THE BILLY JOEL SONGBOOK AT THE
LONDON PALLADIUM
Following widespread acclaim and a
string of sold-out performances across
the UK and Europe, acclaimed singersongwriter and pianist Elio Pace will
bring his award-winning show, The Billy
Joel Songbook, to London’s iconic
London Palladium on 18 March.
The London performance is set to be
a major highlight of the newly extended
UK and Ireland tour, added after
overwhelming public demand saw the
original 2025 dates sell out. Over the
past three years, the production has
played more than 50 sold-out venues
nationwide, building a reputation as one
of the most authentic and exhilarating
tributes to the music of Billy Joel.
Billed as the greatest love letter to
Joel’s music, the show takes audiences
on a journey through five decades of
chart-topping hits. Pace and his
exceptional live band perform more than
30 songs from Joel’s catalogue of 82
singles, capturing the energy, emotion
and musicianship that have defined the
American icon’s career. Audiences at the
London Palladium can expect to hear
beloved classics including ‘The Longest
Time’, ‘She’s Always A Woman’, ‘An
Innocent Man’, ‘Uptown Girl’, ‘Tell Her
About It’, ‘The River of Dreams’, ‘We
Didn’t Start The Fire’ and ‘Piano Man’.
Earlier this year, a special
performance recorded at the Bloomsbury
Theatre on Joel’s 75th birthday was
broadcast via BBC Sounds, further
cementing the show’s growing acclaim.
Pace, who was praised by the late
broadcaster Terry Wogan as ‘only
sensational’, continues to captivate
audiences with his remarkable piano
skills and commanding stage presence.
For London fans, the 18 March date
promises an unforgettable evening
celebrating one of the greatest
songbooks in popular music.
