A celebration of Arctic Monkeys

About this event

---

20th anniversary of "Whatever People Say I Am, That's What I'm Not" Sheffield’s Arctic Monkeys erupted onto the scene in 2006 with Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I’m Not, a blistering debut that blended kitchen-sink realism with post-punk swagger. Frontman Alex Turner’s razor-sharp lyricism and the band’s wiry guitar riffs redefined indie rock for a new generation. Over time, their sound evolved—from the desert noir of Humbug to the slick, hip-hop-inflected grooves of AM, and the cinematic sprawl of Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino. Bold, enigmatic, and relentlessly inventive, Arctic Monkeys remain one of Britain’s most influential modern rock bands—never content to repeat themselves, always a step ahead.
