ROCK superstar Sir Elton John will be coming to the Canary Islands after all. And this time it will be in the south of Tenerife.

After the abortive attempt by Santa Cruz city council to book him for an open-air seafront concert in the island’s capital, he will now be appearing on January 24.

Canarian promoters Sun Live Festival announced yesterday, Wednesday, that he will appear at the Olympic Stadium, Arona, and it was confirmed on the megastar’s own website.

But the Tenerife Sun has been told the venue has been changed to Costa Adeje Golf, in a specially prepared amphitheatre on the driving range, with room for 50,000.

Unlike with the premature claim by Santa Cruz deputy mayor, Angel Llanos, to have booked him for November 17, this new arrangement looks certain to go ahead.

Contracts have been signed and the fee has been paid upfront, according to our sources. Sir Elton is expected to bring his big band show direct from a date in Johannesburg.
