Music icon Lionel Richie has just announced details of a huge UK tour – including a show here in Manchester.
He has included a night at the Co-op Live arena as part of his Say Hello To The Hits tour, which will be a celebration of his decades-long career as one of the world’s greatest entertainers.
Lionel Richie is set to touch down in Manchester next summer, along with shows in Sheffield, Birmingham, Glasgow and London.
His biggest hits from over the years include Hello, Dancing On The Ceiling, Say You Say Me, We Are The World, Endless Love, and masses more.
