Neil Young Expected to Perform in Groningen This Summer
The leaked tour schedule suggests a Stadspark concert on July 1.
Legendary singer-songwriter Neil Young may be coming to Groningen this summer for a concert at the Stadspark on July 1, 2025. According to a leaked tour schedule from Young’s Love Earth World Tour, the 79-year-old Canadian icon will perform in the city as the only Dutch stop on his European tour.
Leaked Information Sparks Excitement
Rumours about Young’s visit to Groningen started after a tour schedule surfaced online, appearing to be sent from a fan newsletter. The schedule listed Groningen between Brussels (June 30) and Berlin (July 3). Additionally, a Google-indexed event page briefly showed the concert date, but it was quickly taken offline. The website Festileaks, known for tracking festival and concert news, also reported on the potential show.
Although SPOT Groningen, the local event organizer, has not confirmed the concert, fans are eagerly awaiting the official announcement on February 24 when Young's tour details are set to be revealed.
Local Fans Ecstatic About Possible Concert
The news has caused a stir among Neil Young fans in Groningen and beyond, with many calling it a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity. Longtime fan and musician Gerry Wolthof, often referred to as the 'Groningen Neil Young', is particularly thrilled:
"I've seen him many times in the Netherlands, but never in Groningen. If this is true, it’s incredible!"
At 79, Young remains a touring force, but his advancing age means fans cherish every opportunity to see him live.
What’s Next?
With anticipation building, fans will have to wait until Monday, February 24, when Young’s Love Earth World Tour is officially announced. If the Stadspark concert is confirmed, it will mark a historic moment for Groningen as it hosts one of rock’s greatest living legends.
Stay tuned for further updates as the announcement date approaches.
