No Angels concert chronology |
Still In Love With You – Summer 2025 is a festival tour by German pop band No Angels, launched in support of their 25th anniversary.[1] Their first set of live shows since their 2002 Celebration Tour in support of their 2021 studio album 20, it began on 7 June 2025 at the Kulturzelt in Wolfhagen, Germany and is expected to conclude on 10 October 2025 at the Nachteulen Festival in Sursee, Switzerland.[2]
Background
In January 2021, after more than ten years without performing together, former No Angels members Nadja Benaissa, Lucy Diakovska, Sandy Mölling and Jessica Wahls reunited as group to release a new version of their debut single "Daylight in Your Eyes" to commemorate with the 2001 release of the song,[3] followed by 20, their first full-length album release since 2009, with plans to expand the anniversary celebrations.[4] Released to strong streaming numbers and a revived interest from the media and their fan base,[5] the album debuted at number one on the German Albums Chart, becoming No Angels' first chart topper in nearly two decades, and reached the top ten in Austria and Switzerland.[6] In June 2022, the band kicked off their Celebration Tour at the Kindl-Bühne Wuhlheide. Continued in September 2022, the tour compromised ten concerts throughout Germany and concluded on 8 October 2022.[7][8]
Initially uncertain about their future as a recording group,[9] the band assured they would keep performing together and in 2023, No Angels reunited for several festival concerts and one-off events.[9][10] In the summer of 2024, contrary to previous statements in which the band had expressed that they could not envision releasing new material, they began recording a new studio album, set to be released in fall 2025.[11][12][13] With their 25th anniversary on the horizon, the group revealed in October 2024 that the album would be preceded by Still in Love with You – Summer 2025, a festival tour in the summer of 2025.[14] Their first set of live shows since the Celebration Tour, its initial schedule consisted of six shows.[1] Further dates were announced in the following months, including performances in Switzerland and Austria, where concerts had either been cancelled or scheduled in 2022.[15]
Critical reception
Austrian public service broadcaster ORF praised the 21 June 2025 show in Vienna, writing: "No Angels proved to be a real crowd-puller [...] Surprisingly, they kicked off their set with their mega-hit "Daylight in Your Eyes." Anyone who thought the energy would fizzle out after such an explosive start was quickly proven wrong [...] The fans stayed fully engaged throughout the hour-long concert — whether it was the heartfelt ballad "All Cried Out," the Mediterranean-flavored "Still in Love With You," or their cover of the Eurythmics classic "There Must Be an Angel." By the time the final song, "Rivers of Joy," rolled around, even those in the very back rows — hundreds of meters from the glitter-pants-clad quartet — were clapping along. The powerhouse vocals served as a strong reminder of why they’ve sold five million albums.[16] Kronen Zeitung commented on the same show: "During the performance by No Angels many felt transported back to the 2000s. The four familiar faces from the casting show era delivered their pop hits and proved that they've still got it."[17] Lina Paulitsch from Austrian news magazine Falter found that the band was the "highlight of this year's Donauinselfest." She further wrote: "It was something all generations could agree on: in the audience, babies swayed alongside teenagers and their mothers and fathers. With No Angels looking just as they did back then, the crowd was taken on a brief journey back in time — to the innocent year of 2002."[18]
Marcel Schwamborn, writing for Cologne newspaper Express, commented on the 28 June 2025 show: "No Angels really stole the show during their performance at Fühlinger See. The crowd celebrated the girl group with great enthusiasm."[19] Stadt Spiegel editor Frank Zeising wrote about the same concert: "With powerful female energy, a strong stage presence, and their biggest hits, No Angels thrilled the audience. Emotions, nostalgia, and pure pop energy combined into an unforgettable performance that proved: they’re back – and stronger than ever."[20]
