Dire Straits fans, Sun Arena are bringing you a once in a lifetime concert experience this October. Come and see veteran Dire Straits band members Chris White and Chris Whitten perform at Time Square. They will be here for one night only, so don’t miss it!

What Is It?

If there is only one rock concert you attend in 2019, this should be it. Come and experience a once in a lifetime experience at Time Square Sun Arena in Pretoria. Veteran Dire Straits members Chris White and Chris Whitten are headed to our shores for a one-night only international tour!

“…What an honour to have these iconic artists on our stage. This is a once in a lifetime experience,” says Time Square’s General Manager, Brett Hoppé.

Young and old Dire Straits fans can come and hear their favourite hits performed live. Joining White and Whitten on stage to perform the Dire Straits International Tour is frontman Terence Reis. Bringing his own talent, personality and experience to the Dire Straits discography, Reis still honours former lead singer Mark Knopfler in his performances.

“When I was first approached to put together a band to play the Dire Straits songs at the Albert Hall, I didn’t believe it would be possible to find someone who would be able to stand in Mark’s shoes without sounding like an imposter. I was wrong. In Terence Reis, I think we may have found the only person on the planet that is able to play and sing like Mark, but maintain his own integrity and identity,” Chris White says.

The Dire Straits accompanying band also comprises some of finest professional musicians the UK has to offer. Between them, they have worked with the likes of Elton John, Paul McCartney, Eric Clapton, Tina Turner, Mick Jagger, George Michael, The Killers and many more. You will be delighted as Reis, White and Whitten perform evergreen hits such as “Money For Nothing”, “Sultans of Swing”, “Walk of Life”, and many other classics.

Don’t miss out on this epic musical journey through time. After all, with a record 120 million albums sold, Dire Straits is undoubtedly one of the most successful rock bands of our time and are well worth seeing live. Get your tickets now!
