Safe to say, we’ve got some serious Jason Donovan fans in the building… and one person who needs to do their homework before the show! 😂

Think you know your Jason? Come and see the legend himself live!

With over three decades of music, multiple BRIT and MOBO Awards, an Ivor Novello Award and six Top 10 albums, Gabrielle has cemented her place as one of the UK’s most respected singer-songwriters.

🔥 And joining Gabrielle as supporting act will be DAMAGE!

After a 10-year break from releasing music, Damage returned to the spotlight in 2014 with ITV2’s The Big Reunion, followed by an extensive UK arena tour. They’ve continued to bring their classic R&B sound to stages across the country ever since.

🌍 Imagine looking down and seeing the whole world beneath you.

No borders. No roads. Just Earth – floating in the darkness of space.

Tim Peake has actually seen that view. 🚀

This September, he’ll be at King George’s Hall sharing what it really feels like to leave our planet behind – the moments that took his breath away, the realities of life in space and the stories you don't usually get to hear.

From humanity’s first journeys beyond Earth to where we might go next, including Mars. 🌌

An evening to make you look up at the night sky a little differently on the way home.
