On Sunday November 17, will mark the start of the festive season for many. The entertainment line-up has officially been announced, alongside a call for lucky ticket holders to get there early, ready for a fantastic night of fun. Entry gates to George Square will open to ticket holders at 5pm before musical acts and theatre stars kick-off an evening of lively performances.
The event, hosted by Clyde 1 presenters George Bowie and Cassi Gillespie, will start at 5.30pm when On Repeat – an uplifting girl group tribute band – take to the stage. Guaranteed to get the party started, they will kickstart a wonderful occasion with their rendition of recent chart toppers.
The night will continue with an appearance by the Pavilion Theatre’s Beauty and the Beastie panto stars, and the wonderful Soul Nation Choir who will fill the Square with song. Ahead of the big switch on at 7pm, Scottish singer-songwriting sensation Nathan Evans will take to the stage with musical duo SAINT PHNX in an exciting collaboration. The artist rose to fame when his catchy sea shanty Wellerman went viral in 2020.
Nathan Evans and SAINT PHNX have recently been seen in sold-out shows in Glasgow and London. The crowd can look forward to an energetic, fresh folk-pop sound, which blends Nathan Evans’ storytelling with the Glasgow-based brothers Stevie and Alan Jukes, pop/rock-influenced melodies. Their newest release, ‘Home’, will form part of the set.
