How to get last-minute Dua Lipa tickets for Liverpool shows
Dua Lipa's huge UK stadium tour will wrap up this week with two shows in Liverpool – but it's not too late to grab last-minute tickets.
The 29-year-old pop star will perform at Anfield Stadium, the home of Liverpool FC, in support of her latest chart-topping album, Radical Optimism.
The gigs follow her recent sold-out shows at London's iconic Wembley Stadium, where she wowed fans with a hit-filled setlist. Charli XCX and Jamiroquai frontman Jay Kay both made surprise appearances.
The Independent praised her "electrifying" performance in a five-star review, while The Standard called it "a victory lap for the megalithic pop star".
Worried about missing out? With a limited number of tickets still left, here's all you need to know about this week's Liverpool gigs.
Lipa will bring her globe-trotting Radical Optimism tour to Liverpool's Anfield Stadium on Tuesday 24 and Wednesday 25 June. The few remaining tickets can be bought on Ticketmaster now, with prices starting at £47.30 (minus fees) for seated tickets.
Stage times have yet to be confirmed, but doors will open at 5pm and Lipa is likely to finish by 10.30pm. Her support acts will be British singer Alessi Rose and former Disney star Dove Cameron.
The hotly awaited dates will be her first shows in Liverpool since 2022, when she was touring her disco-inspired second album Future Nostalgia. The tour coincides with the 10th anniversary of her debut single, New Love, being released.
The setlist for Lipa's Wembley shows was dominated by material from Radical Optimism, which was released last year. She played 10 of its 11 songs, including hit singles Houdini, Training Season and Illusion, as she turned the stadium into her own dancefloor.
The British-Albanian star performed older hits, such as break-up banger New Rules and her Calvin Harris collaboration One Kiss, both of which topped the UK charts.
She also sang disco anthem Dance the Night, her most recent number-one single. It earned an Oscar nomination after being included on 2023's Barbie film soundtrack – with Margot Robbie's character dancing to the track in a memorable scene.
It's unclear whether the Liverpool shows will have special guests, as the Wembley gigs did. Lipa performed Jamiroquai's 1996 single Virtual Insanity with Jay Kay on the first night, and teamed up with Charli XCX to sing her hit 360 on the second night.

Lipa appeared slightly emotional as she told fans that she was "blown away" to be performing at the national stadium.
The London-born singer said: "This is so surreal and so crazy. It means the absolute world to me that you are here tonight. It feels really, really special to be here tonight.
"It is 10 years since our first ever London show to about 350 people and I just dreamt of a night like this where I get to be in front of 70,000 people."
She took selfies and chatted with fans in the front row, and went through multiple costume changes – at one point appearing in a huge fluffy blue coat lined with the Union Flag. The crowd was also treated to a flurry of confetti cannons and fireworks.
Lipa's fiancé, actor Callum Turner, was spotted attending the gig with her family. The singer recently confirmed their engagement, telling British Vogue: "It's very exciting. This decision to grow old together, to see a life and just, I don't know, be best friends forever – it's a really special feeling.'

Melania Trump Inspires New Netflix Show: What To Know
Based on facts, either observed and verified firsthand by the reporter, or reported and verified from knowledgeable sources. Newsweek AI is in beta. Translations may contain inaccuracies—please refer to the original content. First lady Melania Trump has inspired Netflix's new show The Hunting Wives, one of the shows top actors Malin Akerman said. Why It Matters Melania Trump—who is married to President Donald Trump—has long been the target of public scrutiny. Over the years, the 55-year-old has faced criticism for her speeches, the White House rose garden renovation, her thoughts on Christmas decorations and more. The couple has been married since 2005, welcoming their son Barron Trump in 2006. Earlier this year, the White House hit back after rumors of a possible split were made by biographer Michael Wolff, who said on The Daily Beast Podcast in May that the Trumps "are separated." In response, White House Communications Director Steven Cheung told The Independent that Wolff was "a blithering idiot" who had been "widely discredited due to his blatant lies and fabrications." "He is an imbecile of the highest order," Cheung said. The Hunting Wives quickly surged to one of the top watched shows on Netflix after its release on July 21. It is based on the 2021 novel of the same name written by May Cobb. Newsweek reached out to a Netflix spokesperson and Melania Trump's representative via email for comment on Tuesday. First lady Melania Trump visits Number 10 Downing Street during the second day of President Donald Trump's state visit on June 4, 2019, in London. First lady Melania Trump visits Number 10 Downing Street during the second day of President Donald Trump's state visit on June 4, 2019, in London. Karwai Tang/WireImage What To Know The plot follows Sophie O'Neil (Brittany Snow) as she moves from Boston to a small Texas town with her husband Graham (Evan Jonigkeit). She soon finds herself out of her comfort zone in an affluent circle of housewives who call themselves the "Hunting Wives." In an interview with Vulture, which was published last week, Akerman—who stars as socialite Margo Banks in the drama—said that the show's creative team described her character as like Melania Trump: "Someone who 'came into a marriage to this rich man as one woman, then finds the expectations for her have shifted once he becomes politically ambitious.' " "That was the only reference, really. Other than that, it's just high-society," Akerman told the outlet. "I've mingled with aristocrats and high-society people and seen the games that go into it. For lack of a better word, I wouldn't say 'authenticity' is how those people lead." The Proposal actress added that the series will keep viewers entertained. "This show moves pretty quick. It's not a slow pace or, like, I hope they kiss by episode whatever," she said. "We're diving right in there." According to data analytics site Luminate, The Hunting Wives was the most streamed series in the United States across major platforms last week, The New York Times reported. What People Are Saying Critics' reviews of The Hunting Wives have been mixed. On Rotten Tomatoes, the shows has a Tomatometer score of 77 percent and a Popcornmeter score of 68 percent. According to its website, the Tomatometer score is "based on the collective opinions of hundreds of film and television critics," while the Popcornmeter score "captures audience sentiment." Rolling Stone said: "The Hunting Wives isn't even close to being a successful political satire. But luckily for the series, which already has fans clamoring for a second season, there's no need for it to be. The binge-drop melee of sex, drugs, murder, and sex is the perfect formula to keep viewers locked to their couches for however long it takes for the clothes to come off." The New York Times said: "The Hunting Wives sets up a kind of red state-blue state conflict, but the plot is largely the stuff of soapy fantasy. There's nothing new in the idea that beneath all the Bible-thumping and purity rhetoric, there might be a whole lot of dirty stuff going on in rural America. Still, Akerman's performance makes the case that hypocrisy can be liberating. Like Snow's wide-eyed Sophie, you'll have trouble resisting her charms." Variety said: "Twist after twist keeps the story constantly in motion, at the expense of both texture and basic coherence, until the season ends on an oddly open note —less hanging over a cliff than trailing off into the ether." Time magazine said: "The Hunting Wives is too much, in ways both delectable and exhausting. Executive producer and showrunner Rebecca Cutter risks running out of steam in the back half of the season, let alone in a second. But for now, at least, its sheer exuberance keeps all the try-hard naughtiness from feeling excessively self-satisfied." What Happens Next The Hunting Wives is currently available to stream on Netflix.

Where is Amanda Knox now, as Disney Plus releases gripping true-crime drama about her fight for justice
It's a court case that dominated headlines at the time; the murder of British exchange student Meredith Kercher in Perugia, Italy with the courts initially finding her housemate Amanda Knox and her boyfriend Raffaele Sollecito guilty of the heinous crime. Knox, who was just 20-years-old when facing a hefty 26 year jail sentence when she was wrongly convicted of murder in Italian court, immediately became catnip to salacious tabloid titles who thirstily followed the case and sensationalised any updates. She was branded as 'Foxy Knoxy', with Knox herself revealing she felt as if she was portrayed as a "dirty, psychopathic, man-eater" in the press. She spent years fighting for her freedom - and was acquitted in 2011 after an appeal, in which she immediately flew back to the US. While Knox was reconvicted in 2014 following a retrial, the Italian supreme court permanently exonerated her and Sollecito in 2015 - meaning her ordeal was finally over. After a brief hiatus from public life, Knox returned to the spotlight in 2016 to recount her fight for justice in the Netflix documentary Amanda Knox. Now, Knox's story will be retold in the hotly-anticipated Disney Plus drama The Twisted Tale of Amanda Knox, with the eight-part series allowing Knox to reclaim the narrative that was stolen from her. Nine Perfect Strangers star Grace Van Patten plays Knox, with the real Knox also serving as executive producer. Here, Cosmopolitan UK explores where Knox is now, and what she has accomplished now she has dedicated her life to miscarriages of justice. After finishing her undergraduate degree in creative writing at the University of Washington, Knox wrote a memoir about her fight for justice in 2013 titled Waiting to Be Heard, which became an instant bestseller. Knox released her second book, Free, in 2025, which details her 'quest for meaning'. Knox got engaged to Seattle-based author Christopher Robinson on November 21, 2018. The pair met at a book launch and officially started dating in late 2015. Apparently, Robinson barely knew who Knox was when they met. 'I was probably the only person at the party who didn't really know who she was,' he told People in 2017. 'I knew [about] Italy and some legal stuff and something that shouldn't have happened. But I didn't really know her story.' Meanwhile, Knox told People, 'I don't want to get married for the sake of getting married. My hope is that I have a partner with whom I can continue to take on the I very much love Chris and feel like he is my partner. And he would be a wonderful dad and we talk about it all the time.' After all the marriage talk, Knox and Robinson tied the knot literally a week after they got engaged. Their marriage certificate, which surfaced on the internet, revealed that they applied for the certificate in Kings County, Washington, on 1 December, 2018. This prompted Knox and Robinson to release a joint statement on their sci-fi-themed wedding website. 'We filed paperwork to be legally married in December of last year to simplify our taxes and insurance. But we have not yet celebrated our wedding with our loved ones,' the press release read. 'This is, frankly, no one's business but our own and should be no more shocking than the fact that we've been living together for years.' Knox and Robinson welcomed their daughter, Eureka Muse Knox-Robinson, in 2021 and their son, Echo Knox-Robinson, in September 2023. The family now lives in Seattle. Knox spends her time raising awareness about wrongful conviction in the judicial system, and she has returned to Italy on multiple occasions. In 2019, she headed back to Europe as the keynote speaker at a criminal justice conference hosted by the Italy Innocence Project. In 2023, she went back to Perugia to meet with the prosecutor in her initial court proceedings, Dr. Giuliano Mignini. Speaking to People magazine in 2025, Knox said of the meeting: "Forgiveness is a natural consequence of realising how fragile and precious another human is. I immediately sort of stepped into mom mode, and I was like, 'I'm not just forgiving you. I'm holding you. I care about you.' And that changed everything." In 2019, Knox hosted the podcast titled The Truth About True Crime, where—as she puts it—'we attempt to rehumanise others who have been singled out as true-crime fodder and elevate the standard for how we think and talk about those whose lives are thrust into the judicial and media spotlight.' She's also had her own series on Facebook Watch. In 2018, Knox hosted The Scarlet Letter Reports, which gave high-profile women who had faced the wrath of public judgement a chance to tell their side of the story.
