Last week, Harry held a One Night Only concert at Manchester’s Co-op Live Arena in celebration of his latest record Kiss All The Time, Disco Occasionally.

The night saw Harry play tracks from the new album before closing out with hits from his three previous #1 studio albums such as Golden and As It Was.

Footage from the sold-out show was quickly turned around and featured in a Netflix special which was released over the weekend. 

During Harry’s gig, he yearned for ‘kindness and love’ in an emotional message to fans in the packed arena.

He thanked fans for coming out before appearing to touch on the conflict in the Middle East, saying the world ‘could use a little extra peace right now’.

The gig was a strictly no phones zone, but a fan at the intimate concert made note of Harry’s emotional speech and shared it to their Instagram fan account HS News 2.

Tickets for the hotly-anticipated gig were dished out via a ballot and cost just £20 for those enough lucky to grab one.

And some mega fans even managed to get tickets at the very last minute outside the venue – with their delight evident as they were seen screaming.
