After a run of sold-out shows, UK Calling returns to Peterborough on Saturday, November 15 for a night of bold, unmistakably British sound.

From Bronski Beat to The Cure, Tears for Fears to The Style Council, this is the real '80s — cool, alternative, and performed live by a seven-piece powerhouse with a full horn section.

You’ll hear Simple Minds, Joy Division, Madness, and more—deep cuts and iconic tracks most bands won’t even attempt.

You already know what UK Calling delivers: authenticity, musicianship, and energy that doesn’t let up. This is no retro cash-in. This is live music, done properly.

If you grew up blasting CFNY, flipping through vinyl at Sam the Record Man, or dancing in Docs under strobe lights — this night is for you.

Saturday, Nov 15

The Gordon Best Theatre, Peterborough
