Big names are coming to Lincoln this year in an exciting line-up of events!

Comedy heavyweights Alan Carr, Russell Howard and Lee Evans will entertain audiences at two prominent entertainment venues in the city to test out their material and some major music acts will be performing at the Lincolnshire Events Centre this summer.

The Tooth Fairy Alan Carr is set to appear at the Lincoln Performing Arts Centre on 21st March to try out the material for his forthcoming 33-date UK and Ireland tour – his first in four years!

Lee Evans’ Work-in-Progress show at the LPAC in May will also see him test out his material for his Roadrunner tour due to take place in the autumn and Russell Howard will be coming to the Lincoln Drill Hall for an intimate warm-up gig of his Right Here, Right Now tour in June.

Tickets to see these comedy geniuses range from just £15 to £25! Can’t say no to that now can you Lincoln?!

On the music front the Midsummer Magic concert series at the Lincolnshire Showground kicks off on 23rd July with a warm-up concert taking place on 14th May featuring British rock legends Status Quo.

Headlining the concert series is Boy George, while Stacey Soloman of X-Factor fame and Queen of the Jungle in I’m a Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here, Jason Donovan and Belinda Carlisle are also on the bill.

The Real Thing, Curiosity Killed the Cat, Björn Again, an Abba tribute band and…wait for it…JEDWARD will also perform.

Previously held at Lincoln Castle, the summer musical series has attracted big names including Sugababes and Girls Aloud.
