BBC Children in Need Rocks

A very special concert staged at the Royal Albert Hall to honour legendary broadcaster and the inspirational figurehead of BBC Children in Need, Sir Terry Wogan. Music that Sir Terry loved or had a connection with is at the heart of this celebration and is performed by artists including Take That, Ellie Goulding, Olly Murs, Gregory Porter, Michael Ball, Alfie Boe, Rick Astley, Beverley Knight, Alexander Armstrong, The Vamps, Ward Thomas and Shaun Escoffery.

The concert, hosted by Fearne Cotton and Greg James, also includes Children in Need appeal films and archive depicting Sir Terry's incredible broadcasting career, including a chance to relive one of the classic Radio 2 Janet and John stories accompanied by special illustrations created by Tony Ross. The BBC Concert Orchestra, the Crouch End Festival Chorus and the Brighouse and Rastrick Band are on hand to accompany performances.

The concert is raising money for BBC Children in Need - the charity that Sir Terry held so closely to his heart and which, with his invaluable support and dedication for more than thirty years, has raised more than £840 million for disadvantaged children and young people across the UK.

A-ha, Bananarama, Boy George, Erasure, Europe, Imagination Featuring Leee John, Jason Donovan, Katrina from Katrina & The Waves, Louisa Johnson, Mica Paris, Nick Heyward, OMD and UB40 featuring Ali, Astro and Mickey, will take to the stage at The SSE Arena, Wembley to perform some of the most iconic hits from the 1980s.

The star-studded line up will transport viewers back to the era in a glittering celebration of the decade in which BBC Children in Need's first major appeal took place.

Hosted by Fearne Cotton and Sara Cox, with Roman Kemp capturing all the excitement backstage, the show will also share moving stories from some of the children and young people who have been supported by projects funded by BBC Children in Need, as the charity aims to raise more money to help change young lives through this year's Appeal.

George Ezra, Jess Glynne, Nile Rodgers & CHIC, Olly Murs, Rita Ora, Sir Rod Stewart - and more names yet to be announced - will take to the stage at The SSE Arena, Wembley, for Children in Need Rocks 2018.

The Stars will perform current tracks as well as a surprising cover or one of their classic hits, in a spectacular concert in aid of BBC Children in Need.

Hosted by Fearne Cotton and Clara Amfo the show will also share moving stories from some of the children and young people experiencing disadvantage around the UK who have been supported by projects funded by BBC Children in Need, as the charity raises money for the good cause.
