A GALACTIC extravaganza will bring the award-winning score from the stunning Star Wars saga to the region’s arenas.

Star Wars: In Concert, featuring a full orchestra, a choir, vivid visuals and live narration from C-3PO actor Anthony Daniels, comes to Liverpool’s Echo Arena and Manchester’s MEN Arena in March.

Director and film series creator George Lucas said: “We’ve taken the key themes from the music and cut together all the images that fit with each theme, so you can really get a sense of how the music played into the images.”

The event also features an exhibit of never-before-seen Star Wars costumes, props, artefacts, production artwork and behind-the-scenes videos.

Tickets cost £30-65 and are available from the Echo Arena on 0844 800 0400 for Tuesday, March 9, and the MEN Arena on 0844 847 8000 for Monday, March 15.
