ITV has announced it will air An Evening with Dua Lipa…
The extravaganza is set to air on ITV1, STV, ITVX and STV Player later this year. Recorded at London’s Royal Albert Hall on 17th October 2024, global superstar Dua Lipa reimagined her hit pop songs especially for the occasion, accompanied by the 53-piece Heritage Orchestra conducted by Ben Foster, a 14-strong choir and her 7-piece band.
The special will be interspersed with intimate interviews, in which Dua reflects on the pivotal moments that have shaped her life and illustrious career. The dazzling London show was critically acclaimed and guests were treated to a surprise duet of ‘Cold Heart’ with musical icon Elton John, the debut live performance of ‘Dance The Night’ taken from the Barbie soundtrack, as well as ‘Maria’, ‘Anything For Love’, and ‘End Of An Era’ from Dua’s latest album Radical Optimism, and more.
With four and five star reviews across The Times, Daily Telegraph, London Standard, Attitude, The Independent and more, Dua was crowned “Britain’s reigning pop star” who gave a performance packed with “pure pop perfection”, in an “impressive one-off show” which “displayed her talents in a new light”.
Katie Rawcliffe, Head of Entertainment & Daytime Commissioning ITV:
“We’re looking forward to bringing Dua’s exceptional Royal Albert Hall debut to audiences when it airs on ITV1 and ITVX later this year. It was such a special evening full of Dua’s top hits performed for the first time with The Heritage Orchestra, and none other than Elton John – it’s one not to be missed.”
An Evening with Dua Lipa will air on ITV1, ITVX, STV and STV Player soon.
