As a special feature for the 2018 show, there will also be hits by Adele along with a tribute to George Michael.

Bruce said: “There’s no concert more enjoyable than Symphonic Rock.

“The full-throated sound of a large orchestra puts a totally new spin on the most familiar of rock songs. I love it and I guarantee you will too.”

Symphonic Rock starts at 7.30pm on Friday, November 2.

Tickets cost from £15 with concessions available.
