R&B ORCHESTRA LIVE - Newcastle Cathedral - October 2026

Step inside some of the UK’s most breathtaking cathedral spaces for an unforgettable live concert experience where timeless R&B anthems meet the power, emotion and energy of a full live orchestra.

Dance to 90s slow jams and neo-soul classics to modern R&B favourites, hear the songs that defined generations reimagined with soaring strings, bold brass, stunning vocals and cinematic arrangements performed by a 20-piece orchestra and exceptional live singers.

Expect a night full of nostalgia, feel-good energy, singing at the top of your lungs, dancing with your people and losing yourself in the music — all set beneath the breathtaking beauty and incredible acoustics of iconic Newcastle cathedral.

Whether you grew up on Usher, Alicia Keys, TLC, Mary J. Blige, Destiny’s Child, Brandy, Ne-Yo and more — or simply love great music performed live — this is a night made for true R&B lovers who still know every word.

More than a concert, this is an immersive live experience where iconic R&B bangers become something truly unforgettable.
