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.

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.
