Singer, actor and film producer, Will Smith, is set to take to the stage of Wolverhampton's The Halls as part of his 2025 world tour. 

The Hollywood star's show at The Halls is due to begin at 7pm on Saturday, with thousands of people from across the nation travelling to the city to see the 'Fresh Prince of Bel Air' himself.

The singer has been travelling around the world as part of his 2025 world tour, already having performed in cities across the world, including Rabat, Morocco, Wolfsburg, Germany,  Frankfurt, and Marbella, Spain, as well as dozens more.

Now, after arriving in the UK and already performing in Scarborough, Cardiff, Manchester and London, Will Smith is all set to jump on stage in Wolverhampton to 'get jiggy with it' in the Black Country.

So, ahead of the sold-out show, we have all of the must-know details.

Who is Will Smith?

Do you really need to ask? Every 90s kid will know the legendary American show 'The Fresh of Bel Air', where Will Smith starred in the titular roll as a troubled but lovable inner-city youth who moved to the prestigious Bel Air neighbourhood in Los Angeles. 

The singer is also known for his smash hits, 'Gettin Jiggy With It', 'Summertime', and 'Just The Two of Us', which have all been continuously played on radio in some form. 

If you haven't seen the Fresh Prince of Bel Air, or heard his music, then you must have seen the blockbuster movie 'Men in Black', where Will Smith starred as the lead role of secret government agent 'J', alongside the legendary Tommy Lee Jones as 'K', and also rapped the movie's theme song. 

For the new and uninitiated, Will also starred in the recent DC comics extended universe as Deadshot alongside Margot Robbie as Harley Quinn, where he played a high-trained super assassin. He previously got caught up in controversy when he slapped and shouted at presenter Chris Rock at the Oscars in 2022 before he won the Best Actor award for his portrayal of Richard Willimas in the biographical sports drama King Richard - he got banned from attending Academy events for 10 years.

Any tickets left?

Sadly, it seems that tickets for Will Smith's show at The Halls in Wolverhampton have completely sold out, with most official websites reporting of no availability for the night.

The Hall's ticket sale website has reported that seats and standing spots for the show are all gone.

Ticketmaster UK has also reported of a sold-out performance, instead offering seats for the singers Paris performances, so well done if you managed to get your hands on tickets.

What time should I get there?

The doors for the event open at 7pm on Saturday. With general recommendations advising to get in line at least an hour before the performance. 

However, hundreds of people will be travelling from around the country to see the event, so we advise to arrive well ahead of the gig to make sure you have a spot at the front.

What songs will he perform?

According the music website, Setlist.fm, which logs the song list of performances after the artists first gig, Will is set to sing the majority of his biggest and most famous hits. 

On the list is 'Gettin Jiggy With It', 'Boom! Shake the Room', 'Men in Black', and the iconic 'Bad Boys', which was sang as the theme song for the popular titled movie. 

Previous gigs have reported of amazing and comedic on stage antics, as well as plenty of dancing from the rapper, and crowd interaction, so make sure to bring comfortable footwear.

Will I be able to see Will out and about in Wolverhampton and where is he staying?

While it is not revealed exactly where the singer will be staying in the West Midlands, many performers choose to stay near Birmingham Airport prior to a West Midlands show, however, the singer is expected to be in Wolverhampton city centre from midday onwards.

Previous icons to perform in The Halls have been reported to have been seen around the streets adjacent to the venue earlier on in the day, so there may be a chance to see the icon if he takes a walk around the city.
