Visitors to Eastbourne Bandstand can relive the most popular hits from an iconic English rock band this Friday night as Mercury perform a tribute concert to Queen.
A favourite date on the tribute concert calendar, Mercury are returning to Eastbourne’s historic seafront venue this Friday evening and audiences can look forward to performances of hits including Bohemian Rhapsody, Don’t Stop Me Now and We Will Rock You.
Eastbourne Borough Council Cabinet Member for Tourism, Cllr Neil Stanley said “The Queen tribute night is always a popular evening for Eastbourne Bandstand and we’ve had visitors enjoying the concert in all weathers singing and dancing along! I hope this week’s performance proves to be another hit, with lots more still to look forward to at the Bandstand in 2011.”
