George Harrison Tributes

12th Jun 2009

An unprecendented series of Tributes are being held for the incomparable George Harrison in his home town of Liverpool.

On August 1st – the anniversary of George's trailblazing Concerts for Bangladesh, the first Charity Concert of its kind, fourteen years before Live Aid – two Concerts are being held in the Concert Room at St George's Hall, in the heart of Liverpool. Musicians are flying in from round the globe simply to be part of the Tributes to George.

Also, being unveiled the same day in St George's Hall, is a unique exhibition of the largest collection of George memorabilia assembled for public viewing to date in the world. Entry to this is Free, unlike most things in life.

The Concert tickets are nominally priced at £10 (concessions afternoons only £7) from link and in person at The Beatle Shop in Mathew Street. The two performances are at 3.30 pm and 8 pm.

None of the events are funded, please support them wholeheartedly as any profits are being donated to George's own Charity, The Material World Charitable Foundation.
