Gloucester Rugby have also developed a reputation for hosting live music concerts during the close season. Since May 2011, when The Wanted became the first band to perform live at Kingsholm, the stadium has hosted concerts by the likes of Sir Elton John, Jess Glynne, McFly, Lionel Richie and Madness. Sir Tom Jones has even played at Kingsholm on two separate occasions! However, the biggest concert held at the stadium was in June 2017 when Little Mix attracted a sell-out crowd of 20,000. Olly Murs has announced a concert at Kingsholm on Friday 7 June 2019.

The Big Dug & Directors Box are both on the half way line with magnificent views over Kingsholm, giving you a great reminder of being at the home of a Gloucester Rugby. The suite has balcony access for your refreshments and take in the inspiration of a premiership club.

    Great day out, parking and exit back to the motorway was brilliant. Inside the stadium. The atmosphere was superb, and on field it was a great game which we enjoyed very much. My only negative was the group of children sitting next to us aged around 8 to 11. Constantly in and out and standing up and running about, with 3 dad's out for a boozy day. I know you can not choose who buys the seat next to you but it took the shine off the day for us and the people behind them
