WIN: We’re giving away a double pass to attend the screening of Power To The People: John & Yoko Live In NYC

Fans of The Beatles and the legendary Lennon, you won't want to miss this one!

Tomorrow 29 April the highly-anticipated meticulously restored concert film, POWER TO THE PEOPLE: John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band with Elephant’s Memory and Special Guests – Live at the One To One Concert, New York City, 1972, will be making its impact in cinemas.

Representing the only full-length concerts John Lennon, with Yoko Ono, performed after leaving The Beatles, Power To The People: John & Yoko Live in NYC is a multiscreen concert film of two massive Madison Square Garden live shows. This is a film restoration twenty years in the making, with every frame physically and digitally cleaned by hand. This definitive version has been newly restored, re-edited and remixed by the Lennons’ seven-times GRAMMY®-Award winning team, led by Sean Ono Lennon.

In addition to “Instant Karma!,” hits performed include John’s ‘New York City’, ‘Imagine’, and ‘Mother’, plus Yoko’s ‘Don’t Worry Kyoko’ and ‘Open Your Box’, plus rousing renditions of ‘Come Together’ and ‘Hound Dog’, and the encore “Give Peace a Chance” with special guests.

John & Yoko/Plastic Ono Band with Elephant’s Memory and Special Guests performed these now-legendary sold-out One To One concerts on August 30, 1972, to a combined audience of 40,000 people, raising over $1.5M (equivalent to $11.5M in 2026) for children with intellectual and developmental disabilities.

The film is a celebration of one of the most celebrated musicians in history. John Lennon is arguably the greatest songwriter of his generation. As founder and leader of The Beatles and also as a solo artist, Lennon has won seven GRAMMY® Awards, including two Lifetime Achievement Awards, Five BRIT Awards including two Special Awards for Outstanding Contribution to Music, 21 NME Awards, 15 Ivor Novellos and an Oscar® (Academy Award®). He has been inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and the Songwriters Hall of Fame and has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. In 2008, Rolling Stone ranked Lennon in the Top 5 of the magazine’s ‘100 Greatest Singers Of All Time’ list.

Alongside Lennon, the film further captures the contributions of Yoko Ono. Originally from Tokyo, Yoko Ono was the first woman admitted to the philosophy program at Gakushuin University in Tokyo, where she studied for a year before moving to New York, where she studied writing and music at Sarah Lawrence College. Ono became an influential conceptual and performance artist prior to her marriage and artistic partnership with John Lennon. George Macunias, founder of the Fluxus collective, gave Ono her first solo gallery show in 1961. From the 1970s to the 1990s, Ono worked on music, both solo and in collaboration. The Whitney Museum of American Art presented a retrospective of her work in 1989, as did the Japan Society Gallery in 2000, and the Museum of Modern Art in 2015. She received a Golden Lion for Lifetime Achievement at the 2009 Venice Biennale. Yoko Ono lives and works in New York City.
