Queenie, with their project QUEEN RELIVED Philharmonic, will return to Prague’s O2 arena on May 16, 2025, with their most ambitious concert yet.

After months of careful planning, the phenomenal band Queenie returns to Prague’s O₂ arena with the unique project QUEEN RELIVED Philharmonic, promising an unforgettable and authentic experience. This time, they will be joined by the prestigious Janáčkova filharmonie Ostrava, blending rock rhythms with the grandeur of classical music.

This grand concert, marking the sixth QUEEN RELIVED performance at the O₂ arena, will bring a new dimension to the rock classics of the legendary Queen. Since their inception 18 years ago, Queenie has become synonymous with the precise recreation of Freddie Mercury’s music and his band. They have performed over 1,400 concerts in 25 countries, appeared at Queen Elizabeth II’s official birthday celebration, and Michael Kluch was nominated for the Thalia Award for his role in the musical “Freddie.”

“When we talk about an orchestra, we don’t just mean a few strings and flutes. We’re talking about a full-fledged symphonic orchestra consisting of dozens of musicians, each a master of their craft. The O₂ arena is a place where history meets the future. We want to exceed expectations and leave behind a memory that will last,” says frontman Michael Kluch.

Under the direction of experienced conductor Jan Kučera, the Janáček Philharmonic Ostrava will bring new layers and depth to the performance. Arranger Jan Lstibůrek, working in tandem with the band, has created new orchestral arrangements that preserve the spirit of the original songs while elevating them to new artistic heights.

From the opening notes of “Bohemian Rhapsody” resonating through the O₂ arena accompanied by dozens of strings and winds, to “We Will Rock You,” immersing the audience with a fascinating blend of drums alongside the deep tones of bassoons and double basses, the choreography and light show have once again been designed to harmonize with the emotions and dynamics of the music.

This exceptional concert pushes the boundaries of the tribute genre and celebrates musical innovation, connecting fans of all generations and cultures.

Get ready for a show that will take you on an unforgettable musical odyssey, one that will resonate in your hearts long after the final note has been played.
