Boe's Back In Town

One of the world’s most successful tenors is looking forward to performing in Scarborough this month

The tenth Armed Forces Day is expected to attract more than 25,000 people to Scarborough this month. The day will feature marching bands, vintage stalls and spectacular displays on land, sea and air, and in the evening one of the world’s best tenors will perform at the town’s open air theatre - the largest in Europe.

Alfie Boe is hoping for much better weather than he encountered during his last appearance on the Yorkshire coast, when he performed alongside Michael Ball last summer in a torrential downpour.

‘Neither Michael or myself will ever forget that night,’ he said. ‘The rain really was something else that night, but the crowd were simply fantastic.’
