British reggae legends UB40 will be the guest performers at the Pine Cliffs Summer Gala on Saturday, August 5 at the Albufeira resort.
The band, which boasts an impressive repertoire and has four Grammy nominations, is one of the world’s best selling music acts of all time, having sold over 70 million records worldwide.
‘Red Red Wine’, ‘Can’t Help Falling in Love’ and ‘I Got You Babe’ are just some of the most popular hits the band is known for.
“We always try to surprise those who visit us by bringing renowned artists to the gala,” said Thomas Schoen, General Manager at Pine Cliffs Resort.
“This year is a special occasion as we celebrate the resort’s 25th anniversary, so we wanted a band that would in some way associate themselves to the image of this resort. With their solid and successful career, and vibrant musical style admired by several generations, UB40 are just perfect,” he said.
