Thousands Party as Scissor Sisters Sweep Into North Yorkshire for Spectacular Show
The band led thousands in singalong moments and closed with Filthy/Gorgeous and Music Is The Victim, as the venue’s 2026 run reaches 26 headline shows.
On Saturday, the American pop band Scissor Sisters headlined Scarborough Open Air Theatre, with frontman Jake Shears leading the band through their anthem "I Don't Feel Like Dancing" to a capacity crowd.
Marking 25 years since they began writing songs, Shears reflected on the group's "remarkable journey" during the show, noting they returned to the stage last summer after a hiatus.
Special guests Bimini and The Hidden Cameras opened the evening, with the performance featuring camp theatrics and tracks including "Let's Have A Kiki" and "Filthy/Gorgeous."
Featuring 26 headline shows, Scarborough Open Air Theatre's record-breaking 2026 programme continues to draw major music stars to the North Yorkshire coast.
Upcoming performances include Holly Johnson on Friday, August 14, followed by the Hollywood Vampires on Saturday, August 15, continuing the venue's summer concert series.
