One unforgettable night.
Tickets will be available to purchase from 3pm on the 7 November 2025.
Since 2017, Money for Nothin has been wowing audiences with their stunningly authentic tribute to Dire Straits. Led by the incredibly talented Terry McMahon, whose guitar work and vocals channel Mark Knopfler with eerie precision, this band delivers a note-perfect recreation of Dire Straits’ biggest hits. Expect to hear classics like Sultans of Swing, Romeo and Juliet, Walk of Life, Tunnel of Love, and of course Money for Nothing—plus some hidden gems for the true fans.
Then, it’s time to step into the world of punk, pop, and pure attitude with Blondie in the Flesh – The Ultimate Blondie Experience. From the moment Debbie Harry and Blondie burst out of the New York punk scene in the late 1970s, their sound, style, and swagger redefined what a band could be. Fusing punk’s edge with pop’s hooks, disco’s groove, reggae’s sway, and even the early pulse of hip-hop, Blondie became one of the most genre-defying and influential acts in music history. With iconic hits like Heart of Glass, Call Me, Atomic, The Tide Is High, Rapture, and One Way or Another, they sold over 40 million records and left an indelible mark on pop culture.
Fronted by the incredible Chrissy Burke, a powerhouse vocalist who channels Debbie Harry’s charisma, vocal style, and iconic fashion sense, Blondie in the Flesh delivers an electrifying live performance that’s as close as you can get to seeing Blondie in their prime. Every beat, bassline, and riff is played with precision and passion—capturing the band’s unique blend of new wave, punk, pop, and dance-rock with stunning authenticity.
Don’t miss this unforgettable double bill of rock royalty—Dire Straits and Blondie—together on one stage for a night of legendary music, timeless hits, and unstoppable energy.
