Guns N’ Roses have announced their long-awaited return to Sofia as part of their massive 2025 tour. On July 21, Vasil Levski Stadium will transform into a rock arena where fans can experience the magic of the iconic anthems by Axl Rose, Slash, and Duff McKagan. This event promises to leave its mark on Bulgaria’s musical history. Special guests for the Sofia concert will be another legendary group—Public Enemy, the band that revolutionized hip-hop with its political message, innovative sound, and uncompromising spirit.
The tour kicks off on May 23 and includes 24 dates. Guns N’ Roses will perform for the first time in Saudi Arabia, Georgia, Lithuania, and Luxembourg. In 2025, the LA legends will return to familiar stages in Bulgaria, Serbia, Turkey, Portugal, Spain, Italy, Czech Republic, Germany, the UK, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, Finland, Poland, Hungary, and Austria.
Guns N’ Roses remain the most dynamic, provocative, and iconic American rock band in history. Their 1987 album Appetite For Destruction, certified Diamond, is officially “the best-selling debut album in US history” and “the 11th best-selling album of all time in the US.” Their Not In This Lifetime… tour (2016–2019) ranks as the fourth highest-grossing concert tour of all time. In 1991, Guns N’ Roses shook the world with their double album Use Your Illusion I and Use Your Illusion II, certified seven times Platinum, which conquered the top two spots on the Billboard 200 chart upon release. With total sales exceeding 100 million copies, their catalog also includes G N’ R Lies (5x Platinum), The Spaghetti Incident? (Platinum), Greatest Hits (5x Platinum), and Chinese Democracy (Platinum).
Guns N’ Roses are undeniably one of the most listened-to rock bands in the world, with an average of 24 million monthly listeners on Spotify! Following their legendary reunion, they headlined Coachella and sold over 5 million tickets during the Not In This Lifetime… tour. Guns N’ Roses show no signs of slowing down—with new tours and surprises on the horizon, the “Nightrain” continues full speed ahead.
