While in 2024, the SCORPIONS celebrated worldwide— including 3 concerts in France in Nancy, Vienna, and Carcassonne—the 40th anniversary of "Love at First Sting," their legendary album featuring the intergenerational anthems "Still Loving You" and "Rock You Like a Hurricane," in 2025, the illustrious German band will celebrate its 60th career anniversary (!!!) with a new series of concerts in France, which will include a stop in Paris at the Accor Arena on June 24, 2025, a venue the band holds dear since they were the first rock artist to inaugurate it, on February 29, 1984, when the venue was still called the Palais Omnisport de Paris Bercy.
Named "Coming Home," the festivities for this 60th anniversary have already begun in Hanover, the hometown of SCORPIONS, and will continue through a new show throughout 2025, including a residency in Las Vegas in March and, in addition to this Paris date, a performance at the Nîmes Festival on July 24, 2025.
