The John Otway Band at The Crescent – York, United Kingdom

Get your tickets to see The John Otway Band in York, United Kingdom. Happening on Friday, January 16, 2026 at The Crescent. Doors open at 7:30 PM.

Otway’s philosophy is simple: “When you do a great gig, you want to have a beer with the audience afterwards. I’d feel really disappointed if I was kept away from the party.”
The Aylesbury anarchist returns exactly a year after his sold-out show here!
Fans of ‘Rock and Roll’s Biggest Failure’ – equal parts DIY punk and comedy – have taken him from Top of the Pops to Cannes across 5,000 gigs and stunts (how about the ‘pub ‘tour’ where he played two songs in one pub, then ran across the street and played two more).
Otway’s career has been a seat-of-the-pants journey that started with a nine-year-old boy’s pop star obsession and, yes, he’s still with the same band he’s had since dinosaurs roamed the earth. Perfectly synced to John’s humour and razor-like observant wit, complimenting the show, trading remarks and insults.
Ohhhhh go on, treat yourself again…
