Groups of ten or more can now book tickets to see Just For One Day, which is transferring to the West End after becoming The Old Vic theatre’s fastest selling musical ever.
Just For One Day – The Live Aid Musical will begin performances at The Shaftesbury Theatre on Thursday 15th May 2025, before a special gala performance on Sunday 13th July, exactly 40 years after the historic concerts were staged in London and Philadelphia. It will run until 10th January 2026.
It’s said that groups will be able to discover the story of the unprecedented global music event that brought 1.5 billion people together, and they all have a story to tell about ‘the day rock ‘n’ roll changed the world’.
The show features hit songs by Bob Dylan, David Bowie, The Who, U2, Queen, Madonna, The Police, Elton John, Paul McCartney, Diana Ross and many more artists who made history by performing at the concerts in 1985.
Jamie Wilson, who produces the show, said: “Just For One Day was the fastest selling musical in The Old Vic’s history. The story of how the world united together through music has captivated audiences of all ages. We are thrilled to be able to bring this production to The Shaftesbury Theatre in the West End, opening on the 40th Anniversary of the Live Aid concerts with the same timeless songs, renowned creative team and a hugely talented company.”
Craige Els will reprise his performance as Bob. Further casting is set to be announced.
