Iglesias for Benidorm

only 5000 tickets are on sale

As we predicted some while ago, Julio Iglesias will celebrate his 40 years in show business with a Benidorm concert. The crooner will return to the city - where he made his first triumph by winning the 1968 Benidorm Song Contest – on Saturday 16th August.

The town's bull ring is the venue for the concert starting at 22.30 and only 5000 tickets are on sale and cost from €75 up to €300. Other facts and figures that apply are a 24 metre stage, 2 giant high resolution video screens, 150,000 watts of lighting, 60,000 watts of sound, 8 musicians and 3 backing singers.

Now all we want to know is if his sons will join him on stage as was rumoured many months ago?
