Originally broadcast on BBC1 in November 1977, this unforgettable charity concert was filmed at Wembley Arena—then known as the Empire Pool, Wembley. The original broadcast was edited down to just 50 minutes to fit between Are You Being Served? and Panorama.
The concert became legendary for Elton John’s announcement that he was retiring from live touring—a decision that, thankfully, he would eventually reverse.
Now, for the first time, this newly extended version brings together additional footage from the BBC archives, restoring more of Elton’s electrifying performances, including “Bennie and the Jets,” “Don’t Let the Sun Go Down on Me,” and “Don’t Go Breaking My Heart.”
Adding to this remarkable night, Elton is joined onstage by fellow music icon Stevie Wonder for a rare and unforgettable guest appearance.
A historic performance, an extraordinary collaboration, and a chance to experience Elton John at the height of his 1970s brilliance—now in an extended version never before seen.
