Colchester is set to be treated to a night of classic rock as Money for Nothing, the acclaimed Dire Straits tribute band, take to the stage on Sunday 1 November. Kicking off at 7:30pm, the performance promises to transport audiences back to the heyday of the iconic British band. Since their formation in 2000, Money for Nothing have dedicated themselves to faithfully recreating the distinctive sound and electrifying live energy of Dire Straits.

The set draws on the band’s entire body of work, from early hits to later favourites, aiming to capture the distinctive sound and live energy that defined Dire Straits.
