The Piece Hall has just celebrated a record-breaking summer of live music.

This year’s 34-date concert series brought more than 180,000 music fans to venue’s iconic open-air courtyard with headline shows from the likes of Noel Gallagher’s High Flying Birds, Blondie, Nile Rodgers & CHIC, Sheryl Crow, Loyle Carner, Tom Jones, Korn, Biffy Clyro, Fatboy Slim and Bryan Adams, plus many more.

Outside of events in London and the south coast, only Glastonbury and Liverpool’s Anfield stadium welcomed more gig goers to outdoor shows in England between June and August – confirming The Piece Hall as one of the nation’s leading live music venues.

Nicky Chance-Thompson MBE DL, CEO of The Piece Hall Trust, said: “How exciting to be making our first announcement of 2025 while we’re still on such a high from the enormous success of this summer’s shows.

“We’re back with a bang as one of the biggest pop groups in recent years head to our stunning venue for what will be another incredible summer of live music.

“The Script are a much-requested artist, so we are delighted to be able to announce them as our first headliners for 2025 alongside the incredible Tom Walker. We have many other exciting announcements coming very soon so watch this space!”

The Script – made up of Danny O’Donoghue (vocals), Glen Power (drums), Ben Sargeant (bass) and Ben Weaver (guitar) – first rose to fame in 2008 with the release of their self-titled debut album, which featured hit singles The Man Who Can’t Be Moved and Breakeven. Since then, the band have enjoyed a hit-filled career including six Number One albums.

With their infectious energy, The Script present a memorable night of new music and fan-favourites, which is sure to be a hit as they make their Halifax debut.

BRIT Award winner Tom Walker is a British singer-songwriter who burst onto the scene with his hit single Leave a Light On. His debut album What a Time to Be Alive, topped the UK Albums Chart and showcased his distinctive sound. Tom’s performance is set to add an extra layer of excitement to what promises to be an unforgettable night at The Piece Hall.
