Sir Elton, 76, will be at the Leeds city centre venue on Tuesday, June 6 for the latest stop on his Farewell Yellow Brick Road Tour. First announced in 2018, Sir Elton has played over 300 dates as part of the schedule of shows as the legend brings down the curtain on his glistening career.
The Leeds show comes fresh after gigs across the Pennines in Manchester. In a glowing review, our colleagues at the MEN stated: it’s a fitting goodbye to fans who have lived, breathed and grown up with Elton’s music for the last 50 years.
