Robbie Williams is treating UK fans to two nights at Manchester Co-Op Live Arena this week as part of his ongoing tour.
Hot on the heels of the success of the biopic of his life Better Man, Robbie is part of the way through his UK and European tour – which is seeing him perform in Denmark, Netherlands, Germany, Spain, Austria among more.
The former Take That singer holds the Guinness World Record for his 2006 world tour, which sold more than 1.6 million tickets in a single day. He also holds the record attendance of 375,000 fans over three nights at his legendary Knebworth shows.
For fans attending Robbie’s Manchester concerts this week on Tuesday and Wednesday, June 10 and 11, there is an exciting band supporting the Angels singer.
Wigan’s own The Lottery Winners will play in support of Robbie for the two shows and it’s a huge moment for the band.

Frontman Thom Rylance has struck up quite the friendship with Rob, and he told the M.E.N. earlier this year what a big deal it is to be performing in support of the star. “This tour means so much to us. It’s absolutely massive – look at the venues,” said Thom.
“We’re going to throw everything we have at it and it’s going to turn us into superstars in our own right. We’re very grateful to Robbie for the opportunity.”
For fans attending the Robbie concert in Manchester, doors open at 18:30pm, with the support act due to start at 19:00pm before the main show from Robbie to start at around 8pm.
