The vocal reincarnation of legendary Queen frontman Freddie Mercury has a name: Marc Martel. One of the most spectacular Queen Tribute Shows at O2 universum
The vocal reincarnation of legendary Queen frontman Freddie Mercury has a name: Marc Martel. Not only does he possess one of the most extraordinary voices of our time, but he also brings back what seemed lost forever – the magic of a Queen concert. One Vision of Queen is a deep homage to Freddie Mercury’s career and creativity, and has thrilled a vast global fan community for nearly 15 years.
This acclaimed live show has become a fixture in the international tribute scene and will embark on another major European tour in 2027, stopping in selected cities where Marc Martel and his band have regularly sold out venues and earned standing ovations. The Prague concert will take place on February 23, 2027 at O2 universum.
What makes this show so special, beyond Martel’s qualities as a singer and entertainer, is the experience itself. Within seconds of the first chords, energy surges through the hall. This isn’t bombast, pretence or imitation – it’s honest, finely crafted rock music played by a top-tier band radiating passion. The clear, powerful sound and driving rhythm fill the space with an electric atmosphere. Just a few minutes are enough to get the audience on their feet, celebrating the songs of one of the greatest rock bands of all time. And in the quiet moments – when Martel sits at the piano and performs ballads like “Love of My Life” or “Who Wants to Live Forever” – the hall falls silent and the magic of the evening can be felt in every corner.
The Canadian-born singer and entertainer, now living in Nashville, has been touring Europe and North America with One Vision of Queen since 2020 with great success. He is undoubtedly one of the best and most sought-after interpreters of the rock legend, touching audiences from the first minute to the last with Queen classics like “Bohemian Rhapsody”, “Somebody to Love” and anthems like “We Are the Champions”. Every performance is a testament to musical expertise and precision, combined with heart and passion – resulting in a thrilling live experience that brings generations together.
It’s no accident we return to One Vision of Queen year after year. It’s proof of how timeless and powerful music can be. And it’s no surprise that the phenomenon of Marc Martel fascinates off stage too – he lent his voice to the Oscar-winning biopic “Bohemian Rhapsody” and is a popular guest on top national and international TV shows like Ellen DeGeneres, American Idol and the Giovanni Zarrella Show. His YouTube channel has over 1.4 million subscribers and his videos have more than 250 million views.
While capturing the spirit of Freddie Mercury with the greatest artistic authenticity is supremely important to Marc Martel, he always emphasizes how vital it is to be himself – as a person and as an artist. Before Queen drummer Roger Taylor discovered him in 2011, Martel had already been a professional stage musician with his own band for many years. “I think my voice is enough to remind people of Freddie. I love to be myself – especially on stage,” says Marc Martel, master of the fine art of balancing homage with individuality.
