Christine and the Queens brings his Meltdown to a powerful conclusion.
Meltdown Festival is the UK's longest-running artist-curated music festival, with a globally recognised music icon in charge of its programme each year. Past curators have included David Bowie, Nile Rodgers, and The Cure's Robert Smith. This year, genre-bending pop star and queer icon Christine and the Queens showcased his creative vision through concerts, activities, and other events.
The festival at the Southbank Centre will come to a close with a pair of concerts by the French singer-songwriter on 17 and 18 June. With Christine and the Queens having just released a critically lauded new album, Meltdown offers a unique chance to catch the seminal contemporary artist at the peak of his powers. The headline shows will be accompanied by performances by other artists, talks, and more.
