The full line-up has been revealed for A Celebration of Zoe’s Place – the unmissable one-night-only concert taking over Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena on Thursday 17th July 2025.
Joining the already star-studded bill that features Jamie Webster, The Zutons and Lightning Seeds are Liverpool indie favourites Circa Waves, who’ll perform a special version of There She Goes with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra and one of the UK’s biggest comedy talents Paul Smith, bringing his signature Scouse humour to the stage.

The night will begin with a powerful, specially written spoken word piece by rising local poet Joseph Roberts, setting the tone for an evening rooted in community, creativity and care.
Also taking to the stage are award-winning community group Cody Urban Dance and dancers from LIPA, shining a spotlight on Merseyside’s next generation of talent with inspiring live performances.
