The band’s Get Back Tour will play the same towns, cities and historic venues the original Fab Four rocked in the 1960s. The Mersey Beatles have appeared on stage at Liverpool’s legendary Cavern Club more than 600 times and have been playing to sell-out theatres around the world for almost 20 years. They brilliantly exude the inner and outer spirit of the original Fab Four, from the costumes, the instruments and, of course, the unmistakable live sound from The Cavern Club, Beatlemania to Sgt Pepper and beyond. This all-new multi-media show will be a hit-packed celebration – from “Love Me Do” to “Let It Be” – of the most popular band the world has ever seen. 8pm.
