The Classic Rock Show
If you felt the earth tremble slightly on Churchill Way, don’t worry, it’s just the seismic anticipation building for The Classic Rock Show, roaring into The Anvil on Friday, 6 February 2026. This isn’t just a concert; it’s a full-throttle celebration of rock’s golden age, delivered with note-for-note precision and a multi-million dollar sound and light spectacle that promises to shake the rafters.
From the thunderous riffs of AC/DC to the soaring harmonies of Fleetwood Mac, this show is a jukebox of legends. Expect a setlist that reads like a rock fan’s dream diary: Pink Floyd, Led Zeppelin, Queen, The Rolling Stones, The Eagles, The Beatles, The Who, Boston, Toto, Van Halen, and that’s just scratching the surface.
What sets this tour apart isn’t just the music—it’s the musicians. The Classic Rock Show assembles some of the UK’s finest players, each channeling the spirit and skill of the original icons. The evening builds to a show-stopping guitar duel that’s become the stuff of legend, leaving audiences breathless and begging for more.
For Basingstoke, this is more than a gig, it’s a cultural moment.
The Anvil, with its 1,400-seat capacity and reputation for hosting everything from panto to pop, transforms into a temple of rock for one unforgettable night. Whether you're a lifelong fan or a curious newcomer, this is your chance to experience the raw power and timeless appeal of classic rock in its purest form.
So dust off your leather jacket, warm up your air guitar, and get ready to sing every word. Because on 6 February, Basingstoke won’t just hear rock, it’ll feel it.
