Remember the day rock & roll changed the world with Just For One Day in Nottingham

Now, more than 40 years on, audiences can discover the behind-the-scenes story of Live Aid in a whole new way in Just For One Day - The Live Aid Musical.

The story behind the greatest gig in music history, Just For One Day - The Live Aid Musical is touring the UK in 2027 and comes to Nottingham’s Theatre Royal next July.

Live Aid was an unprecedented global music event that brought 1.5 billion people together and they all have a story to tell about ‘the day rock ‘n’ roll changed the world’.

The show features hit songs by Bob Dylan, David Bowie, The Who, U2, Queen, Madonna, The Police, Elton John, Paul McCartney, Diana Ross and more of the iconic artists who made history at simultaneous charitable concerts in London and Philadelphia.

Bob Geldof, the man behind Live Aid, said: “Just For One Day brilliantly reimagines why Live Aid worked then and why the humanity of that day still matters now.

"I'm delighted that more of the UK and Ireland will finally get to see this extraordinary and compelling musical.

"The reaction the show gets continually surprises and amazes me, standing ovations and people come back time and again, introducing the Live Aid story to new generations."

Celebrating the iconic Live Aid concerts in London and Philadelphia, Just For One Day - The Live Aid Musical will continue to support the work of The Band Aid Charitable Trust with £1.5m raised to date.

Written by John O’Farrell, the show was originally presented at The Old Vic Theatre in London in January 2024 and became the theatre’s fastest selling musical ever.

It comes to Nottingham’s Theatre Royal from July 20 to 24 next year.
