Star Shaped Tour is back for its fifth year! Following on from its success in London in 2016 when it first made its debut, it has become renowned by fans of the music and the artists of the Britpop era as THE event of the year and is once again delivering an amazing celebration of the era with two of the most iconic albums of 1995. Star Shaped resident DJs bring the party before, between and after the bands. The festival’s line-ups always reflect and honour this great period in music and 2020 is no exception and proves once more that such praise is well-deserved. With eight events across the UK in Manchester, Glasgow, Newcastle, Leeds, Birmingham, Bristol, Bournemouth and London, Britpop fans rejoice!
All tickets include entry to an exclusive after show party as our legendary Star Shaped Club DJ’s keep the celebrations going with a few special guests lending a hand on the decks!
