Bob Dylan announces UK tour for 2025 with 8 show dates
The news of the tour follows a successful run of gigs last year that included three nights at the Royal Albert Hall. The 84-year-old will perform in a few UK cities including Glasgow, Swansea, Brighton and more. The shows fill form part of his Rough And Rowdy Ways world tour which has been running since November 2021. The shows will be phone-free and fans will be asked to put their phones in a Yondr pouch which closes automatically when in the venue and unlocks in the venue's concourse. It comes amid a surge in interest in the singer's career, following the release of the biopic A Complete Unknown last year which starred Timothee Chalamet as Dylan and followed the story of his career beginnings and infamous decision to go electric in the mid-1960s. Tickets for the tour will go on sale on Friday, July 18 at 10am. Dylan has won 10 Grammys and been nominated on 38 further occasions, making him one of the most acclaimed songwriters of all time. He's had six UK top 10 singles and nine UK number one albums. Recommended reading: I visited Glastonbury Festival for the first time but will I go again? What is Liam and Noel Gallagher's net worth?
