Hothouse Flowers to play Ilkley in 2027

The Irish band is scheduled to perform at King’s Hall and Winter Gardens on 8 June.

Hothouse Flowers are due to bring their Greatest Hits Tour to Ilkley in 2027, with the concert listed for 7.30pm on Tuesday, 8 June, at King’s Hall and Winter Gardens.

The venue is on Station Road, Ilkley, LS29 8HB. General admission tickets are listed at between £42.50 and £47, with discounts also available. The event listing does not specify which ticket types qualify for a discount.

A career spanning four decades

The tour is billed as a retrospective of music from across the band’s four decades of activity. Hothouse Flowers are known for a sound combining rock with traditional Irish music, soul and gospel. Songs named in the event listing include “Don’t Go”, “Give It Up” and their version of “I Can See Clearly Now”.

The band’s debut album, People, was released in 1988. It reached number one in the Irish charts and number two in the UK, according to the event information. The group followed it with Home in 1990 and Songs From the Rain in 1993; both reached number one in Ireland.

Hothouse Flowers separated in 1994 and reunited in 1998. The listing says they went on to release four further studio albums. It also describes the group’s live performances as involving improvisation, meaning the music can vary between shows.

Part of the band’s 2027 dates

The Ilkley date is among additional shows announced for 2027, following the band’s planned UK tour dates in 2026. The event information describes the concerts as featuring material from the group’s back catalogue, but does not provide a running order for the King’s Hall performance.

King’s Hall and Winter Gardens is hosting the concert as part of its programme of live events. Further details about tickets and availability are listed by Bradford Theatres.
