After 2 amazing sell out shows during Beatles Fest Tenbury 23 - the Mersey Beatles will return to the Regal on Saturday 15 June 2024!

This show will sell out fast so grab tickets while you can!

The Mersey Beatles have been rocking sold-out audiences around the globe since 1999 with their truly authentic and widely-acclaimed celebration of the greatest band of all time.

The band – who clocked up more than 600 appearances in a 10-year residency at Liverpool’s legendary Cavern Club – brilliantly exude the inner and outer spirit of the original Fab Four.

And fans and plaudits include John Lennon’s own family.

Every Mersey Beatles concert is a hit-packed celebration from the ‘Mop Top’ hits of Beatlemania, through the psychedelic creativity of Sgt Pepper to the melodic wonder of the Fab Four’s later work such as ‘The White Album’ and Abbey Road.

At a glittering party in 18th-century Paris, the poet Andréa Chenier delivers an impassioned denunciation of Louis XVI. Five years later, the Revolution has given way to the Terror, transforming the power balance between Chénier, his beloved Maddalena, and Gérard, the man who could destroy him...

Jonas Kaufmann headlines David McVicar’s spectacular staging, under the baton of long-time collaborator Antonio Pappano – who conducts Giordano’s epic historical drama of revolution and forbidden love in his last production as Music Director of The Royal Opera.
