It is with great frustration that we must once again announce the rescheduling of our UK & Ireland tour dates. We had hoped to be in a position to play these shows in the Autumn but due to the ongoing situation with venue safety in the UK & Ireland, it’s become clear that to do so would be putting our fans in danger.

We’re now moving the tour to April & May 2021 and all of your tickets will remain valid for these new dates.

We‘re very sorry for any inconvenience caused by this but can’t wait to see and perform for you all at the new dates. 

A message from Paul,

"The Coronavirus pandemic should remind everyone, and let no-one forget, that our National Health Service is the most brilliant and significant institution in our lives. The men and women who serve us and care for us, give us hope and sacrifice for their own wellbeing, can never be thanked enough. We are just musicians, so there is little we can do but sing for you. By way of appreciation, we announce the following gig for all the frontline NHS staff. From the porters, the cleaners and the drivers, to the doctors and the nurses; thank you”.

Paul Heaton & Jacqui Abbott have announced a free concert for all NHS frontline and auxiliary staff to take place at the 9,000 capacity Nottingham Motorpoint Arena on Tuesday 13th October 2020 and the SSE Arena, Wembley on Thursay 15th October 2020.

Those eligible for tickets will be all NHS frontline staff that work within NHS hospitals across the United Kingdom including, but not limited to, doctors, nurses, support workers, porters and cleaners. Any staff that work within the hospital will be eligible for tickets.

Ticket application must only be made by the NHS member of staff who will bring their valid NHS or Primary Care Trust I.D. Card to the show, as ticket checks will be in operation. All tickets will carry the name of the person who made the booking and this must match the name that is on the NHS or Primary Care Trust I.D. card (original format, no photocopies) or admission will be refused.

Tickets will be limited to 2 per person and will be available from Tuesday 31st March at 7pm. Further details to follow.

Due to the ongoing situation across the world, and in particular the inaction by our own government, we feel we have no choice but to reschedule the forthcoming UK & Ireland tour dates immediately. The shows will now take place in October and November, with all tickets remaining valid for these new dates. We are still working on new dates for Belfast, Galway and Donegal but will announce these shows as soon as possible. 

For the London Palladium shows, if you purchased tickets for the Wednesday 29th April show then your ticket will be valid for the rescheduled Wednesday 11th November show, and if you bought tickets for the Thursday 30th April show then your tickets will be valid for the rescheduled Thursday 12th November show.

For the Hull shows, tickets for the Tuesday 21st April show will now be valid for the rescheduled Sunday 18th October show, and tickets for the Wednesday 22nd April show will now be valid for the rescheduled Monday 19th October show. 

Paul and Jacqui would like to pass on their sincere apologies for the inconvenience this may cause you all but also feel the safety of the public is paramount. We wish you good health and safety over these coming months and hope to see you all fighting fit in the Autumn.
