Mariah Carey to perform at Sandringham | Ents & Arts News

Mariah Carey is set to perform an exclusive concert at a royal estate.

The US megastar is lined up to headline Heritage Live at Sandringham in Norfolk on 15 August.

Also set to perform on the same day of the festival are Nile Rodgers & Chic and British R&B group Eternal.

It will be the second UK show for the singer this summer, as she has also been confirmed as the headliner for the Brighton Pride Festival on 2 August.

The singer was previously lined up for the event in 2020, which was later cancelled due to the COVID pandemic.

Giles Cooper of Heritage Live Festivals, said: “We’re absolutely thrilled to bring one of the greatest pop artists of all time to the Royal Sandringham Estate for an exclusive UK headline show.

“Mariah Carey is an award-winner, a record-breaker, and an absolute global icon – this show will be historic.

“Mariah’s live show is second to none and with such a catalogue of huge hit singles, it’s going to be an incredible occasion. It will most definitely be an ‘I was there’ event that will live in all of our memories forever.”

Carey has 19 number one US singles to her name, more than any other solo artist in the history of the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
