Win tickets to see The Cure at The Royal Albert Hall

 

WIN TICKETS TO SEE THE CURE LIVE AT

THE ROYAL ALBERT HALL!

We are running an amazing competition to win a pair of tickets to the sold out Reflections show at the Royal Albert Hall on Tuesday November 15th, but be quick as it ends midday on Thursday 10th November.

This is the only UK date announced on their Reflections Tour and a final chance to see them play the first three albums live in their entirety. From the punchy, offbeat, starkly unadorned songs of Three Imaginary Boys (1979), through the increasingly shadowy and quixotic pieces of Seventeen Seconds (1980), to the singular melancholic grandeur of Faith (1981), this will be a truly extraordinary concert experience not to be missed!
