"Rocketman" Elton John announces UK concert date for 2012

Wednesday, 28 September 2011
Sir Elton John has announced that he will be returning to the UK stage in June 2012, to play a new venue at a new destination: Chesterfield Football Club in Derbyshire. The concert will take place at the B2net Stadium, home of Chesterfield Football Club on Saturday the 9th of June 2012.

Elton will become the first ever artist to play the B2net Stadium. This concert will be a fully reserved concert and give thousands of fans the opportunity to sing along to Elton’s much-loved songs. Tickets for this show will go on sale Friday 30th September at 9am priced between £40 & £55 per seat; premium reserved seated tickets are also available. Book via hotline number: 0844 847 2441 or on-line: www.ticketmaster.co.uk

As one of the greatest and most successful live artists, his spectacular stage shows continue to leave the competition standing! Elton will perform over two hours of hits from an incredible back catalogue, including such classics as ‘Benny & The Jets’, ‘Crocodile Rock’ and ‘Your Song’. His most recent project opens this month in Las Vegas, when Elton returns to The Colesseum
Ceasers Palace with this brand new show the Million Dollar Piano, billed as “a gargantuan
feast of music and imagery“. Elton’s September return to the stage, will mark the beginning of a three-year residency at The Colosseum and his second as a Caesars Palace headliner.

Undoubtedly one of the biggest artists in the world, Elton John and his band will bring their
unforgettable live show to Chesterfield for one special night next summer. Elton said: “Music is a wonderful gift and I feel very privileged to be able to share this with so many people around the world. I am thrilled that at long last I can bring my show to Chesterfield, I have never had the chance to play in this town before, so I am excited to be the first performer to play at this fabulous stadium.”.

Chesterfield FC chairman Barrie Hubbard said: “This is not only a big first for Chesterfield Football Club, but is a first for the town as well. Our new B2net Stadium is really living up to its billing as North Derbyshire’s premier entertainment venue and we are absolutely delighted that Elton John has agreed to include it as part of his World tour. I can’t think of a better way to celebrate the full completion of the stadium next year, with the addition of all the community facilities, than by holding such an eye-catching event.”.

After Elton played recently, The Telegraph wrote: “Elton played and sang awesomely, with gale-force gusto. Lord knows how many times he's performed these songs, but somehow he still manages to sound as if he means every word of them.”.

We cannot wait to see Elton return to a UK stage in 2012 and we hope to see you there!
