Rosalía’s Lux Tour Kickoff: Here’s the Full Setlist

On Monday night (March 16), Rosalía launched her Lux Tour in spectacular fashion at the LDLC Arena in Lyon, France, delivering a meticulously staged, four-act performance across one hour and forty minutes that turned a pop concert into something closer to grand opera — and confirmed her status as one of the most ambitious live performers working today.

The 33-year-old Barcelona native treated the 13,700-strong crowd — which included a large Spanish-speaking contingent — to a setlist drawing heavily from her latest album Lux while weaving in fan-favorite tracks from 2022’s breakout Motomami. In a touching gesture for the French audience, every lyric was translated and projected in French above the stage in real time.

The evening was structured in four acts plus an intermezzo, each with distinct staging, costumes, and choreography by celebrated French dance collective (La) Horde, who brought ten dancers to accompany Rosalía throughout the show. The opening moments set the tone: a live classical orchestra entered to Jimi Hendrix’s “Angel,” a painting-like tableau split open to reveal a sun-drenched set of draped staircases, and Rosalía herself emerged from a crate like a living artwork — poised on a pedestal in a white leotard and pink tutu, evoking Degas’s iconic ballerina sculpture. She danced on pointe.

Religious and art-historical imagery permeated the show, from a nun’s white headdress to a giant swinging censer to a confessional skit introducing “La Perla.” The setlist balanced intimate moments — a luminous “Sauvignon Blanc” performed on a white piano while golden rain fell — with explosive crowd-movers like “BIZCOCHITO” and “DESPECHÁ.” The second act’s rendition of “Berghain,” featuring recorded contributions from Björk and Yves Tumor, drew a particularly thunderous response that left the arena shaking during a techno-driven finale.

Perhaps the most unexpected inclusion was a surprise cover song slotted into Act III — a slot that may rotate throughout the tour — and a rendition of Gloria Gaynor’s disco version of “Can’t Take My Eyes Off You” that saw Rosalía frame herself inside a gilded picture frame like a living Mona Lisa.

The show closed with the devastating “Magnolias,” the final track from Lux, performed alone on a bare stage before Rosalía vanished in a single beam of light. The arena erupted into a prolonged standing ovation directed at the orchestra conductor and musicians — an ending befitting a night that felt more like an event at the Opéra de Lyon than a pop concert.
