It seems a reunion of The Smiths is about as likely as Mansfield Town winning the Premier League – but fans in across the East Midlands can still celebrate their legacy at an event at Leicester Cathedral this November.

An Evening of The Smiths will take the iconic hits of the popular Manc band and reinvent them into epic showpieces with a full live band and string quartet.

The show takes place on Saturday, November 30, 2024.

The concert is all seated, with different price bands available. On the evening the music will begin at 7.30pm, with two sets and a 20 minute interval, with the event finishing shortly before 10pm.
