Sting will be bringing his ‘My Songs’ concert show to Bedford Park, which sold out at his six-night residency at the London Palladium.

It features his most beloved songs, written throughout his 17-time Grammy Award-winning career both with The Police and as a solo artist.

Concertgoers will be treated to a “musical journey” of hits like Fields of Gold, Shape of my Heart, Roxanne and Demolition Man.

Fans can also expect to hear Englishman In New York, Every Breath You Take, Roxanne, Message In A Bottle and many more.

My Songs was hailed “a masterclass” by The Times which said: “Sting remains an undeniably skilled performer with a gold-plated back catalogue.”

It was called “a rare treat” by The Telegraph and Sting was praised as “near peerless” by The Guardian with “sublime pop alchemy”.
