Return to The Red Planet Event

From King Arthur On Ice… Straight To The Surface Of Mars!

The countdown to Rick Wakeman's Return to the Red Planet has officially begun! We are celebrating the launch of the highly anticipated new album with an event so massive it defies gravity.

Welcome to the Mars Yard in Stevenage—the closest thing to the Martian landscape on Earth. Winners will get the ultimate space adventure for the afternoon, and still be home in time for dinner.

On September 18th at 1pm, across two unforgettable hours, Rick will pull back the curtain on his latest musical masterpiece.

What to Expect:

  • Martian Melodies: Live demonstrations of how the music was composed, featuring a real keyboard resting directly on the "Martian" soil.
  • Exclusive Playback: Be among the first to experience an exclusive full-album playback.
  • Q&A Session: An open floor for fans to ask Rick anything about the new record and his legendary career.
  • Ensemble Exposé: Rick will be joined by members of The English Rock Ensemble, who are ready to expose what it’s really like working with the caped crusader.
  • Grand Finale: If the stars align? A rare, show-stopping performance of Life on Mars to close the day.
