Björk concert chronology

Björk Orchestral is the upcoming eleventh concert tour by Icelandic singer and songwriter Björk. Six shows have been announced so far. The tour is set to begin on July 2, 2020 in Moscow, Russia and conclude on July 20, 2020 in Paris, France.

The tour was preceded by the announcement of Björk's performance at the Bluedot Festival, which she's going to headline on the closing night.[1] The performances were described in contrast to Cornucopia, Björk's latest concert tour, which featured an immersive show production, as they're expected to feature only the singer backed by a local orchestra. The show is set to feature orchestral arrangements of songs from Björk's career so far.[2]
