Annie Lennox announces Royal Albert Hall headline show for Women’s History Month
Annie Lennox has announced details of the first-ever SISTERS: Annie Lennox and Friends show, which will be held at London’s legendary Royal Albert Hall on 6th March 2025.
The live concert is in aid of The Circle, a charity Lennox founded to raise funds for women and girls “facing violence and injustice across the world”.
This will be the Eurythmics star’s first UK headline show in 2019. The show takes place during Women’s History Month and two days before International Women’s Day. Tickets go on sale 10am, Friday, 15th November.
Further details, including the full line-up, are to be announced in the coming months.
Lennox commented: “I am delighted to be headlining ‘SISTERS: Annie Lennox and Friends’ at the Royal Albert Hall during Women’s History Month next year. The money raised will go to The Circle NGO, a global feminist organisation that I founded back in 2008.
“The Circle is committed to standing in solidarity and action with women facing violence and injustice across the world. The need has never been greater or more urgent. Millions of women and girls globally are facing increased oppression, while shockingly, 1 in 3 will face violence in their lifetime.
“I am proud to be part of an event that will make a vital difference to women worldwide who are striving for safety, gender equality and justice. It’s going to be an inspirational occasion.”
Annie Lennox was among the musicians who signed an open letter calling for faster Windrush compensation.
