Emirates Riverside to host Little Mix concert in July 2020

Pop superstars Little Mix are taking their unmissable live show on the road next year with their 21-date Summer 2020 tour. The world’s biggest girl band will perform to fans across England, Scotland and Wales including a show at Durham’s Emirates Riverside on Thursday July 16.

The tour will see Little Mix perform some of their greatest hits including ‘Woman Like Me’, ‘Touch’, ‘Shout Out to My Ex’, ‘Black Magic’ and ‘Wings’.

Speaking about the Summer 2020 Tour, the group said: “Performing live is our favourite thing to do as a band, we love it.

“Our last Summer tour in 2018 was one of our favourites ever, so we can’t wait for some more brilliant outdoor shows next year. We want everyone to come party with us in the sunshine!”

Speaking about the Summer 2020 tour coming to Durham, Emirates Riverside Chief Operating Officer Richard Dowson: “We are delighted to be welcoming Little Mix back to Emirates Riverside. They always put on a fantastic show and the crowd loved them last time they played in Durham.

“The North East have a real affinity with the group and we are sure there will be a huge crowd ready to welcome them.”

Little Mix have firmly established their reputation as one of the most phenomenal groups    around. Alongside massive tours of Europe, Australia, Japan and the US, the group have just completed their mammoth LM5 Arena Tour which took in cities across Europe, the UK and Ireland including an amazing five sold out dates at London’s O2 Arena.

Since 2011, Perrie Edwards, Jesy Nelson, Leigh-Anne Pinnock and Jade Thirlwall have not only established themselves as one of British pop’s brightest acts, but as a global pop phenomenon.

They have fully cemented their status as the world’s biggest girl band, with the quartet asserting dominance in the charts album after album.

They have sold more than 50 million records worldwide, collected more than 17 million Spotify listeners, received more than 3 billion Youtube views, and collated 12 billion streams worldwide. Record sales have seen them notch up a total of four UK No.1 singles, four platinum-selling albums and nine platinum selling singles, surpassing a record previously held by the Spice Girls. Their 2016 album ‘Glory Days’ was the biggest selling album by a female group this millennium in the UK, alongside being named the longest-reigning Top 40 album for a girl group ever.
