Elton John: The Red Piano Tour

Elton John returns to The NIA on Tuesday 16 December for the second Birmingham date of his outrageous Las Vegas Show The Red Piano.

The Red Piano show, conceptualised and designed by acclaimed photographer and good friend of Elton, David LaChapelle, has been running at The Colosseum, Caesars Palace, Las Vegas to packed houses since 2004. Sir Elton brought the show to London’s O2 Arena in September 2007, to rave reviews, as part of his 60th birthday celebrations and to mark 40 years of touring.

The larger-than-life set, complete with Elton’s iconic Yamaha red grand piano, has been designed to reflect Elton’s flamboyance alongside his peerless musicianship. The theme throughout The Red Piano is love, symbolised by the colour red and articulated through the songs and state-of-the art effects and high-end imagery.

During the shows, audiences will be treated to live performances of the phenomenal back catalogue of Elton John and Bernie Taupin, including hits such as Rocket Man, Yellow Brick Road and Candle In The Wind.

A selection of hospitality packages will also be available for the performance.
