The Band’s line up is classic Eurovision – two boys, two girls, dance routines, harmonies and extravagant outfits.

And they will be bringing those to The Stables in Milton Keynes on Thursday May 26. There are a few tickets left for the concert.

Originally put together as the perfect winning act, Bucks Fizz went far beyond their original Eurovision remit and as one of the biggest selling bands of the 80’s became a global phenomenon.

Making Your Mind Up became a number one hit across the world selling more than four million copies. The legendary skirt-ripping routine propelled them to overnight success charting at No. 1 in 9 countries beyond the UK.

Mike Nolan, Cheryl Baker, and Jay Aston are joined by Bobby McVay, himself a Eurovision veteran having represented the UK in 1983 with the band, Sweet Dreams, singing I’m Never Giving Up, which came a credible sixth in the competition.

Cheryl said: “I cannot believe it is 35 years we won The Eurovision Song Contest! We are looking forward to celebrating with fans old and new. We recreate our familiar hits both vocally and visually which takes the audience on a nostalgic journey back to the 80’s.”

Recent appearances at the nostalgia festivals, including Here and Now, Rewind and Let’s Rock, have reminded the Great British public of the power of The Fizz, as every person in the crowd finds themselves singing along and dancing to hits of their youth.

The once 10 year old screaming fans of the 80’s are now 40 year old mums who bring their own 10 year olds – The Fizz’ appeal spans the generations!

This year will also see the release of their most recent album Fame & Fortune on vinyl in a collector’s presentation box. They are also in the studio with a world-renowned producer recording yet another album – a collaboration that the fans will be thrilled about.

The show starts at 8pm and tickets cost £22.50. They can be booked by calling 01908 280800 or visit www.stables.org/Whats_on/Event/Cheryl,__Mike_Jay_formerly_of_Bucks_Fizz_35th_Anniversary_tour
