THE BRITISH INVASION Announced at The Eccles Center
The British Invasion – Live on Stage will showcase the music and how it impacted art, fashion, literature, changing pop culture and redirecting history.
On Sunday, February 9, 1964, close to 50 percent of U.S. television viewers tuned in to the number one variety show of the era, The Ed Sullivan Show, to see the American debut of a British group called The Beatles. This was the beginning of a cultural phenomenon known as the British invasion.
On March 24, 2022 at Eccles Theater, audiences will experience The British Invasion - Live on Stage (www.TheBritishInvationLive.com), an all-new live concert event that showcases the most popular music from that era. Featuring songs from The Rolling Stones, Dave Clark 5, The Animals, The Kinks and Dusty Springfield, this immersive multimedia show will place the audience front and center of pop culture history.

From the producers of The Simon & Garfunkel Story, The British Invasion - Live on Stage will showcase the music and how it impacted art, fashion, literature, changing the very essence of pop culture and redirecting history.
