Robyn / Erika De Casier – Sexistential tour live gallery and review from 3Arena, Dublin 24.06.2026

Swedish pop icon Robyn brought her Sexistential Tour to Dublin’s 3Arena for a long-awaited return to the Irish capital. Despite a surprisingly modest turnout, perhaps understandable given the number of major concerts taking place across Dublin on the same evening, those in attendance were rewarded with a performance that was both emotionally charged and irresistibly danceable.

Opening the night was Danish singer-songwriter Erika de Casier, whose understated blend of R&B and electronic pop provided the perfect warm up. Her smooth vocals and laid-back stage presence created an intimate atmosphere, easing the audience into the evening before Robyn took over.

From the moment she stepped onto the stage, Robyn commanded the room with effortless charisma. Backed by striking visuals and an energetic live production, she delivered a set that balanced fan favourites with material from her latest Sexistential era. Her trademark ability to fuse euphoric dance beats with deeply personal lyrics was on full display, creating moments of both celebration and vulnerability.

Although the arena was far from full, the smaller crowd only added to the sense of connection between artist and audience. Every chorus was met with enthusiastic singalongs, while the dancefloor atmosphere in front of the stage never let up. Robyn’s genuine interaction with the crowd made the performance feel more like a shared experience than a stadium-sized spectacle.

The production itself was slick without feeling overblown, allowing Robyn’s magnetic stage presence to remain the focal point. Her vocals were strong throughout, and her infectious energy never wavered across the set.

While the attendance may not have reflected Robyn’s influence on modern pop music, those who made the trip to the 3Arena witnessed an artist at the top of her game. It was an unforgettable evening that proved great live music isn’t measured by crowd size, but by the connection it creates.
