Village People
In its third decade, Village People continue to tour the world with a high energy show performing their hits from the disco era (Go West, San Francisco/In Hollywood, Can’t Stop the Music, In the Navy, Macho Man, Hot Cop, YMCA and more) and original material like Trash Disco (utilizing over 45 dance favorites into one special performance number).
Recent TV appearances include Fox's "Wendy Williams Show" (2010), NBC’s “The Singing Bee”, Poland’s Sopot Festival and Italy’s RAI. Village People broke audience records at Disney World’s EPCOT in 2007.
The VP's celebrated their 30th anniversary with a full page ad in Billboard and this new website to stay in touch with their many fans and reach out to a new generation of Macho men and women. Their fans are actually getting younger as parents and grandparents bring their children to concerts to join the fun and dance and sing along.
For the final season before they tear down Yankee Stadium, Major League Baseball asked Village People to perform YMCA with the grounds crew at the All-Star Game on July 15, 2008. And in September 2008, Village People received a Star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, between Liberace and Betty Grable!
On December 31, 2008, Village People and over 40,000 fans enter the Guiness World Record books with the largest crowd to ever do the YMCA dance. Village People lead the crowd in a joyous and exciting moment of history.
2010 was the 30th Anniversary of the Village People cult musical movie hit Can't Stop the Music which they celebrated with 3 weeks in Australia on the Can't Stop the Music tour. Other international shows happened in Europe and South America. US shows had the guys traveling from North Dakota to Florida, Texas to California, Massachusetts to Oklahoma, Georgia to Detroit and quite honestly, all over the place.
Their songs endure and their performing talents delight audiences all over the world. Village People in concert can make anyone smile and dance and sing along.
