Bob Dylan will return to the UK in 2025 for a string of dates presented by ITB, this follows his appearances here in November last year, so those of you who said “It’s probably my last chance to see him!” then, may well be proved wrong. Tickets go on sale at 10 am on Friday 18th July, and will be available here 

Over the next few months, Dylan will perform across the US, before coming to the Brighton Centre, on 7th November. The tour will then cross the UK and Ireland with dates in Swansea, Coventry, Leeds, Glasgow, Belfast, Killarney and Dublin. Dylan’s first gig in the UK was at The King & Queen pub in Fitzrovia, London, in 1962, while he first played Ireland at the Adelphi Cinema on his famous 1966 world tour.

The release of new music in 2020 surprised and delighted fans, with the album “Rough and Rowdy Ways” dominating end-of-year lists and marking another milestone in the career of one of the great artists of modern times. The AUK review from roving reporter Paul Villers is here.

These upcoming concerts are the latest opportunity to see a genuine legend (an overused moniker but in this case absolutely not) on stage, and the shows are in partnership with Yondr, who will prohibit the use of video cameras and mobile phones. That’ll make a change from the normal sea of screens. Thank you, Bob! We’ll see you there.
