The Drifters

This event has been cancelled.

In light of the COVID-19 pandemic and recent government advice, Hull City Council and Hull Culture and Leisure have taken the difficult decision to close both Hull City Hall and Hull New Theatre to the public and will cancel all performances with immediate effect for the next three months.

Hull City Hall and Hull New Theatre is currently working in liaison with promoters of upcoming shows to seek alternative dates for their productions.

Anyone with tickets for this performance, thank you for your patience Hull City Hall/Hull New Theatre will be in touch in due course.

Updates will be available on social media channels and website with the latest information as Hull City Hall and Hull New Theatre, continue to review the situation based on advice received from official bodies.

Legendary doo-wop and R&B group The Drifters are set to bring their virtuoso vocal talents to Hull City Hall.

The group will be performing all their classic hits from the last six decades including Saturday Night at the  Movies, Come on Over to My Place, Stand By Me, and Under the Boardwalk  on Saturday 6 June, 2020.

The new tour comes after the phenomenal success of their 65^th anniversary tour in 2018, further sell-out shows in 2019 and their induction into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame.

The Drifters, who are listed among the greatest artists of all time by Rolling Stone magazine, were created in 1953 by George Treadwell and Clyde McPhatter and they brought in several greats thereafter such as Johnny Moore and Ben E King.

This brand new show will have audiences dancing in the aisles rather than Kissin’ in the Back Row and searching little black books for More Than a Number.
