Event description

The Welsh-born singer TOM JONES will be the headliner of this year's Benátská!-festival. Jones has released dotzens of albums and sold more than 100.000.000 copies. His greatest hits - which will all be heard at the festival - include "Green Green Grass of Home", "Sex Bomb", "Mama Told Me Not to Come" or "You Can Leave Your Hat On". The 90 minutes-long concert will include a 9-piece band as well as background singers. The overhelming reviews of his last concerts are proving that the 76-year-old is still full of energy.
