Sophie Ellis-Bextor’s biggest ever headline show turns On The Mount at Wasing to On The Dancefloor at Wasing for one night only
Sophie Ellis-Bextor has just announced her biggest ever headline show as she turns the summer concert series On The Mount at Wasing into On The Dancefloor at Wasing.
It has been an incredible few years for pop royalty Sophie, having entertained the nation both through their screens and live in sold out venues up and down the country with her Kitchen Disco. She has performed on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury, released a top 10 album and recently her song Murder On The Dancefloor has had a resurgence around the world after featuring in the closing scene in the film Saltburn.
Now she intends to celebrate this extraordinary success with a huge summer party this year – her biggest ever headline show - when the concert series On The Mount at Wasing will become On The Dancefloor at Wasing for one night only.
Sophie said: “It’s been a magical and surreal time for me in the last couple of months, let alone the last few years. It’s going to be really special having our own massive celebration at On the Mount at Wasing, tucked away from the world in the middle of the Berkshire countryside.”
Taking place on Wednesday, June 26 in the most stunning of venues, the exclusive outdoor headline show will see her bring the disco party to the West Berkshire countryside, The Mount on the Wasing Estate, nestled in a spectacular woodland amphitheatre.
The show and ultimate countryside disco party features special guests Princess Superstar and Fat Tony.
Featuring in the climactic scene of Saltburn, Murder on the Dancefloor returned to the UK Top 10 Singles Chart for the first time since its original 2001 release recently, as well as debuting in the US Billboard Top 100, spawning news articles, cover versions, viral lip syncs, and more. The song will be re-released on limited edition 7-inch vinyl and CD on Friday.
On The Mount at Wasing concert series returns for its second year following a hugely successful debut. Previously announced for On The Mount at Wasing 2024 are Australian rock icons Crowded House who will kick off the shows on June 17, London electronic duo Jungle who will perform with their explosive full live band on June 27, and dance icons Underworld who will headline on June 29.
Solstice At The Mount takes place on June 20; an immersive celebration of world music & culture with headliners Nick Mulvey and Rodrigo Y Gabriela on the main stage together with intimate late night fireside performances from Awarë and Ajeet.
Set on Wasing Estate, The Mount is . From the woodland trail arrival into a unique & mindful space to the wildflowers awaiting concertgoers within the amphitheatre, The Mount is fully immersed in nature.
