Sherwood Pines live concert line-up is a 'breath' of fresh air — as Sting set for summer show

Sherwood Pines had been one of the regular venues for Forestry England’s nationwide series of summer concerts, called Forest Live, over recent years.

Previously, Forest Live has brought Sherwood Pines to life with stunning performances from iconic artists and household names such as Tom Jones, UB40, Jessie J, Paul Weller, Olly Murs, Elbow and Gary Barlow.

However, after the planned 2020 shows were cancelled due to the coronavirus pandemic, it was also announced Sherwood Pines would take 2021 off the set list too.

But organisers have since shared the “exciting” news of a big return for live music at UK forestry venues – including Sherwood Pines.

Sting and Nile Rodgers & Chic have been announced for Forest Live 2024.

A pre-sale for subscribers to Forest Live will take place on Thursday, November 2 at 9am.

It is suggested that music fans create or log into their account by 5pm Wednesday, October 1, in case a password reset is needed.

After the pre-sale, tickets will go on general sale from 9am on Friday, November 3.

Phone booking is not available for pre-sale.
