Queen’s performance at Live Aid at Wembley stadium 40 years ago in 1985 has gone down in history as one of the most iconic rock gigs of all time - and their biggest hits will no doubt be blasted out in Mirfield by one of the original bands’ leading tribute acts on the special anniversary.

Jamie Whitehead, club president said: “This will be the third year running we will have had them. And we’ll have them back every year!
