The Drifters

The Drifters are playing Victoria Hall on Friday 19 March 2027, starting at 7:30pm. It's a big name for the hall, and the set will draw on more than 60 years of their catalogue. You'll hear the well-known ones — 'Saturday Night at the Movies', 'Under the Boardwalk', 'Come on Over to My Place', 'Kissin' In The Back Row', 'Save the Last Dance for Me' and 'There Goes My First Love' — alongside newer material.

They're one of the longest-serving bands in history, with over 50 hits and sales of more than 214 million singles and 114 million albums. They've been inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, performed for the President of the United States, and were listed among the Greatest Artists of All Time by Rolling Stone. The line-up has shifted more than 60 times since the group started, with singers like Clyde McPhatter, Ben E. King, Johnny Moore and Rudy Lewis passing through over the decades.

Today the band is fronted by Tina Treadwell, daughter of original founders George and Faye Treadwell, whose guidance has brought a resurgence of successful UK tours and headline shows in major arenas. The set they'll be playing at Victoria Hall reaches back across those six decades, so you'll get the early records and the later ones in the same night.

Tickets start from £33.28, and the show is at Victoria Hall, Bagnall Street, Hanley, Stoke-on-Trent, ST1 3AD, on Friday 19 March 2027, from 7:30pm.
