What to Expect from Robbie Williams in Mexico City
Expect a greatest hits night with a lot of theatre. The Britpop Tour supports his 13th studio album, Britpop, released on January 16, 2026. However, the set leans hard on the songs everyone knows. Reviews from this leg describe dancers in gold costumes, several outfit changes and pyrotechnics. One Chilean critic called it part concert, part stand up comedy.
The room is the real story here. His first full concerts in Mexico were two nights at Foro Sol in October 2006, which drew more than 100,000 people. After that he played the Autódromo Hermanos Rodríguez in 2018. Then he headlined Tecate Emblema at the same racetrack in 2023. Every one of those shows was outdoors. So this is a far smaller, louder room than any of them.
What Will Robbie Williams Play?
About twenty songs, opening with “Let Me Entertain You”. The Latin American shows so far have moved through “Rock DJ”, “Supreme”, “Strong”, “Better Man” and “Millennium”. New songs such as “Pretty Face” sit alongside them. The encore has closed on “Feel” and then “Angels” every night of this leg.
The covers are half the fun. He sings Oasis’ “Wonderwall” in a Liam Gallagher voice, then moves to “Theme From New York, New York” and “My Way”. A medley in Bogotá jumped from “Paranoid” to “Y.M.C.A.” and “Hey Jude”. He also pulls a fan from the crowd for “She’s the One”. In Lima he changed a lyric in “Supreme” to name the city, so listen for a Mexico City version.
How Long Is the Show?
Just under two hours. In Bogotá, doors opened at 6:00 PM, and The Lottery Winners opened at 7:45 PM. Then Robbie walked on at 9:00 PM. In Lima he played from 9:20 to 11:00 PM, and Santiago ran from 9:00 to 10:50 PM. No opening act has been confirmed for Mexico City yet. Still, expect a similar shape, with the last song landing close to 11:00 PM.
Where to Stay Near the Venue
Stay on Metro Line 9, because it reaches the arena with no transfers. Condesa sits on that line at Chilpancingo, which makes it the easiest base for a weeknight show. Roma Norte is a short walk from the same line at Centro Médico and keeps kitchens open late for a post show dinner. Juárez and Centro Histórico both work with one change. Also, if you want both nights, book the same hotel for the whole stretch rather than moving on Thursday. For every district, start with our guide to Where to Stay in Mexico City.

Robbie Williams Ticket Prices and Availability
Both nights are sold out. Face value ran from $1,736 MXN, roughly $96 USD, to $4,712 MXN, about $262 USD, with service charges included. Still, keep checking Ticketmaster, since it is the only official seller and any returned seats would appear there.
Concert Venue and Dates
The Palacio de los Deportes stands at Avenida Río Churubusco and Añil in Granjas México, Iztacalco, inside the Ciudad Deportiva Magdalena Mixhuca complex. It was built for the 1968 Olympics by architects including Félix Candela. Its copper covered dome spans roughly 120 metres with no internal columns, which is why locals call it the Domo de Cobre. Foro Sol and the racetrack he played in 2018 and 2023 sit right next door.
Concert Dates
- Wednesday, October 7, 2026, the original date, sold out within minutes

Start Time
- 8:00 PM is the time listed on Ticketmaster for both nights

- Expect the final song, “Angels”, close to 11:00 PM
Planning Your Visit to the Concert
Getting There
Metro Line 9 is the answer, and both Velódromo and Ciudad Deportiva stations put you within walking distance of the arena. The fare is 5 pesos. Because both shows fall on weeknights, the Metro closes at midnight. The show should end near 11:00 PM, so you have about an hour. That is enough if you leave promptly after “Angels”. Otherwise, walk a few blocks away from the arena before you order a rideshare, since pickup queues build fast.
What to Bring
You will be under a roof, but the walk in and out is not. Early October sits at the tail end of the rainy season, so pack a light rain shell. Evenings also drop to around 12°C or 54°F, which feels cold after two hours in a packed arena. In addition, bring small bills for the street vendors and a charged phone for your ride home. Travel light, because large bags slow the security line.
Concert Experience
Expect a crowd that sings every word. Reviews from Santiago noted a mostly adult audience, and he plays to it with long, funny stories between songs. The floor is standing only in Level A, while the other levels are seated. So choose based on whether you want to dance or actually see the stage production.
Eat before you go. Food options around Ciudad Deportiva thin out quickly, and the arena lines get long. Instead, have an early dinner in Condesa or Roma Norte, then take Line 9 east. After the show, the same line brings you straight back for a late drink.
