A Very Special Exclusive East Anglian Evening Show! coming to Bedford corn exchange on Thursday 19th November at 7.30pm.

This will see Ben Earle and Crissie Rhodes performing all their classic tracks. THE SHIRES achievements speak for themselves: three consecutive UK Top 3 albums, four #1 UK Country albums, 100 million+ streams, two Gold-certified records, and countless sold-out headline shows, including filling the prestigious Royal Albert Hall.

THE SHIRES first broke through in 2014 with their single ‘Nashville Grey Skies’, a playful song about Britain needing its own country scene. And that’s something which they helped happen, starting with their 2015 debut Brave, which became the first ever Top 10 album by a UK country music artist.

That success continued with a succession of hit albums: 2016’s My Universe, 2018’s Accidentally On Purpose, 2020’s Good Years and 2022’s 10 Year Plan. Their authenticity saw them embraced by the Nashville scene immediately, leading to two CMA Awards, touring highlights including C2C Festival and shows as guests to Carrie Underwood, Little Big Town, The Corrs and more.

PLUS GUEST SUPPORT!!

Get ready to laugh until your sides hurt as one of the worlds most loved comedians, Joe Avati comes to Bedford Corn Exchange on Saturday 1st may 2027

Over three decades, Joe Avati has cemented his reputation as one of Australia’s biggest comedy exports, originally captivating audiences with his razor-sharp observations about growing up Italian in Australia.

But if you think his humour only resonates with those who can relate to Nonna’s cooking and Sunday family gatherings, think again. In recent years, Joe has brilliantly expanded his repertoire to explore the quirks and contradictions of different generations, creating comedy that’s as relatable as it is side-splitting. What makes Joe’s show truly special in today’s entertainment landscape is its rare ability to bring families together.

His clean, family- friendly approach means grandparents, parents, and kids can all sit side by side, laughing at the same jokes – a genuinely unique experience in modern comedy. Whether you’re a Boomer reminiscing about simpler times, a Gen Xer caught between worlds, or a Millennial trying to explain TikTok to your parents, Joe’s observations will hit home.

“The Good Old Days” promises to be a masterclass in nostalgia, delivered with Joe’s trademark wit and impeccable timing. He’ll have you questioning whether those ‘good old days’ were really as good as we remember – all while keeping you in stitches with his deadly accurate observations about cultural differences and generational quirks.

With a proven track record of selling out shows across Australia and internationally, tickets for Joe’s brand new show won’t last long. This is your chance to experience comedy that transcends age, culture, and background – the kind of show that’ll have you laughing about shared memories and creating new ones with your family.

Don’t miss this opportunity to see why Joe Avati has remained one of the world biggest comedy draw card for 30 years. Book your tickets now before they disappear faster than the ‘good old days’ themselves.
