Beatlemania

The Beatles’ rise to fame began in 1962 with the release of Love Me Do, followed by their breakout hit Please Please Me in early 1963.

Their energetic sound and charm quickly captured the UK, leading to a string of No.1 hits like She Loves You and I Want to Hold Your Hand.

By late 1963, the frenzy surrounding the band - dubbed Beatlemania - had taken hold, and their 1964 arrival in the U.S. sparked international stardom, cemented by their iconic performance on The Ed Sullivan Show, which was watched by over 70 million viewers.
