Cliff Richard will be broadcasting a live performance to cinemas across the UK to celebrate his sixtieth year of making music, with a screening at Falmouth’s Phoenix Cinema on October 12.

The singer will be performing live from Manchester’s Bridgewater Hall, and will also be doing an encore show on Sunday October 14 to celebrate his 78th birthday.

Sir Cliff Richard has a staggering 103 album releases, a record breaking 123 single hits and the equivalent of 20 years spent in the UK charts.

Presented by CinemaLive, leading producers and distributors of Event Cinema, Cliff Richard Live: 60th Anniversary Tour will be shown on over 700 screens in the UK and Ireland including major multiplexes and many independent cinemas and arts centres.

Broadcast direct via satellite, cinema goers will be able to celebrate with Sir Cliff on this very special night, up close and personal like never before.

Cliff said “This 60th Anniversary year is such a very special one for me, with an album release of exciting new tracks in the autumn and to be able to bring my show live to cinemas around the U.K is an absolute thrill.

“I have the most wonderful fans and to be able to share this special evening live in Manchester with so many people is such a gift.

“I really will feel like I am with everyone that night, I can’t wait!”

He is the only British pop artist to have number one hits in every decade from the 1950s to the end of the 20th Century from rock tracks like ’Devil Woman’ to ballads like ’Miss You Nights’ - not to mention the UK’s best-loved Christmas songs.

The show will be broadcast at 8pm on Friday 12th October.
