Irish pop superstars Westlife are bringing their landmark 25th anniversary concert to the big screen this November – with screenings taking place at Vue Reading, Showcase Cinema de Lux Winnersh, and Cineworld in Bracknell.

Westlife 25 – Live at the Royal Albert Hall will be shown in more than 400 cinemas across the UK and Ireland from Saturday 29 November, capturing the band’s first performance at the famous London venue.

The concert sees Westlife joined by the Royal Philharmonic Concert Orchestra, delivering new arrangements of their biggest hits alongside fan favourites.

And best of all, fans will have a ringside seat without having to travel to the big city, as the concert is being screened in cinemas.

Fans can look forward to timeless tracks such as Flying Without Wings, Swear It Again, and You Raise Me Up, all performed in one of the world’s most prestigious concert halls and captured with breathtaking visuals and surround sound.
