Long overdue, but I finally got the chance to see one of the greatest entertainers of all time - Robbie f*cking Williams, as he proudly introduces himself! On August 1st, I experienced Robbie Williams live in Kaunas 2025 at Darius and Girenas Stadium during his Britpop Tour Live. We watched the show from the front row, and… did Robbie actually see me, sing to me, and hold my hand? Well - keep reading to find out!
Tickets for Robbie Williams Britpop Tour 2025 in Kaunas
During the presale, I initially bought two seated tickets on the first floor for €135 each. But later, my friend (who also wanted to go) suggested we switch to fan zone tickets - and after watching Better Man, the Robbie Williams biopic, I didn’t need much convincing. We got our fan zone tickets for €150 each, and honestly, it was the best decision. Being in the fan zone made this concert so much more special.
The Venue – Darius and Girenas Stadium
The concert took place at Darius and Girenas Stadium in Kaunas. I actually have a full blog post dedicated to this compact but convenient venue, with all the tips you'll need if you're planning to attend an event there.
One thing I love about it? You can easily walk there from the city center - which means I could literally walk from my home. As the concert was on a Friday, thousands of people strolled back downtown after the show. Bars and restaurants were buzzing with post-concert energy. I love that vibe when the party just keeps going!
Concert Day Timeline
Here’s how our evening looked:
4:15 PM – Arrived at the venue
5:00 PM – Doors opened
7:50 PM – Opening act: The Lottery Winners
9:15 PM – Robbie Williams took the stage
11:20 PM – Show ended
Queuing Experience at Darius and Girenas Stadium
Our goal was to get to the barricade, and knowing how things usually go in Lithuania, we figured arriving one hour before doors would be enough - especially since the weather wasn’t great (there had just been quite a storm).
When we arrived, we did run into a bit of queue drama: unofficial fan numbering, some shouting as we headed to the fan zone, and a little general chaos. I definitely have some thoughts about this side of concert/fan culture, so I’m saving the full story for a separate post coming soon.
That said, we still managed to secure the barricade and found a great spot. Since people here typically don’t show up super early, we could move around easily - grab drinks, use the bathroom - without losing our place. We also met quite a few people along the way, so overall, the waiting experience was relaxed and really fun!
Opening Act: The Lottery Winners
The opening act was The Lottery Winners, an indie pop band from the UK led by frontman Thomas Rylance. They did an amazing job warming up the crowd. Thomas even had a pre-recorded speech in Lithuanian on his phone, which was hilarious. His witty humor was the perfect opener.
At one point, he even came down to the crowd and asked me how to say “F*ck off” in Lithuanian. I totally blanked (can you blame me?), but it was such a funny moment. I had already seen them last year when they opened for Nickelback in Cologne, and they were great then too.
Robbie F*cking Williams – Lithuania Welcomes Britpop Star!
Just after 9 PM, the King of Entertainment (as he calls himself) appeared on stage with the opening song Rocket, kicking off two hours of pure entertainment. Right after, he did a head-down dive from the bridge - clearly a nod to his Escapology era and the iconic 2003 Knebworth performance. Then came Let Me Entertain You with that unforgettable intro: “Allow me to reintroduce myself. My name is Robbie F*cking Williams. This is my band. This is my a**. Are you f*cking with meee?!” And the crowd went wild as we witnessed true showmanship in action.
The show was packed with hits: Monsoon (keep reading to find out what happened during this one 👀), Rock DJ, The Road to Mandalay, Supreme, and of course the encore with Feel and Angels - which are truly songs you must hear live. I was a little sad he skipped Come Undone and only played a short version of Candy, but hey, you can’t have it all.
There was also a cool segment where he introduced his band, and each member played a snippet of a different song - Robbie sang along to Bohemian Rhapsody, Crazy in Love, Sweet Child O' Mine (which was very symbolic, as Guns N’ Roses had played the same stadium in Kaunas just a few weeks earlier, you can read more about it here), and more. Fun fact: Did you know Robbie’s drummer, Karl Brazil, is also James Blunt’s drummer?
There were also some AI videos of Robbie talking to his younger self. I know some people found it cringey, but I wasn’t too bothered by it. (Also - keep reading to hear what Robbie himself thinks about being cringe, hahah.)
Humor & Honesty
Robbie brought his classic sense of humor - cracking jokes, telling stories from his Take That days, and delivering his now-famous speech about embracing your cringe.
At one point, he joked about having a C-stage on this tour because Coldplay has one every night - so he told his manager, “I want a C-stage too.” He also said he wanted those LED wristbands Coldplay uses, but his manager told him it would add €10 per ticket and cost him extra. His response? “F*** them - they can use their phones. It's cheaper.” Classic Robbie.
He also got emotional, opening up about his struggles with anxiety, his family, and his parents’ illnesses - his mother has dementia, and his father has Parkinson’s, which is why he can no longer join Robbie on stage for “My Way” as he used to. Even if parts of the speech were scripted, they felt genuine and helped the audience connect with him more deeply.
And yes, let’s not forget the fan interactions! He came down to the crowd several times, touched hands, gave high fives (including mine - more on that in a second!), and even picked a girl from the crowd to sing She’s the One to. I love moments like that, and I really wish more artists would do the same.
Monsoon… and My Lucky Moment
As we were in the first row, I expected there was a high chance of a high five - but what I didn’t expect was…
That Robbie would see me, give me a look like “I’m coming to you, okay?”, then basically sing to me, grab my hand, and stand right in front of me at the barricade. I mean… whaaaat?! I think I blacked out a bit - I really, really didn’t expect it, and it was just the third song. Damn, what a moment.
I don’t want to show my narcissistic side too much, but… I think I have a talent for attracting attention. First Dan Reynolds from Imagine Dragons, and now Robbie Williams - can’t complain, ahaha.
Later during the concert, he came to our side again and stood in front of us - this time with his back to us, kind of giving us the chance to hug him. Three words: I-CO-NIC.
Final Thoughts
I can’t believe that, as for such a self-proclaimed concert enthusiast, it took me this long to see Robbie Williams live for the first time - especially considering he’s been to Lithuania four times! (In my defense, I was living in Turkey and Germany when he came before…)
Still - shame on me, but better late than never.
Robbie truly lives up to his title as the King of Entertainment. He knows how to captivate a crowd, deliver great showmanship, and keep us entertained for two straight hours. You’d never guess he struggles with anxiety - he seems so natural, like he was born to be on stage. His self-deprecating humor, openness, storytelling, and fan interactions were all incredible.
So I’ll end this as I always do: if you ever get the chance to see Robbie Williams live - DO IT. There are still some dates left on this tour, and you can be sure that Robbie will give his all to entertain you.
