"Watch this space!" - Plans underway to bring more music stars to The Piece Hall Halifax in 2025

This year’s 34-date concert series brought more than 180,000 music fans to The Piece Hall’s iconic open-air courtyard for headline shows from the likes of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, Blondie, Nile Rodgers & CHIC, Sheryl Crow, Loyle Carner, Tom Jones, Korn, Biffy Clyro, Fatboy Slim and Bryan Adams, plus many more.

Outside of events in London and the south coast, only Glastonbury and Liverpool’s Anfield stadium welcomed more gig goers to outdoor shows in England between June and August.

Co-promoters The Piece Hall Trust and Cuffe and Taylor are now hard at work planning for next summer’s eagerly-awaited programme – with some 2025 headline artists set to be revealed very soon.

Nicky Chance-Thompson MBE DL, CEO of The Piece Hall Charitable Trust, said: “It’s hard to find the words to describe Live at The Piece Hall 2024. There have been so many truly iconic moments.

“It’s been our biggest, best and most diverse season to date but the thing that has united the series is the absolute quality of every single performer who has graced our brilliant stage.

“I want to send the biggest thank you to every single person who made this season possible – our customers, members, sponsors TK Maxx, our co-promoters Cuffe and Taylor, Peppermint bars, Calderdale Council, The National Lottery Heritage Fund (NLHF), West Yorkshire Police and emergency services, our Board of Trustees, our tenants, the many volunteers, security, medics and cleaners and of course the entire brilliant Piece Hall staff team.

"You’ve done Calderdale and Yorkshire very proud!

“The challenge, of course, now is how do we top this year, but I’m delighted to reveal plans are well underway for 2025 – so watch this space!”

TK Maxx presents Live at The Piece Hall 2024 – which smashed venue box office records – has delivered a multi-million-pound boost for the local economy with many thousands of concert goers coming to the shows from outside Yorkshire.

Peter Taylor, co-founder of Cuffe and Taylor, today confirmed a number of big-name headliners have already signed up for 2025.

He said: “Our plans for next year are well underway and we have some amazing artists already lined up. We cannot wait to start announcing next year’s shows very soon.

“It’s been a sensational summer at The Piece Hall – a truly unique and special venue.

"With attendance figures eclipsing virtually every concert series and major festival in the UK, TK Maxx presents Live at The Piece Hall really has been the place to be.

“From the first show with legends Blondie, back in June, it’s been 34 incredibly special nights. Audiences have loved the shows and artists and their teams have raved about playing here.

“With a rich and diverse programme, The Piece Hall is now widely regarded in the music industry as one of the UK’s best and must-play venues.”
