Rick Wakeman is at his best in front of an audience, as I'm sure many of you know. This page contains details of all forthcoming performances worldwide, together with reviews where they exist from previous concerts. If you have any reviews, or if you'd like to write one yourself, please let me know. We also try where possible to list appearances on TV and radio.

Concerts & Appearances

Christmas Piano Evening

Rick will be performing an evening of Christmas piano music at The Granary near Beccles in Norfolk on 4th December. SOLD OUT


An Evening with Rick Wakeman and Friends

Rick will be performing at The St Albans Arena on 6th December to raise funds for the Brain Charity Trust. Guests include comedian Joe Pasquale. For tickets see the event website.


Carol Concert at St Peter's Belgravia

Rick will be taking part in the annual carol concert in aid of the Blue Cross at St Peter's Church Belgravia on 10th December. This is a wonderful way to bring in Xmas, especially if you love animals. It's a wonderful evening of poems, stories, carols and anecdotes from stars of stage and screen. Last year Rick wrote a carol for them and it is going to be repeated again this year and next year will hopefully appear as part of an album which will be sold exclusively to raise funds for The Blue Cross.


Carol Concert at All Saints Parish Church, The Bury, Odiham

Rick will be taking part in a Christmas concert in aid of Cystic Fibrosis on Tuesday 15th December. Details of the church can be found on their website.


The Four Churches Festival

Rick will be taking part in his local Four Churches Festival from 26th-29th May 2010. Further details will be published nearer the time.


Festivals in 2010

Just to give a little bit of advanced notice before we're able to provide exact details, Rick is currently planning to appear at the following festivals in 2010.


The Six Wives of Henry VIII at Hampton Court Palace - May 1st & 2nd 2009

The concert is set to be released on October 5th 2009 on both DVD and Blu-Ray, both of which can be preordered at Amazon UK currently. This marks the first ever high definition release from Rick that we're aware of. There is a short clip of Catherine of Aragon on the Eagle Rock website.

The live CD that was produced and distributed on the night can be ordered online directly from Concert Live. There are only a limited quantity left so get your orders in quickly if you want one.

We have received a number of enquiries about purchasing programmes for the event which sadly ran out on the Saturday evening. These are being offered directly from the merchandising company along with the other items on sale on the night. We've just been informed that they are doing a new run so they are available to order now.

We will try to post a list of links here to coverage of the event.


Tours

The One a Month Tour 2010

Although I have stopped the long touring, I do enjoy getting up on stage and playing and have really enjoyed the one man shows with the piano that I have done at a few Arts Festivals over the last couple of years and to this end have decided to "tour" in the UK next year performing just 12 shows - one a month!
