Global pop legends a-ha are bringing their 2022 World Tour to the Yorkshire coast this summer.
Almost 40 years after their breakthrough, the synth pop pioneers are still creating magic on stages across the globe with their timeless music.
And the multi-Platinum selling Norwegian trio are now bringing their World Tour to Scarborough Open Air Theatre on Sunday July 3. Widely regarded as true visionaries of both music and video technology, a-ha – who are vocalist Morten Harket, guitarist Pal Waaktaar-Savoy and keyboardist Magne Furuholmen – burst onto the global stage in 1985.
Their debut album Hunting High and Low, which featured the Number 1 hits Take on Me and The Sun Always Shines On TV, is widely regarded as one of the most important releases of the 1980s.
Venue programmer and promoter Peter Taylor, of Cuffe and Taylor, said: “a-ha are true pop pioneers, visionaries and one of the most loved bands of the last 40 years.
“Their 2022 tour sees them headline many huge venues, including the Hollywood Bowl, so we are delighted to be bringing them to the UK’s very own iconic open-air arena – right here on the beautiful Yorkshire coast.”
Tickets go on sale at 9am on Friday March 25 via scarboroughopenairtheatre.com
