Thousands of fans flocked to the city's Pitchcroft (site of the racecourse) to hear him belt out his greatest hits. The audience included people who had waited three years for the chance to see their idol perform. 

It was the second time recently that Sir Tom has performed in the area. In 2021 he was at Lakefest at Eastnor Castle, near Ledbury.

David Ray, who was at the concert with his friends said, "We're pretty excited, we booked this concert three years ago and we've travelled 80/90 miles to come to the concert."
