Hot on the heels of their rip-roaring UK & Ireland arena tour with Judas Priest and Saxon, we’re thrilled to confirm that Uriah Heep will headline Planet Rockstock 2024.

Mick Box, Bernie Shaw, Phil Lanzon, Russell Gilbrook and Dave Rimmer will bring The Bernie Marsden Stage, and the entire Rockstock weekend, to an emphatic close on Sunday 1st December 2024.

Uriah Heep’s eagerly-awaited Planet Rockstock performance comes five years after their last triumphant headline slot at Trecco Bay.

The legendary band also headlined the inaugural Planet Rockstock in Great Yarmouth way back in 2013 – a set that’s firmly entrenched in Rockstock folklore.

A good pal of Planet Rock, Mick Box also joined us for the opening Curry Night last year where he regaled stories from his half-century career with Paul Anthony.
