Elton John Performs at the Princess Diana Concert 2007

The 1st July concert marked the life of Diana, who died in a 1997 Paris car crash, on what would have been her 46th birthday.

Sir Elton John brought the concert to a close after sets by stars including Sir Tom Jones, Take That and Rod Stewart.

Prince William and Prince Harry opened the show and returned to the stage at the end of Sir Elton’s final set, praising the artists for an “incredible evening”.

“Thank you to all of you who have come here tonight to celebrate our mother’s life,” Prince William said.

“For us this has been the most perfect way to remember her, and this is how she would want to be remembered.”

Concert for Diana is a celebration of the life and work of Diana, Princess of Wales. Diana was a passionate champion of the rights of disadvantaged people and did much to highlight the plight of people living with HIV or AIDS, offering a visible helping hand to those in need.
