March 21-27, 2022

Teenage Cancer Trust at the Royal Albert Hall is back for 2022 - and not a moment too soon.

Raising money for the charity, the iconic concert series has featured the greatest music and comedy for two decades, driven by Teenage Cancer Trust honorary patron and The Who icon, Roger Daltrey.

But in 2020, just as the concerts were about to celebrate 20 years of legendary moments, Covid-19 shut them down.

2021 went the same way, so it’s a more than welcome return for the vital charity event.
