans had been waiting in front of the arena since the beginning of the week, and you could expect longer queues.

The journey to the Lanxess Arena, which can be easily reached via tram lines 1, 3, 4 and 9 and various bus lines, was not a big problem for the fans. Arrival by car was also easier by numerous parking facilities in the area. Another important point: concert tickets were officially sold out, but remaining tickets could be available from platforms such as Eventim or Ticketmaster - but the purchase via dubious third -party providers was advised.

Overall, Billie Eilish consolidated with these concerts in Cologne their status as one of the most influential artists of modern music and left lasting impressions with their fans.
