“Wish You Were Here 50th Anniversary World Tour” will mark Brit Floyd’s biggest and most spectacular production to date, celebrating the 50th anniversary of Pink Floyd’s classic album Wish You Were Here. Widely regarded as the world's greatest rock tribute experience, this show covers some of the bands most beloved songs - complete with a stunning laser and light show, iconic circular screen, inflatables and theatrics. Wish You Were Here features four of the Pink Floyd’s most loved songs, “Shine On You Crazy Diamond,” “Welcome To The Machine,” “Have A Cigar” and, of course, the titular track.
Taking to the stage to perform - note for note, powerful renditions of all these classic Pink Floyd tracks - are long time guitarist/lead vocalist and musical director Damian Darlington and bassist/lead vocalist Ian Cattell, as well as the other expert musicians that have joined the ranks of Brit Floyd over the course of the last decade.
“Getting the band back on to a proper tour on their own turf in the UK since the pandemic presented some unforeseen challenges,” says Palladium Entertainment’s Andy Robbins. “We are very much looking forward to returning to the UK and giving the fans some truly special shows next year.”
The band’s current P-U-L-S-E World Tour includes North American dates from May-July before heading overseas for shows in Europe and the UK starting in September. For the current list of tour dates, including Europe and the UK, go here. This monumental celebration of musical history - presented by Palladium Entertainment - will commemorate the 30th Anniversary of Pink Floyd's iconic album, The Division Bell.
