Bryan Adams thrills fans with first Coventry performance in two decades

Thousands welcomed Bryan Adams back to Coventry for his first show in the city for nearly two decades. More than 7,500 fans packed into the indoor arena at the Coventry Building Society Arena on Friday (May 17) to see the Canadian rocker perform his huge catalog of hits.

Fans arrived early and lined up outside for a chance to be at the front for a crowd-pleasing set which saw the singer perform all of his chart-topping hits including Heaven, (Everything I Do) I Do It For You, Run to You , When You’re Gone and Summer of ’69. He also performed tracks from his latest album, So Happy It Hurts, which was nominated for a Grammy.

The gig marked The Specials’ biggest indoor live event at the Coventry Building Society Arena since 2021.

Paul Michael, managing director of Coventry Building Society Arena, said: “Nights like this are what Coventry Building Society Arena is all about – incredible music and a brilliant atmosphere. It was great to welcome Bryan back to the venue after almost 20 years and we hope to welcome him again soon.

“We are now preparing to welcome Sean Paul as we continue our summer of music and grow our portfolio of live events.”
