Gary Barlow announces 41-date 2025 solo tour

Gary Barlow is set to embark on ‘The Songbook Tour’ in 2025.

The Take That star has announced the mammoth 41-date jaunt across the UK and Ireland, kicking off on April 17, 2025, at the Villa Marina in the Isle of Man, and wrapping at Thetford Forest on June 21 as part of the Forest Live series.

The run will take in some of the most iconic venues, including two nights at London’s Royal Albert Hall on May 12 and 13.

Fans can expect to hear Take That’s greatest hits alongside songs from the 53-year-old singer’s solo repertoire spanning six records.

A press release notes that the shows “will celebrate” Gary’s “status as one of Britain’s most successful songwriters and record producers.”

Tickets go on sale at 9.30am on Friday (29.11.24).

Away from being in one of the biggest boy bands of all time in Take That – who have sold more than 45 million records worldwide and are the recipient of eight BRIT Awards – Gary has penned tracks for the likes of Dame Shirley Bassey and Sir Elton John, and recently teamed up on an unlikely collaboration with Jin of BTS, having penned his solo track ‘Running Wild’.

As well as the solo run, Take That will celebrate the 30th anniversary of ‘Back For Good’ next March.

Earlier this year, Take That embarked on their ‘This Life On Tour’ in support of their chart-topping ninth studio album ‘This Life’.
