Ibiza Classics is back! Now firmly part of the live music calendar, Pete Tong along with Jules Buckley and The Heritage Orchestra will return with a brand new live show this November. Bringing together a fresh set up including an array of special guest singers and an unparalleled production with updated visuals, expect to hear new songs in the set as well as your favourites.

 

Pete Tong has today announced a whole host of special guest vocalists for the tour. He will be joined by Queen of Soul Beverley Knight and rising star AU/RA in Birmingham, Manchester and London and Godfather of Grime Wiley in London only.  For all dates Pete will be joined by the incredible Sinead Harnett, Becky Hill and MysDiggi.

 

Celebrating the legacy of dance music the show re-imagines some of the White Isle’s most iconic records from the past two decades fusing together visual effects and music technology into phenomenal vibrant orchestral interpretations. With its infectious, energetic music reworked by artistic director Chris Wheeler the show will once again be conducted by the highly acclaimed Jules Buckley and accompanied by the 65-piece Heritage Orchestra. Having already captured the hearts of millions with sold out dates across the UK including arena shows at London The O2, Ibiza Classics is the world’s most iconic classical electronic music event and promises to be a party like no other.

 

At the helm is the voice of Radio 1’s prestigious dance programming, Pete Tong. Pete has held a commanding presence over the industry for more than two decades. His unique position has earned him a reputation as one of Britain’s most influential figures in electronic dance music.

 

The show’s accompanying album ‘Classic House’ was released last year to overwhelming acclaim, and topped Number One in the UK charts becoming the biggest-selling debut of 2016. Following the huge success of his compilation record, Pete released the follow-up album ‘Ibiza Classics’ late last year which is available now via https://petetong.lnk.to/ibizaclassics.
