by | Jan 30, 2025

For the 24th edition of the Teenage Cancer Trust series of concerts at the Royal Albert Hall, The Who, Frank Carter and the Sex Pistols, Micky Flanagan, GK Barry, The Corrs and James Arthur all headline the week-long celebration of life and raising of vital funds for a tremendous charity.

1 in 2 of us will get cancer in our lifetime. Cancer does not discriminate. It doesn’t care about your background or, unfortunately, your age. The tragedy is that every year, thousands of children and young people are diagnosed with cancer, robbing them of the beauty of childhood and adolescence. You only get one chance at being young, and those years will shape the person you become. Teenage Cancer Trust ensures that young people with cancer get the sensitive, individual care and support they need at this unique and critical life stage.

25 years ago, Teenage Cancer Trust held its first concert at the Royal Albert Hall and over the past quarter of a century, thanks to its ambassador and curator Roger Daltrey, has been one of the highlights of the British music calendar.

Her Saving Grace podcast is regularly at the top of the UK Podcast charts and from September 2025 she’ll be appearing at venues across the UK as part of her Jungle Fever Tour.

This year’s edition of the Teenage Cancer Trust at Royal Albert Hall starts on the 24th March where ex-Gallows frontman, Frank Carter joins Paul Cook, Steve Jones, Glen Matlock of the Sex Pistols in a not-to-be-missed show. Carter first joined forces with Matlock, Cook and Jones to play Sex Pistols’ seminal LP Never Mind The Bollocks in its entirety to raise money for West London’s Bush Hall. They played 3 shows at the Shepherd’s Bush venue in August of last year and due to overwhelming demand before going on to announce an additional run of shows in September 2024, all of which sold out. This one is sure to be in extreme demand.

In what will undoubtedly be an incredible night of live comedy, one of the biggest names in UK comedy in the last 20 years, Micky Flanagan hosts a night of comedy on Tuesday 25th March. With special guests still to be announced, if ever you needed an excuse to go “out out,” this will be a night to remember.

In the week of the release of his sixth studio album, PISCES, singer-Songwriter James Arthur will headline . Having been over a decade since Arthur won The X Factor, the multi-Brit nominated Say You Won’t Let Go and Impossible singer will bring his arena sized emotive ballads to the hall on Wednesday 26th March.

Friday welcomes celebrated Irish group The Corrs. Having supported Shania Twain at BST Hyde Park last year and garnering critical acclaim for Talk On Corners arena tour in 2024, the Brit Award winning and GRAMMY®-nominated siblings will sure to have fans dancing in the aisles to their nostalgic hits What Can I Do, Runaway and Breathless.
