Hot on the heels of being nominated for a record breaking seven BRIT Awards, becoming the most nominated artist in a single year in BRIT Award history – Global superstar and cultural icon RAYE announces her first ever headline show at London’s O2 Arena. Tickets go on sale 10am on Tuesday 30 January at LiveNation.co.uk
This momentous event will be a larger take on My 21st Century Symphony Live, the sensational show at London’s prestigious Royal Albert Hall with a majestic live orchestra and an incredible gospel choir, televised on BBC One and closed a groundbreaking 2023 for Raye. RAYE was overwhelmed by the response to the BBC airing of the Royal Albert Hall performance and received so many messages asking her to do it again. RAYE says “This is my first headline performance at The O2 Arena. We will have 90 guests on stage, including the Heritage Orchestra and Flames Collective, our guests from The Royal Albert Hall, to perform My 21st Century Symphony. We scarily will have one month to attempt to sell 18,000 tickets, but no matter how many tickets we sell or don’t sell, I’m going to give the best show I can possibly give. I am counting down the days for this moment”.
RAYE – My 21st Century Symphony
Friday 15 March 2024, The O2 Arena, London UK
A No.2 album in the UK, ‘My 21st Century Blues’ was a decade in the making and RAYE’s debut album as an independent artist. On her own terms RAYE gave space for listeners who have faced and overcome adversity, with anthems for women in the industry that recounted her own painful experiences with sexual abuse, rape, body dysmorphia, addiction, misogyny, and even climate change. The album was nominated for ‘Best Independent Album’ at the AIM Independent Music Awards and was one of only 12 albums selected as a finalist for the 2023 ‘Mercury Music Prize’.
