ELTON John will bring his outrageous Las Vegas show The Red Piano back to the Liverpool Echo Arena on Wednesday, October 28.
The newly announced Liverpool show will be the final UK performance of The Red Piano for the foreseeable future.
The show began at The Colosseum at Caesars Palace five years ago and ran there for an incredible 243 performances, in front of about one million people.
The larger-than-life set, complete with Elton’s iconic Yamaha red grand piano, has been conceptualised and designed to reflect Elton’s flamboyance alongside his peerless musicianship by acclaimed photographer and good friend of Elton, David LaChapelle.
During the shows, audiences will be treated to live performances of the phenomenal back catalogue of Elton John and Bernie Taupin, including hits such as Rocket Man, Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Candle In The Wind and Tiny Dancer.
