You, your bestie and 90's icon Natalie Imbruglia at a show money can't buy... sounds pretty incredible, right? There’re 10 pairs of tickets up for grabs and every SMARTY customer has the chance to enter. Try your luck below.
Tell me more
This money-can’t-buy experience will take place at Virgin Radio's Sunset Sessions with SMARTY on Friday 29th September.
Hosted by drivetime legend Ricky Wilson, Natalie Imbruglia will perform an honest, intimate and stripped back set of her biggest and best hits. This exclusive performance will be set at the top of the NewsUK tower in London as the sun sets across the city – what an experience, right?
But hurry, the competition closing date is just around the corner…
Fancy it?
To enter you’ll need to respond below, telling us “What has been your favourite live gig and why?” We can’t wait to read your answers.
UPDATE - COMPETITION CLOSED
The competition is now closed, and we will make the draw for the winners from all the eligible entries and contact them in the next 24 hours.
So, keep your fingers crossed and an eye on your email inbox. Make sure you check your spam folders too, just in case.
Thanks to everyone who contributed some brilliant entries. We had over 560 posts and have had an amazingly diverse range of response, from Christian festivals to back-room-of-a-pub gigs, from massive stadium concerts to someone’s wedding. It’s been brilliant reading them all. Thank you.
And it’s never too late to see live music; go to a big venue, visit a festival, or just see what your local arts’ centre has on. You never know what you’re going to find.
Keep up the great work everyone; the SMARTY Community belongs to us all and succeeds because of your great contributions.
We were delighted to welcome SMARTY competition winners to watch this intimate performance with Drivetime host Ricky Wilson hosting the event.

It would have to be a set, in a local pub, from an 80's Cover Band called 6 Go Mad back in 2018 ... One of the lead singers was a work colleague and he was going to use the 'introduce/thanks to the band' section at the end of the set in order to surprise his girlfriend, the other lead singer, with a marriage proposal ... Another work colleague and i were the ONLY people who knew this was going to happen and we were charged with bringing the ring to the gig and sneaking it to him at the appropriate moment during their final song Sweet Child O' Mine ... The whole set had been excellent (as usual) and the place was really buzzing, but it hit totally new levels when he made the proposal ... She (of course) said yes and the band struck up again and began finishing off the song ... The atmosphere became so electric during those final moments that even Guns N Roses themselves couldn't have finished it off any better ... There are videos of that finale and it still induces goosebumps as you watch it !?!

Bruce Springsteen and the E-street band live in Monza 2023. Great weekend in Italy, great music that I have enjoyed as a kid growing up and now have had the chance to see them live for the first time.

Hey there, my favourite live performance was Synthony in the domain, in Auckland, New Zealand. The music is a mix of electronic dance music with a live orchestra, DJ’s, vocalists, and crazy, consuming visuals.
Attendees ranged in all ages, backgrounds and music tastes. The vibe was amazing, seeing music bring all these different people together in one place. It felt like the domain was our church all celebrating a love for the beauty of music.

I was lucky enough to be at Nirvana third to last ever concert in Rome, Italy in February 1994. Kurt Cobain simply stood still at his microphone the whole time singing and playing guitar and yet I couldn't take my eyes off of him, so magnetic was his performance. I've seen hundreds of concerts after that but it still stands like the best one

Royal Blood, supported by The Amazons, at NIA. It wasn't long after Taylor's passing so every Foo's song (over the PA or played by the bands) was sung loud and with rock and roll passion 🤘
