Music takes center stage in this new season. Pop to Rock, Soul to…Wait for it…BAGPIPES!

Blackpool Grand Theatre’s new season features some of the greatest live and tribute music shows currently touring the UK.

Ruth Eastwood, Chief Executive of Blackpool’s Grand, said, ‘This season we promised would be #DaringlyDifferent. We’ve planned a wide selection of eclectic shows, probably the biggest selection in one season ever!

‘We wanted to have something for everyone, whatever their taste.

‘My own anticipation is around The Red Hot Chilli Pipers. There’s never been anything quite like them, from their formation in 2002 and a cameo appearance at T in the Park in 2004 with the Darkness. The past fifteen years has seen the Red Hot Chilli Pipers become the most famous bagpipe band on the planet! Bagpipes with attitude, drums with a Scottish accent and a show that carries its own health warning – A real MUST SEE!’
