André Rieu celebrates his 75th Birthday! The King of the Waltz invites you to a boat party with him and his beloved Johann Strauss Orchestra as they sail through his
hometown of Maastricht. This brand-new cinema special is a tribute to André’s childhood dream of one day forming his own orchestra and travelling the world.
The film features a selection of André’s favourite and most spectacular global performances along with some of the finest moments the Maestro and his Johann Strauss Orchestra have shared during their many decades together.
Most of the concerts featured in this film – The Dream Continues – have never been shown on the big screen before. To mark this amazing milestone, this is your chance to see these iconic André classics for the first time. Come aboard and celebrate André’s 75th in style at your local cinema!
We’ll be hosting a very special screening of the Oscar-winning Wallace & Gromit: The Wrong Trousers, complete with a live brass band!
See the film as never before, with the Unite Brass Band performing the film’s soundtrack live!
A mysterious penguin and a pair of automated techno-trousers are the catalysts for a fast-moving comedy thriller, in which mild mannered Wallace finds himself an unwitting accomplice to a daring diamond robbery. His faithful dog Gromit turns detective in a desperate attempt to save his master, but even he finds his ingenuity tested to the full as events build towards a spectacular and hilarious climax – a train chase around Wallace’s living room!
The performance will also feature a medley of children’s classics before the screening, and a chance to meet the band and view the instruments after the film has finished!

Aaron Liddard is a wizard saxophonist, composer and band leader with a terrific musical pedigree. He’s toured with a galaxy of stars including Prince, Amy Winehouse, Beverley Knight and the Boomtown Rats.
But his true love is jazz and blues, working in and with big bands such as The London Jazz Collective and his own band. Aaron’s eclectic take on music doesn’t lend itself to simple categorisation – and we say “Bravo!” for that. Held in esteem by his peers, he hosted the successful UK Club Night jam session at Jazz Ahead, the annual European Jazz Showcase on Germany this year.
Aaron’s Nylon Man sextet features the beautiful vocals of Giulia Marelli and two drummers. The band’s live performances are highly musical and engaging, with every chance that audiences spontaneously clap, sing and dance!
Aaron released his album Nylon Man to stellar reviews in 2022, leading to lots of radio airplay and major features in music journals such as Blues and Soul.
Line-up: Aaron Liddard tenor sax, Giulia Marelli voice, Michael Searl bass, Isaac Asumadu keys Eric Young drums and Jimmy Norden drums.
“All Aaron Liddard’s music is beautiful” – International Jazz Vocalist Flora Purim
“…something new to jazz. A hybrid of myriad sources. One is reminded of other British musical polymaths such as saxophonist Peter King” – Jazz Journal
“Michael Brecker-like power and intensity… a highly uplifting experience” – The Jazz Mann
Fans of drumming will be magnetised to this gig – a sell-out at most venues on their UK tour!
