Legendary DJ Pete Tong teams up with The Heritage Orchestra to perform a brand new outdoor Ibiza Classics show this summer and will head to Durham on Friday.  This major North East date follows a huge sold out UK tour, including two dates at London’s O2. Tong, famed as the voice of Radio 1’s dance programming, will once again team up with conductor Jules Buckley and a 65 piece Heritage Orchestra for the brand new production. The show takes some of the biggest dance floor fillers and classics from the Balearic island, and reinvents them with an orchestral sound, conducted by Jules Buckley.placeholder image
