THE LIVE SHOW
What Niall Horan concerts are like
A Niall Horan concert is warm and relaxed. He plays guitar through much of the set with a full band, moving from Slow Hands and Nice to Meet Ya to Heaven and Meltdown, and the crowd sings loudly on every chorus.
He talks and jokes between songs in a very Irish way, and there is usually a One Direction song or two that gets a huge reaction. Acoustic moments, such as This Town, bring the arena down to a quiet singalong.
Tips for the Cologne show
- One Direction fans should stay alert; a 1D song is usually slipped into the set.
- The acoustic section is quiet, so save chat for the up-tempo songs.

Getting to LANXESS arena
LANXESS arena is an indoor arena in Deutz, Cologne, with a capacity of around 20,000. Köln Messe/Deutz station is a short walk away. The listed address is Willy-Brandt-Platz, Cologne.
As an indoor arena, it is weather-proof, but bag-size limits and cloakroom queues are common, so travel light.
Travelling to Cologne for the concert
Most visitors flying in for this show land at Köln Bonn Airport (CGN). A Tuesday date usually means less competition for rooms than at the weekend, but getting home the same night after a weekday concert is hard, so staying over is the safer plan.
With a 20:00 start, the show will end late in the evening. Check the last train or bus back to where you are staying before you set off, and fly in the day before so a delayed flight does not cost you the concert.
