It’s been a busy June for global superstar Diana Ross. She kicked off the month with a headline appearance at the BBC’s Platinum Party at the Palace, celebrating the Queen's 70-year jubilee. The soul sensation then appeared at Glastonbury festival in the Sunday afternoon Legends slot.

To top off an incredible June, Diana Ross heads to County Durham for a special set as part of her Thank You Summer 2022 tour. She is set to play her biggest hits on 29 June in front of a North East crowd in the beautiful setting of Durham County Cricket Club in Chester le Street, on Wednesday 29th June.

Diana Ross is one of the most successful recording artists and entertainers of all time, helping to shape the sound of popular music. In the 1960s she reigned as the Queen of Motown, leading The Supremes to chart dominance with hits such as Baby Love, Stop! In the Name of Love, and You Keep Me Hangin’ On.

At the Grammy Awards this year, Ross was honoured with a special gong to mark her 75th birthday and her enormous contributions to music. She was also handed a Lifetime Achievement Grammy in 2012 for her lengthy career, which began when she joined The Primettes aged just 15 years old.

Be part of the live action, soak up the atmosphere and don’t miss out on an amazing opportunity to see the icon perform.

Diana Ross will perform at Durham Cricket, Riverside on 29 June 2022.
