A huge three nights of live music saw more than 100,000 fans watch Take That prove they still rule the world at Coventry Building Society Arena.

Fans travelled from across the Midlands, the UK and Europe as Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald gave crowds the greatest nights of their lives during a spectacular three-night residency in Coventry.

Take That brought The Circus Live back to the city in incredible style, performing aboard a giant robotic elephant as they revisited one of the iconic shows from 2009.

Concertgoers had to have a little patience before the main event, with a standout support bill featuring Belinda Carlisle and The Script helping to build the atmosphere each night.

Carlisle opened the shows with a hit-filled set showcasing a career spanning more than four decades, before Irish band The Script took to the stage and raised the energy levels even further.

Then it was time for the main event, with Gary, Mark and Howard returning to the Coventry stage after nearly 17 years.

The production brought the full Big Top spectacle to Coventry, with dancers, circus performances, fire-breathers, tightrope walkers, clowns, trapeze artists, trampolinists, balloons, confetti and fireworks.

Thousands of fans joined in across all three nights with classics spanning Take That’s incredible career, from A Million Love Songs and Back for Good to Relight My Fire, Shine, Never Forget and Rule the World.

Paul Michael, Managing Director at Coventry Building Society Arena, said: “We have had some unforgettable nights of music at this venue, but these three evenings were right up there.

“To stage three back-to-back stadium shows for the first time since we last welcomed Take That was incredibly special.

“It was not only a huge moment for the Arena, but for the whole of Coventry and the wider region too, with thousands of fans spending time in the city before and after the shows and helping to deliver a major boost to the local economy.

“Nights like these are exactly why this venue was built. Coventry Building Society Arena was designed to bring major events to the region and attract visitors from across the UK and Europe.

“We will continue to strive to bring the biggest names in live music to the stage here at Coventry Building Society Arena for years to come.”
