The Pet Shop Boys’ *DREAMWORLD – THE GREATEST HITS LIVE* will take the stage at Unity Arena on August 20, 2026

The Pet Shop Boys’ very first greatest hits tour,*Dreamworld: The Greatest Hits Live*, which is now entering its fifth year, kicked off in Milan in May 2022 and has since headlined festivals and arenas around the world to great acclaim. In August, the iconic duo will return to Norway for the first time in four years to perform their biggest headline show ever in the country.

The Pet Shop Boys, consisting of Neil Tennant and Chris Lowe, are listed in the Guinness Book of World Records as the most successful duo in British music history. Since signing with Parlophone Records in 1985, they have had 44 singles in the UK Top 30, including 22 Top 10 hits and four number-one hits.

To date, the Pet Shop Boys have performed in 63 countries for audiences numbering in the millions. They have headlined some of the world’s largest festivals and most prestigious venues, including Roskilde Festival, Glastonbury Festival, Corona Capital, Sónar Festival, Primavera Sound in Madrid, Porto, São Paulo, and Buenos Aires, Coachella, Latitude Festival, Way Out West, Madison Square Garden, the Hollywood Bowl, and Hyde Park—to name a few.

In their live shows, the Pet Shop Boys have developed a distinctive style of pop musical theater, collaborating with directors, designers, and artists such as Derek Jarman, David Alden, and David Fielding, Zaha Hadid, Sam Taylor-Wood, Es Devlin, and Tom Scutt.

As songwriters, producers, and remixers, Tennant and Lowe have collaborated with or written for a wide range of artists, including Dusty Springfield, Lady Gaga, Liza Minnelli, Blur, Madonna, David Bowie, Yoko Ono, The Killers, Girls Aloud, Paul Weller, Noel Gallagher, and Sleaford Mods.

Critics have continued to shower the duo with praise:
