The Bay City Rollers play the Orchard Theatre in Dartford on Thursday 14 January 2027, starting at 7.30pm. Dartford is the first night of the band’s January run, with the Palace Theatre in Southend the next evening and the Castle Theatre in Wellingborough the night after.

The set is built on the hits that made the band one of the biggest pop acts of the 1970s: Bye Bye Baby, Saturday Night and Shang-A-Lang among them. The promoter, Artistes International Management, calls it “an evening of singalong favourites and feel-good nostalgia”, whether you remember “the excitement of the original Rollermania era or simply love the music of the 70s”.

Who is in the band now

The tour’s own billing says the band sold more than 300 million records, and that Rollermania “swept across the globe with legions of devoted fans kitted out in their trademark tartan”. Half a century on, Stuart “Woody” Wood, one of the original Classic five, still leads the group with what the promoter describes as “a fantastic and energetic new line-up”.

The band released a studio album, Keep on Rollin’, in 2024. It mixes new songs with re-recorded versions of some of the old hits. The promoter’s advice for the night: “dig out your tartan and Keep on Rollin’ with the Bay City Rollers!”
