Rosalía opened her Lux world tour on March 16, 2026, at the sold-out LDLC Arena in Lyon, France, performing a 25-song set across four acts for 13,500–16,000 fans. The nearly two-hour show featured intricate choreography by (LA)HORDE, ballet-inspired visuals, a live Heritage orchestra of around 30 musicians, dramatic staging, and tracks from her November 2025 album Lux—her first tour in four years—alongside hits from Motomami and earlier releases, but no songs from El Mal Querer.

The 56–57-date tour across 17 countries, announced in December 2025, reimagines Rosalía's fourth studio album Lux, written in 13 languages with collaborations including Björk, Yves Tumor, and Yahritza Y Su Esencia. Shifting from the reggaeton of her 2022 album Motomami, the production included a semicircular stage with illuminated bulbs, a Latin cross-shaped orchestra pit for strings, winds, and percussion, ballet points, pirouettes, and persona transformations (beata, raver, muse, angel).

Rosalía emerged from a large box onstage in a pink tutu and ballet slippers as a motionless dancer, opening with “Sexo, Violencia y Llantas.” Act Two highlighted “Berghain,” performed amid dancers and closing with a Conrad Taylor techno remix debuted at the BRIT Awards. Act Three's “La Perla” featured a confessional setup with an audience member and dancers creating a metronome illusion via black-and-white gloves while lifting her. Non-Lux hits included “Saoko,” “La Fama,” “Despechá,” “La Noche de Anoche,” “Bizcochito,” and a cover of Frankie Valli’s “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You.” The set closed with “Magnolias.”

Upcoming shows include Paris on March 18, four sold-out dates in Madrid (March 30–April 4), four in Barcelona (April 13–18), further European stops, North America starting in Miami on June 4, and Latin America ending in Puerto Rico.
