Bonobo: Live From Times Square 2018: Times Square

EDM giant Bonobo will be performing at this year's Live from Times Square event.

Taking place at the Centre of Life in Newcastle on Thursday 23 August, Bonobo will make their Live From Times Square debut in another major coup for the region's festival programme this summer.

Bonobo's rise has been stealthy but unstoppable, and Si Green, the man behind it all, is now one of the biggest electronic artists of our time.

As a DJ and with the Bonobo live band, he's now played to millions of people across the world in shows and festivals, and each album has been bigger than the last with 2017's Migration hitting the top five in the UK and top ten in the Netherlands and Belgium and getting untold press coverage everywhere.

Playing Live From Times Square on 23 August, Bonobo's performance promises to be something a bit special - tickets go on sale Monday 23 April at 10am.
