The Proclaimers

The Proclaimers are playing the Swansea Building Society Arena on Sunday 8 November, their first time back on stage since the Dentures Out world tour wrapped up in August 2023. That tour ran for 14 months, and this date is part of their return to the live circuit.

For those who know them, the band is the Scottish duo of identical twins Craig and Charlie Reid. They first appeared 37 years ago with their debut album This Is The Story and the Top 3 single 'Letter from America'. They're best known for 'I'm Gonna Be (500 Miles)', which became the theme song for the film Benny & Joon and for the Terry Fox Run charity event, as well as the Comic Relief version of the same song. Early in their career, producers were wary of their strong accent; the brothers refused to tone down their Scottish brogue and wrote 'Throw the R Away' as a result.

This show comes with their 13th studio album, and the set will pull from both ends of their catalogue: the classic hits alongside new material. It's a good way to hear where they've come from and where they are now in one go. VIP Box Seats and Corporate Hospitality are available for select shows, so there are a few different ways to see them depending on what you're after.

Tickets start from £43.76, with a £3.95 transaction fee on top. The show starts at 7:30 PM at the Swansea Building Society Arena on Sunday 8 November.
