Boyband in the Buff: Starring Gareth Gates

Tickets: £35, Limited Meet & Greet £65 – Meet & Greet at 6pm

Get ready to scream like it’s 1999!  Boyband in the Buff is the ultimate throwback concert – starring pop heartthrob Gareth Gates and a cast of ripped and ridiculously talented performers. With nothing but harmonies, dance moves, and a whole lot of skin, the boys belt out the biggest hits of the ‘90s and ‘00s—from Backstreet Boys to NSYNC, Blue to Take That—in a show that’s as nostalgic as it is naughty.

It’s a celebration of pop, passion, and pecs, where the clothes come off and the heat turns up. This is the ultimate night out for anyone who’s ever swooned over a boyband.

Warning: Contains tight harmonies and tighter pants. (At least, for the first few numbers.)
