A York date built around the singles

The York Barbican concert is being billed around Kim Wilde’s singles, which gives the evening a clear shape for longtime listeners. The source highlights the songs that made her one of the defining British pop voices of the 1980s, including “Kids In America”, “Chequered Love”, “Cambodia”, “You Keep Me Hangin’ On”, “You Came”, “Never Trust A Stranger” and “Four Letter Word”.

That is a broad span for one tour date. “Kids In America” introduced Wilde to a global audience in 1981, while “You Keep Me Hangin’ On” reached number one in the United States. The Visit York listing also notes a career total of more than 30 million record sales across 15 albums.

Tiffany is listed as the very special guest for the York show. The source does not give a separate set time or running order, so attendees should treat the full 6:30pm to 11:00pm window as the confirmed timing for the event.

From 80s hits to CLOSER

The concert is not framed only as a nostalgia stop. The event information points to CLOSER, Wilde’s 2025 album, described in the source as a sister album to CLOSE from 1988. Two Radio 2 hit singles from CLOSER are named in the listing: “Trail Of Destruction” and “Midnight Train”.

The same source notes that the album received Radio 2 album of the week and record of the week recognition, followed by an invitation for Wilde to perform in the BBC Radio 2 Piano Room. That newer material gives the York date a wider appeal than a simple greatest-hits run-through, particularly for listeners who have followed her recent releases as well as her 1980s chart period.

Wilde’s live history also sits behind the event. The listing recalls that she supported Michael Jackson on the European leg of his Bad tour, playing to more than 2 million people over five months, and also supported David Bowie across Europe on his 1990 Greatest Hits stadium tour.

VIP seats and booking status

Visit York’s event page states that VIP seats are available for the York Barbican date. The listed VIP package includes best available seats, a laminate and a signed poster.

No ticket price is included in the supplied source text, and no accessibility, transport or food details are provided in the event brief. The venue contact email shown in the source is info@yorkbarbican.co.uk.

The confirmed listing places the concert at York Barbican on Sunday, 28 March 2027, from 6:30pm to 11:00pm, with the source showing both “Visit our website” and “Book Tickets” options.
