David Essex - Thanks for the memories

Sunday, September 20, 2026 - Manchester, Manchester

Manchester Opera House hosts David Essex on 20 September 2026 as the Thanks For The Memories tour moves through the north-west. Centred on British rock and soft rock, the set connects songs associated with "Forever" and "Stage Struck" to the live lineage of "I’ll Be Missing You Tour (The Final Show)". Coming straight after Liverpool Philharmonic, the Opera House’s theatrical layout underpins the narrative thread of Essex’s long career, with rock-driven numbers and softer ballads sharing equal weight across the performance.
