This landmark event marks a full-circle moment for the unstoppable Leigh band, who over the past three years have transformed from cult heroes into chart-topping national treasures.

Lottery Winners are pulling out all the stops for what promises to be an unforgettable night. They’ll be joined on stage by a stellar line up of special guests they’ve previously collaborated with, and who have appeared on their albums, including Frank Turner, and Reverend & The Makers, with further to be announced.

Support will come from close friends of the band Scouting for Girls, the chart-topping London trio best known for infectious hits like She’s So Lovely, Heartbeat, and This Ain’t a Love Song. They’ll be joined by local favourites The Lilacs, and a DJ set from Katie Owen to round off the night.

Past Concerts

We’re proud to have hosted two successful concerts here, one in 2014 and the other in 2018, which were major successes for both Leigh Sports Village and our local community.

On Saturday 21st June 2014, Sir Elton John kicked off his UK leg of a year long tour in front of 17,000 fans at our open-air stadium in his Yellow Brick Road Tour. This was to mark the 40th anniversary of his album, ‘Goodbye yellow brick road’ which started here in Leigh all those years ago. This was then followed with an amazing concert four years later, on Saturday 16th June 2018 by international superstar Lionel Richie, as part of his summer tour which put our town on the map once again. 

We are excited for what the future may hold for us here at LSV and the opportunities it may bring, including hosting different international events and concerts of all kinds. If you are interested in hosting your international event, festival or concert at Leigh Sports Village, please get in touch with our Commercial Sales Director on 01942 487823 or Samantha.Oshaughnessy@leighsportsvillage.co.uk
