Durham County Cricket Club will welcome a record crowd through the gates of Emirates Riverside tomorrow night (June 9) as Sir Rod Stewart takes to the stage to perform the Hits 2017 concert.

The gig is set to become the biggest ever held at Emirates Riverside and the Chester le Street venue is getting ready as preparations continue to set up the stage, seating, bar areas and everything else required for the big day.

Durham CCC would advise concert attendees to arrive early to Emirates Riverside as there will be increased security measures taking place at each entrance point.
