An Evening with Watford Legends

John Barnes and Luther Blissett are coming to The Alban Arena on Wednesday 27 January 2027 for an evening of stories and banter. They're two of Watford's greatest-ever players, and the night is built around them talking through some of the most memorable chapters in the club's history.

Barnes was the Jamaican-born winger who became the first high-profile black player to grace Anfield in the 1980s, where he wore the No.10 shirt. Bob Paisley once said the qualities he possessed would have seen him walk into any of the great Liverpool sides of the past. Blissett was right there alongside him during Watford's rise, and together they'll be taking the audience through iconic matches, career-defining moments, and the dressing-room banter that went on behind the scenes. There are revelations from both on and off the pitch, and the whole thing opens up with a live audience Q&A, so you can put your own questions to them.

If you want a bit more, there's a limited VIP package that gets you early access, reserved seating, and a meet and greet with the two of them, plus a professional photograph to take home. Otherwise, it's just the two of them on stage sharing the stories from their time at the club.

The main show starts at 7:30pm, with the meet and greet running from 6:00pm. Tickets are £33.00, and the venue is The Alban Arena, Civic Centre, St Albans, Hertfordshire AL1 3LD.
