Robbie Williams set to perform exclusive UK show at Royal Sandringham Estate in August 2023
Robbie Williams is set to headline an exclusive UK show at the Royal Sandringham Estate next summer.
The 'Angels', 'She's the One' and 'Millennium' hit-maker, 48, will be joined at the West Norfolk concert on Saturday, August 26 by a number of "special guests" who have yet to be announced, organisers said.
The former Take That member said he was "so honoured" to be playing the show, which will be his only stand-alone concert in the UK in 2023 and the first prestigious large-scale live music event to be hosted at Sandringham.
And Giles Cooper, from Heritage Live, who are organising the event, said: “It’s been an ambition of us all at Heritage Live to stage a concert for the legendary Robbie Williams and the thing about Robbie is that he keeps getting better and better.
“His 2022 Arena tour show was the best I’d ever seen him perform and for me he’s the best entertainer since Elvis.
“It will be the most magical concert in the most amazing surroundings that’ll live in our memories for ever.”
The outdoor concert comes after Williams’ eight-stop arena tour in October, following the release of his number one compilation album XXV.
The album marks the 25-year milestone in Williams’ glittering career as one of the world’s most decorated artists, with 14 UK number one albums, having left boyband Take That to pursue a solo career in 1995.
While the royal estate has played host to a number of events, including the mile-long Luminate Sandringham outdoor trail this Christmas, the concert will be the first time it has held a live-music event of this scale, organisers said.
The King will spend Christmas Day at Sandringham this year, marking a return to the traditional royal family Christmas on the Norfolk estate where the Queen hosted her family over the festive period.
The King and the Queen Consort are expected to be joined by their wider family as they mark their first Christmas since the Queen’s death.
Pre-sale tickets will be available from 9am on Thursday December 8 and general on-sale tickets will be available from 9am on Friday December 9 at www.axs.com/heritagelive.
