Die Show wird auf den 02.12.2022 verschoben, bereits gekaufte Tickets behalten ihre Gültigkeit!

Simply Red announced today that their European arena tour dates have been re-scheduled to 2022. Additionally, they have added 3 new shows to the run, including a show at  STADTHALLE in GRAZ on 4.12.2022  and special guest Mica Paris will join the tour as the opening act.

Mick Hucknall can’t wait to get back onstage. “ I’ve spent most of my life going out and singing for people, so it feels strange not to have that.” he said.” I miss being able to express myself. It’s going to be wonderfully inspiring when people can go and see bands again. I can’t wait.”

Hailed as one of the most successful live acts ever to come out of the UK, they will be firing on all cylinders delivering their all-time classic hits from a stellar career, such as ‘Stars’, ‘Holding Back The Years’, ‘Fairground’ and ‘Money’s Too Tight To Mention’, as well as some raw and soulful new grooves.

Tickets purchased for the original shows will be honoured at the 2022 shows. For any other ticket questions, please contact your point of purchase.

Simply Red Anfang Dezember 2 Mal live in Österreich

2019 erschien das Simply Red -Album "Blue Eyed Soul" , danach sollte die Band auf große Konzert-Tour gehen. Corona machte nicht nur ihnen bekanntlich hier einen Strich durch die Rechnung – aber Anfang Dezember ist es endlich soweit und die heißersehnten Konzerte in Wien und Graz stehen an.

Seit die Band 1985 mit ihrer unwiderstehlichen Interpretation des Songs der Valentine Brothers "Money's too tight to mention" in der Musikszene in Erscheinung getreten sind, haben sie mehrere Generationen mit ihrer Musik nachhaltig beeinflusst. Ihre Alben wurden zu Meilensteinen der Musikgeschichte und ihre zahlreichen Hits haben nicht zuletzt wegen Mick Hucknalls unverkennbarer Stimme einen sehr hohen Wiedererkennungswert erreicht.

Mit 60 Millionen verkauften Alben weltweit und Songs wie "If you don't know me by now", "Something got me started", "The right thing", "Holding back the years", "Stars", "Fairground", "The air that I breathe", "Sunrise" und viele mehr, haben Simply Red einen zeitlosen Katalog an Hits erschaffen.

Nach 40 Jahren Erfahrung im Musikbusiness wollte Mick Hucknall, Mastermind hinter Simply Red, nun mit dem 2019er Album etwas schaffen, das auf die Kernstärke seiner fantastischen Band zugeschnitten ist: "Ich habe mich gefragt, was die Jungs Nacht für Nacht wirklich gerne spielen würden. Ich möchte, dass sie Spaß am Spielen haben, dass die Menschenmassen aufstehen und sich bewegen! Es geht darum, den Groove einzufangen.“

Recent tour reviews

Fantastic show worth the trip over from the states. Mick’s voice and performance was just as good as when he was young. We would do it again in a heart beat, wish they’d tour the United States, or maybe do one of the wildly Popular music cruises

Report as inappropriate

Thursday 14th June 2016, Edinburgh Castle. Great gig, Mick's voice is amazing and still as powerful and soulful as ever, Band were also fab. All the best songs, real crowd pleasers - would delicately see them again.

A beautifully played music concert, in a poorly managed commercial scheme:

Music: 10/10

Mick Hucknall has excelled once again, communicating well with the audience, with his great songs, lyrics and his voice still in great shape. The excellent and talented Simply Red band conveys a great deal of emotion with great musical arrangements, all wrapped up in a tight, engaging rhythm, never boring! To top it up, the sound quality was very good, with low distortion and ear-friendly volume levels.

Organization and venue: 3/10

The Citibank Hall and the commercial production team in São Paulo have done an unacceptable job, selling more (expensive) tickets than the place can handle in comfort and security. Parking lot overflowed, blocking Marginal Pinheiros avenue, people took forever to get in/out. Inside the venue, an enormous crowd stood in all entrances and exits, making it impossible to get a drink or go to the restroom and return. Citibank Hall employees ignored it all and didn't move to help organize people or cars. Police and city traffic officials were also absent, or invisible.

Mick Hucknall formed Simply Red in 1985 working-class Manchester, and enjoyed early success with first single ‘Money’s Too Tight To Mention’ and the Brit Award-nominated album ‘Picture Book’ (the first of 13 nominations, and 3 Brit Award wins). This was followed by a decade of superstardom and global hits. Today Simply Red continue to sell out tours across the globe. Their live show is renowned for its exceptional quality, with Mick Hucknall long-established as one of the great vocalists of contemporary music.

Your 48-hour tour guide of Moscow this winter!

9 am – Visit the Red Square 

Christmas market on Red Square

The first thing that every tourist should do by default is visit the very heart of Moscow – it’s main and most beautiful (which ‘krasnaya’ actually meant in Old Russian) square! 

There are several ways to explore it:

• Take a selfie with Spasskaya Tower
• Have a warm drink at the Christmas market (which lasts until mid-January)
• Visit Lenin’s Mausoleum
• Shop in the gorgeous adjacent GUM department store
• Visit St. Basil’s Cathedral (and learn that it’s actually several churches under one roof).           

11 am – It’s Kremlin time! 

Inside the Moscow Kremlin

Entering the Kremlin is, actually, a bit of a quest, as it’s a presidential facility with no general access. You need to buy a ticket or, better still, book a guided tour. Inside the Kremlin’s walls, you will find ancient cathedrals, in which Russian tsars used to be crowned and buried, as well as explore the magnificent architecture of the Kremlin that reflects the rich history of the country. And, finally, you could also make a quick visit to the Moscow Kremlin Museums and admire artifacts from various Russian tsarist eras: carriages, thrones, crowns and the most incredible armory and jewelry. 

For more information, visit the official website of the Kremlin . It’s open from 10 am to 5 pm (and it’s closed on Thursdays) in winter.

2 pm – Watch the changing of the Guard

The honor guard at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier

A very spectacular (and free) thing to do is watch how the honor guard does their ceremonial change at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier and the Eternal Flame, situated in Alexander Garden, right next to the Kremlin wall. Every hour, from 8 am to 8 pm, the 1st Company of the Kremlin (Presidential) Regiment performs this rather old and beautiful tradition. But, be warned, it's often overcrowded. 

3 pm – Enjoy a green oasis just in the center

Florarium in Zaryadye

Just a few steps from the Red Square, you will find the fabulous Zaryadye park. Opened in 2017, it is designed by renowned American architect bureau ‘Diller Scofidio + Renfro’. You can walk among the very cozy botanical decorations and explore Russia’s climate zones, as each of them is represented in dedicated areas, complete with flora from those zones.

The floating bridge in Zaryadye Park

The park also has an underground museum, an “ice cave” and a 3D cinema, where you can take part in a virtual adventure – a flight over Moscow! However, the piece de resistance is a floating boomerang bridge over the Moskva River, one of the best places to take a selfie.

You can also grab a quick lunch or relax with a cup of coffee or tea in the park.

7 pm – Arrange a ballet night

The Bolshoi Theater

Of course, the most fancy way to finish your day in Moscow would be to go to the ballet at the Bolshoi Theater (in a perfect world, to see ‘The Nutcracker’!). However, getting tickets to the Bolshoi is not an easy task and should be done well in advance of your visit. 

But, don’t be upset if you don’t manage to get tickets to the Bolshoi. Moscow has dozens of other options to see a ballet (or opera). No less brilliant performances can be seen in the Stanislavsky and Nemirovich-Danchenko Music Theater or in The State Kremlin Palace (by the way, this is another way to get a quick glimpse inside the Kremlin!).

10:30 pm – Have a late dinner in a fancy restaurant

Dr Zhivago restaurant

There are not so many other cities with such a big choice of restaurants in a range of tastes and styles. In 2021, the authoritative Michelin guide announced their pick of the best of Moscow’s restaurants. And here’s our guide to all the places with Russian cuisine for any budget. But, if you happen to be in the area of the Bolshoi or Nemirovich-Danchenko Theater, then ‘Dr. Zhivago’ would definitely be a nice option (and it’s open around the clock).

DAY 2 

9 am – grab a moscow coffee.

Winter festivities mood in Moscow

Moscow is definitely a coffee city! You can find coffee shops on every corner and they all offer a huge range of drinks. Try a ‘raf’ coffee, a sweet, creamy drink that was created in Russia, or dare to pick one of the very unusual offers, like cheese coffee or a Soviet candy style one (check out our coffee guide here ).

10 am – Take a river cruise

Winter boating along the Moskva River

Another exciting way to explore Moscow is to observe it from the water. Boats cruise along the Moskva River all year round. Most begin their route from the Hotel Ukraine, one of Stalin's ‘Seven Sister’ skyscrapers, and will bring you back to the same spot after passing the medieval Novodevichy Convent, Moscow State University and Luzhniki Stadium, the Cathedral of Christ the Saviour and giant monument to Peter the Great and many other sightseeings. 

It’s always at optimum temperature inside the boat, which also has huge panoramic windows. Select boats also offer a full dining experience, so it is also a nice place to have breakfast or lunch.

If you are not a water person, then discover other, unusual sides of Moscow – pick one of the activities we’ve prepared for you here ! 

1 pm – Visit ‘Russia’ Expo and taste a bunch of Russian regional cuisines

Russia Expo at VDNKh

Until April 2024, the Soviet-era VDNKh exhibition park is hosting the huge ‘Russia’ expo, with tons of activities and expositions devoted to Russia, its culture, science and nature. Check out our special guide on what to do there!  

An entire ‘House of Russian Cuisine’ has been opened at the expo. You will find 15 food stands with flagship dishes from Kamchatka, Siberia, Karelia and other regions of Russia. Imagine trying a range of cuisines and dishes in one place without even having to travel anywhere, be it Altai pelmeni, Tula kalach or Caucasian pies! A perfect place to grab some lunch.

House of Russian cuisines at VDNKh

The VDNKh exhibition park is a great place to visit, in general! Its pavilions are the perfect example of Stalinit Empire style architecture and you can almost feel as if you’ve traveled back in time! You will also find several interesting museums in the park – devoted to space exploration, Russian history and even a ‘Special Purpose Garage’, which showcases the various vehicles used by the country’s leaders. 

'Sun of Moscow' wheel

And, finally, you can ride Europe's tallest panoramic wheel – ‘Sun of Moscow’ – that will give you panoramic views of the city – from a height of 140 meters!

5 pm – Ice skate with view & mulled wine

Ice skating rink on Red Square (GUM department store on the background)

Ice skating is one of the most popular and affordable activities in Moscow. There are several great ice skating rinks in picturesque locations that are open all winter long. One of the biggest rinks in Europe is also at the aforementioned VDNKh or you can visit the one in Gorky Park, another very popular Moscow spot, or the small, but fancy rink – right on Red Square! 

All the parks offer ice skate rental, so the only things you need are warm clothes, a charged phone to record your memories and a good mood!  Moscow also gets dark at 4:30 pm in winter and hundreds of lights are switched on, turning the city into a giant fairy tale! 

A mulled wine with a view

And, if you are not a sports person, we’ve picked several other unusual activities that you could do in Moscow instead. For example, did you know that there is an entire district of dacha (countryside) houses, just 10 minutes from the center, surrounded by giant new highrises? How about taking a stroll there and feeling the early Soviet atmosphere?

8 pm – Warm up & laugh out loud

After all these outdoor activities, what could be better than a warm cozy bar with a hot drink and nice company? Moscow is a city full of entertainment for all tastes. So, if you know the Russian language or want to practice it, go to a theater or catch a stand-up comedy show. Moscow even has comedy shows in English, where you can hear both Russians speaking fluent English or foreigners (including Brits and Americans) who live in Russia speaking in broken or heavily-accented Russian (Check their show dates on the ‘ Moscow English Comedy ’ Telegram channel)!

11 pm – Finish by partying the night away!

Propaganda club in Moscow

Moscow never sleeps, as you might have heard. Which means there are plenty of bars and nightclubs where you can have a drink (or two or three; be sure to check out how Russians make Black Russian and White Russian cocktails) and chat with incredibly different people. Have fun and don’t miss your flight (or miss it and stay longer in the best city in the world!)!

That's it! See you soon in Moscow

Frequently Asked Questions

Where do the most winter tourists go.

Skiing is what most people do. Aspen is the best place I have ever been. It's the place you will find all of the rich. They are always there because they want ski. It's wonderful when you have money. There is no need to worry.

Winter sports are not limited to the elite. Everyone enjoys skiing. It's both relaxing and enjoyable. You can spend time with your family and friends. If you are lucky, you might catch a glimpse at a celebrity.

Many winter destinations are available. These include Vail, Colorado; Aspen, Colorado; Park City (Utah); and Lake Tahoe (California). These locations offer fantastic skiing and snowboarding. Canada has many great ski resorts that are more affordable if you are looking for something more economical. You should do your research before you make a decision about which destination to choose.

Which five cities are the best to visit in winter?

• Paris, France
• Vienna, Austria
• New York City USA
• Quebec City, Canada
• Tokyo, Japan

Which place is best to spend winter time in the US?

Three distinct areas in the United States are where there is more snowfall in winter. Each region provides a different experience for snowboarders as well as skiers.

Mt. Brighton (Michigan), Crystal Mountain Resort (Minnesota), and Breckenridge Ski Resort (Colorado).

Many small towns and villages are located in the Northeast, like Stowe (Vermont), or Killington (VT).

Finally, in the Pacific Northwest you will find WhistlerBlackcomb (British Columbia), and Sun Valley (Idaho).

The Midwest has some of the best ski resorts in America. These resorts offer a variety of trails for all skill levels, as well as other winter activities such as snowshoeing and ice skating. The Midwest offers more affordable lodging than other regions.

The Northeast is famously known for its smaller, more intimate skiing resorts. This region is also home to some of the best powder skiing in the country. The Northeast is where you should go if you want to experience true winter wonderland.

The Pacific Northwest offers a completely different experience in winter. Here, you'll find large ski resorts with a variety of trails, as well as smaller, more secluded resorts. You will find some of America's best backcountry skiers in the Pacific Northwest.

Winter travel does not require you to have a lot money. One option is to stay in one or more of the numerous hostels that are scattered throughout major cities like New York City and San Francisco.

Most hostels offer dormitory beds. These beds are affordable, so they won’t break the bank. And if you book early enough, you might be able to snag a bed right next to the door.

A hotel is the best option if you are looking to spend a lot. You can book a hotel with private rooms or breakfast. Book through Priceline, Airbnb or other sites to save even more.
