World famous singer on stage in August.
The Sporting d'Ete is drawing up its program for summer and the superstar on this year's list is Elton John. Outrageous and flamboyant, the 70s legend is to entertain us over 5 nights, from 2nd to 6th August.
With 50 hits under his belt, Sir Elton is a member of the pop aristocracy. He's sold more than 250 million records and has won numerous awards for his songs. Born in the UK, he's been a lifelong fan and part owner of Watford football club and now owns a property in neighbouring town Nice. Since the late 1980s he's been heavily involved in the fight against AIDS, establishing the Elton John AIDS Foundation in 1992 to fund prevention programs. As recognition for his charitable work, Sir Elton was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II in 1998.
Tickets cost 420 euros for both dinner and concert, and go on sale tomorrow.
