Bob Dylan ticket prices as three Swansea shows go on sale
Tickets are now on sale for Bob Dylan's UK tour, including three shows in Swansea. The Mr. Tambourine Man singer confirmed he will grace Swansea with three performances this November, as part of his "phone free" 2025 UK and Ireland tour. The legend's 'Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour' is set to sweep into the Building Society Arena on November 9, 10, and 11 after already clocking up four years on the tarmac. Presale tickets went on sale at 10am on Wednesday, July 10, while general admission tickets hit the market at 10am on Friday, July 18. Pre-registration for the venue presale has now closed, but alternatively, tickets can be sought at Ticketmaster. Prices for the sought-after tickets start from £82.77, as well as the additional booking fee of £3.95 booking fee. However, a look at the Event Travel site via Ticketmaster shows that tickets are now ranging from as much as £300- £400. On November 9, 10 and 11, the 'front row experience' for the Swansea shows are now sold out, according to the site. These tickets started from £400. Meanwhile, the 'gold hot ticket package' is still available, with prices starting from £300. The folk music icon's visit to Swansea comes four years into his global jaunt, which has already included a revered performance at Cardiff's Motorpoint Arena. Dylan's choice to play Swansea might be seen as a tribute to Welsh bard Dylan Thomas, whose surname the American singer-songwriter adopted. Those who wish to buy a ticket and attend the shows should bear in mind that they will have to say goodbye to their mobiles during the event, as phones are to be securely stowed away in lockable pouches provided at the venue. While they can hold onto their phones (within these pouches) throughout the evening, use of the devices will be off limits, a measure installed by Dylan himself, who remarked that this move ensures "it creates better times for everyone in attendance". Fans have been reassured they will be able to use their phones in an emergency, but only by visiting a dedicated area intended for phone use. Bob Dylan's UK and Ireland tour dates: November 7 - Brighton Centre, Brighton November 9 - Building Society Arena, Swansea November 10 - Building Society Arena, Swansea November 11 - Building Society Arena, Swansea November 13 - Building Society Arena, Coventry November 14 - First Direct Arena, Leeds November 16 - Armadillo, Glasgow November 17 - Armadillo, Glasgow November 19 - Waterfront, Belfast November 20 - Waterfront, Belfast November 23 - INEC, Killarney November 24 - INEC, Killarney November 25 - 3Arena, Dublin

From superstar gigs to cosy pubs, find out What's On in Wales by signing up to our newsletter here This year's Swansea shows may well be a nod to Welsh poet Dylan Thomas, who Bob Dylan famously took his surname from. However, it's important to note that concert-goers will not be allowed to take their phones into the auditorium and will instead have to put them in a locked and secure phone pouch when they arrive at the venue. They will then be able to keep their phone on them for the rest of the evening but be unable to access it through the pouch. Bob said he had implemented this because "it creates better times for everyone in attendance".

Must-see concerts this week: First Ave's anniversary party, Bob Dylan & more
First Avenue will celebrate its 55th anniversary this week, providing at least one reason to get out of the house as winter attempts to assert its dominance over the spring. Elsewhere, you'll find genuine musical legends (Blind Boys of Alabama) and maybe even a little encouragement to see some music outside of the Twin Cities (Bob Dylan in Mankato). Here are the concerts worth catching around the Twin Cities (and beyond) this week. Thursday, April 3 at The Dakota The gospel group is about as celebrated as any group could be. They've won Grammys, were inducted into the Gospel Music Hall of Fame, and have lifetime achievement awards from both the Grammys and the National Endowment for the Arts. They're on the road frequently, but anytime they're in town is a chance to see something special. Friday, April 4 at Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center in Mankato Love his live shows for their idiosyncrasies or hate them, there's no doubt that any Dylan show will be a packed house. For this tour, Dylan is headed to less frequently visited towns around the country. The Twin Cities are left off his "Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour" in favor of a stop in Mankato. He'll head to Eau Claire the following night. Friday, April 4 at First Avenue First Avenue just celebrated the 45th anniversary of 7th St. Entry with a series of concerts that featured Soul Asylum, Kiss the Tiger, and others. Now, it's the main room's turn. For the downtown staple's anniversary, they'll bring in The Suburbs. Between the venue and the bands, there's a lot of Minnesota rock history in the building on Friday. Friday, April 4 at Palace Theatre Conor Oberst, a songwriter revered by fans as the second-coming of someone a little higher up on this list, canceled a big chunk of Bright Eyes' 2024 tour due to vocal issues. But the face of the Saddle Creek moment in the '00s is back on the road playing music from across his multi-decade career. Oberst and his cohort are joined by fellow Omaha indie stalwarts, Cursive. Saturday, April 5 at Cloudland Theater Reclaim works to increase access to mental healthcare for queer and trans youth "so they may reclaim their lives from oppression in all its forms." That makes Saturday's benefit concert a damn good cause. But even aside from doing good things with your concertgoing, it'll be a fun night at Cloudland. The show is headlined by local glam punk icon Venus de Mars, who will be joined by the punky Surly Grrly, the poppier Despondent, and drey dk, whose music and striking voice shifts between pop melodies and ambient on Tuesday, April 1: Joe Lovano's Paramount Quartet at The Dakota Sarah and the Sundays at Fine Line Pouya with Freddie Dredd and Cursed at The Uptown Theater Jeffrey Martin w/ Lou Hazel at Icehouse Tommy Richman at Varsity Theater Songbird Series at Pilllar Forum International Reggae Allstars at Bunker's The New Havoline Supremes at The White Squirrel Bar (free) Unattractive Giant Monster residency with Home Team Quarterback and Orchid Club at The White Squirrel Bar (free) Eldest Daughter, Oceanographer, and Clayton Ryan at 331 Club (free) Concerts on Wednesday, April 2: The Birthday Massacre with Essenger and Magic Wands at Fine Line Joe Lovano's Paramount Quartet at The Dakota Polica, Kareem Rahma & Tiny Gun, and Marijuana Deathsquads at Green Room Zack Fox (DJ set) at First Avenue Ben Sollee at The Parkway Theater Sir Woman with Dylan Meek and Uncle Roy & Spice at Turf Club Arts Fishing Club with Brother Elsey at 7th St. Entry Baths, Fashion Club, and Dosh at Icehouse Twine at Bunkers Hunny Bear residency with Greenline Quintent and EFMI at The White Squirrel Bar (free) The Second Stringers at The White Squirrel Bar (free)Concerts on Thursday, April 3: The Blind Boys of Alabama at The Dakota Caravan Palace with Zayka at First Avenue Lil Skies with Lil Gnar, Fergie Baby, $AM, and more at Fine Line The Army, The Navy with Aggie Miller at 7th St. Entry Maoli at Varsity Theater Lil Skies with Lil Gnar, Fergie Baby, and more at Fine Line LAP with Haze Gazer at Pilllar Forum Glitterdark album debut and dance party at Uptown VFW The Twin Town Old Time Music Festival Kick-off Party at Hook and Ladder Sunpearl and friends at Berlin Jay Bee & the Routine at Bunker's Once More, Autumn, Green, and Oceanographer at Underground Music Cafe Mark Guiliana at Icehouse Music of Timothy C.

Bob Dylan to play concert in Mankato this spring
Back firmly at the forefront of popular culture following the release of his biopic, Bob Dylan is returning to his native Minnesota for a show in April. The legendary songwriter will perform at Mankato's Mayo Clinic Health System Event Center, the venue for his most recent return to Minnesota in 2019. The show is booked for April 4, with tickets going on sale this Friday at 10 a.m. via Ticketmaster. It follows of the success of Dylan's Hollywood biopic, "A Complete Unknown," with Timothée Chalamet starring as the Hibbing native, premiering the movie in Minneapolis this past its release, the 83-year-old Dylan has added several more legs to his ongoing Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour, focusing on smaller market cities such as Mankato, Green Bay in Wisconsin, and Wichita, Kansas. The Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour started in Wisconsin in November 2021 and supposedly concluded in London this past November, but has since been resurrected by Dylan.
