Many fans recalled the band’s previous Halloween shows, calling them “amazing!🤩,” with another confirming the sentiment, “They were in NY last Halloween, what an amazing show! I will miss seeing them this Halloween! 🎃”
Someone else echoed, “Oooh… Manchester…. Fasten your seatbelts, you’re in for a great ride!!! I was at the NYC show and I still can’t believe how magical it was!!!!! 🔥”
What started as a one-night-only show in 2022 at the Wynn Theatre in Las Vegas has since become a highly anticipated annual event, later immortalized by the group’s 16th album, Danse Macabre.
The evening spans the band’s biggest hits and classics, along with some darkly reimagined rare tracks, and will mark the first Halloween event in the UK following the sold-out festivities in Madison Square Garden last fall.
Frontman and lead vocalist Simon Le Bon teased, per NME: “I’m so excited to be coming to Manchester for this special Halloween concert. In fact, I’m thrilled — and, frankly, a little terrified!”
Tickets will go on sale on Friday, June 27, at 10 am BST, with pre-sale options available starting this Wednesday. Get more info here.
Summer’s been busy for Le Bon, keyboardist Nick Rhodes, John Taylor and Roger Taylor as they’ve been performing shows across Europe, following a special appearance at the 75th annual Sanremo Music Festival, 40 years after the band’s debut there in 1985.
