Fab 40

To celebrate our 40th birthday, we're throwing the ultimate musical party - The Fab 40! Across three nights, Leo Andrews takes you on a journey through the biggest hits from every year since 1985. It's a nostalgic ride packed with the songs that defined our lives, the artists who shaped the charts, and the memories that make it all matter.

From a-ha's Take On Me kicking things off in 1985, to Benson Boone's Beautiful Things rounding out 2024, every track has earned its place - whether it was the anthem of a summer, the soundtrack to a generation, or just that song you can't help but sing along to. Expect stories, surprises, and a few of Leo's trademark one-liners as we relive four decades of pure pop gold.

Three nights, forty songs, endless memories - The Fab 40 is the sound of 40 years of hits, and we can't wait to share it with you.
