Arcade Fire announce UK & Ireland arena tour

With new album ‘Everything Now’ released next week (28th July), and having smashed a series of European festival headline spots this summer - and a short string of tiny shows - already, Arcade Fire have announced details of a mammoth UK & Ireland headline tour.

The band headed to BBC Radio 1 last week where they covered Lorde’s ‘Green Light’ as well as performing the title track from the new record, and have additionally shared tracks ‘Creature Comfort’, ‘Signs of Life’ and ‘Electric Blue’.

As well as nights in Dublin, Manchester, Birmingham and Glasgow next April, the group will play two nights at London’s Wembley Arena as part of their ‘Infinite Content’ tour. What’s more - the gigs are ‘in the round’ (basically, the band will be in the middle of the room).

The dates are:

APRIL
6 Dublin 3Arena
8 Manchester Arena
11 London SSE Arena Wembley
12 London SSE Arena Wembley
15 Birmingham Genting Arena
16 Glasgow SSE Hydro

Tickets are on sale from Friday 28th July at 9am.
