I was lucky enough to be among the tens of thousands of fans who packed into the Stadium of Light on Friday night to see Pink in concert.

A truly fearless performer, she opened the show by dropping spectacularly from a box suspended above the crowd, before blasting through a series of hits and finishing dramatically by soaring across the audience on a high wire. It was absolutely fantastic and she was a real entertainer.

Congratulations to everyone involved in getting the concert to Sunderland and for making it such a huge success.

With hugely popular and successful shows from Take That, Oasis and now Pink in Sunderland, I’m sure we can look forward to some more big names in the future.
