How to get Dua Lipa tickets for her only UK date at London's Royal Albert Hall

Are you ready to dance the night away to Dua Lipa songs at the Royal Albert Hall this autumn? Here’s how to secure tickets for the pop star's one-off UK show today.

While we don’t look back on the whole of 2020 with fondness, the pandemic years gave us some fantastic pop albums; Dua Lipa’s Future Nostalgia and Chloe x Halle’s Ungodly Hour played on repeat that entire summer.

Now, four years later, we’re ready to dance the night away at Lipa’s one-off UK show in London this October.

Lipa is headlining the Royal Albert Hall in London on Thursday 17th October this year.

In an Instagram post, the 28-year-old gushed: "So excited to announce I’ll be doing a show at the Royal Albert Hall on October 17th this year. This is such a special iconic venue and I can’t wait to share these songs live with you."

The pop star has been releasing dance-along tracks for almost a decade; 2015 saw Lipa release her debut single New Love and the track Be the One, and just one year later, Lipa was chosen as one of the most promising emerging music acts in the BBC Sound of 2016 longlist.

We certainly remember where we were when Lipa released the 2017 single New Rules (our friend was going through a break-up…), which skyrocketed the singer to fame.

Lipa’s self-titled debut album, which featured New Rules and the song IDGAF, reached Platinum status in the UK and US, and earned her two BRIT Awards: British Female Solo Artist and British Breakthrough Act.

At the start of 2024, Lipa released Houdini, the lead single from her upcoming album Radical Optimism, and we’ve since been treated to the track Training Season from the same album.

Let’s find out how to secure Dua Lipa tickets for her one-off London concert.

Is Dua Lipa doing a UK tour?

It’s no lie when we say that Lipa has announced just one UK show so far, and that’s at the Royal Albert Hall in London.

However, the One Kiss singer has been announced as a Glastonbury Festival headliner and released European arena show tickets, so we’re hopeful more UK dates will be added.

How much do Dua Lipa concert tickets cost?

At the time of writing (Wednesday 10th April), ticket pricing for Lipa’s Royal Albert Hall show hasn’t been announced.

When Lipa embarked on her Future Nostalgia tour, tickets started from around £44, so we’re expecting them to cost a little more than that.

Taylor Swift announces UK, Europe and Asia tour dates for her Eras tour

• Published 21 June 2023
• Glastonbury Festival

Taylor Swift has announced international dates for her record-breaking Eras tour, with shows set for UK, Europe and Asia in 2024.

The pop star will play nine shows in the UK, with concerts in Edinburgh, Liverpool, Cardiff and London.

There is also a gap on Glastonbury's final night, with the star rumoured to be reclaiming the headline slot she missed in 2020 due to the pandemic.

The first leg of the tour has seen her play to record audiences in the US.

Demand for the tickets was so high that it overwhelmed Ticketmaster's systems, with thousands of fans left unable to obtain seats.

The fiasco led to Ticketmaster being hauled in front of US senators to answer questions on the company's handling of the event.

Swift herself said it was "excruciating" to watch fans struggling to get tickets, and that she had been assured Ticketmaster could cope with the demand.

For the UK dates, fans have been invited to register interest via Swift's website , although those who tried to do so after the announcement were put in a long queue.

After registration closes, fans will be sent a purchase link for tickets. The London dates then go on sale on 18 July, followed by Edinburgh on 19 July and Cardiff on 20 July.

"We expect there will be more demand than there are tickets available," Ticketmaster warned those who successfully registered.

"Tickets will be sold on a first come, first served basis while currently-available inventory lasts".

Taylor Swift's 2024 UK dates:

• 7 & 8 June - Edinburgh, Murrayfield Stadium
• 14 & 15 June - Liverpool, Anfield Stadium
• 18 June - Cardiff, Principality Stadium
• 21 & 22 June and 16 & 17 August - London, Wembley Stadium

Eras is Swift's first world tour since 2018, since when she has released four new studio albums, including the Grammy Award-winning Folklore.

Music publication Billboard has estimated the ticket revenue from the 52-date US tour to be $591m (£464m).

Those shows launched in March, with Swift playing a three-hour, 44-song set spanning the entirety of her recording career.

As well as hits like Shake It Off, Love Story and Lover, she plays two "surprise" acoustic songs at every show, often bringing out special guests to help.

So far, the acoustic section has included fan favourites like Mirrorball, Snow On The Beach and Getaway Car alongside more mainstream hits like Welcome To New York and her debut single Tim McGraw.

Everything we know about Taylor Swift's songwriting

Fans have been clamouring for international dates for months, and the tour extension will see her play in Asia and Australia at the start of 2024, before reaching Europe in May.

Reactions from 'Swifties' - a term the pop star has trademarked and uses to call her fans - in Asia have already been wild on social media.

She will begin her Asia tour in the Japanese capital Tokyo, where she will play for four nights beginning 7 February. She will then make her way to Australia, performing first in Melbourne for two nights, and then three nights in Sydney.

Her Asia leg ends in Singapore, the only South East Asian country in her Eras tour, where she will set up stage for three nights ending on 4 March.

The UK dates will kick off at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium on 7 June, and wrap up with two nights at London's Wembley Stadium in August.

Two earlier Wembley shows appear to clash with Glastonbury's first two nights. But she has a space in her diary on Sunday 23 June, which means she could close the festival with a headline slot on the Pyramid Stage.

Reviews for the US leg of the Eras tour have been overwhelmingly positive.

"The queen of pop reclaims her throne," declared The Times , adding: "If there is a danger that shifting between 10 such different albums could lead to an uneven experience it is somehow avoided here, with Swift managing to produce a cohesive experience despite the constantly changing outfits and backdrops."

"The Swifties are certainly going to be Enchanted," said Hello magazine in a review peppered with Swift's song titles.

"It's been a long wait back to this moment, but karma is, indeed, a queen - and this was worth the wait."

"The achievement is often staggering," concluded Billboard , "with costume changes, set-piece upheaval [and] vulnerable moments in a crowd of thousands and sing-alongs that will rival the scope of any tour this year."

There have been reports of fans who couldn't get tickets gathering in car parks outside venues to sing along with the star's songs.

Other fans have reported suffering a form of amnesia after the show, due to the overwhelming nature of the experience.

Pink at University of Bolton Stadium — stage times, setlist and more

Pink returns to the UK after four years and Manchester for the first time in a decade.

Pop legend Pink is in Manchester as we speak ahead of her massive gigs at the University of Bolton Stadium this week, set to play not one but two shows at the Wanderers’ home ground.

Having been around since 1995 if you can believe that, the legendary Noughties singer recently released her ninth studio album, Trustfall , back in February and is now set to embark on a huge world tour entitled ‘ Summer Carnival ‘.

The UK leg, her first since 2019, consists of six big shows across Britain, but Manchester has the honour of not only hosting Pink for the first time in 10 years but being the one to kick off her world tour, which already consists of over 70 dates, nine different countries and runs all the way into 2024.

It might surprise a few to see that Pink’s playing at a football stadium in Bolton to get things started, but she’s played there multiple times before and while she might not have heard about the recent name change , it’s somewhere she’s more than familiar with. Here’s everything you need to know about it.

View this post on Instagram A post shared by P!NK (@pink)

Tickets for Pink’s Manchester gig

It’ll be no surprise to hear that tickets to see one of the biggest pop artists of the past 20+ years aren’t exactly abundant but, fear not, if you’re a big Pink fan there are still some available for both nights.

The bad news is, given they’re in such high demand and the gigs are literally around the corner, they’ll cost you a fair few quid, to say the least.

The cheapest seats remaining on Wednesday, 7 June will set you back £135 per person; as for the following Thursday, 8 June, not only are there still some seats available at the same price but there are even a handful of Gold Standing Tickets in The Circle that will cost you £162.

Even the VIP packages for these gigs are all sold out as there are literally hundreds of people set to raise their glass to the pop sensation’s return.

Pink support acts at Bolton Stadium

As if seeing Pink wasn’t enough, the Pennsylvania songstress will be accompanied by three different support across her double-header at the UniBol Stadium.

For those of you who do manage to get a ticket, she will be joined by fellow American singer-songwriter Gayle , rising DJ and producer KidCutUp who played her last tour, as well as fellow pop hit-makers, The Script.

Talk about a warm-up act — seeing The Script is a pricey ticket on its own, let alone a trio of exciting artists and then Pink!

Their appearances on Pink’s impending tour are also among the first the Irish group will play following the passing of their guitarist and co-founder Mark Sheehan back in April, having got back on stage in Blackpool earlier this week. It’ll no doubt be just as emotional an occasion for them on Wednesday.

Predicted setlist

Now, as for what Pink will be playing on her opening night in Bolton , we don’t really have any other gigs this year to go off, however, you can bet you’ll be hearing plenty of the new album as well as plenty of the classics from down the years.

We’re not going to lie, this setlist is adjusted from her last big show at Austin City Limits back in October 2022 and based on the stuff she’s played most this year according to Setlist.fm , so there’s a fair bit of guesswork here but here’s an idea of what you might get to hear:

• Get The Party Started
• What About Us
• When I Get There
• F**kin’ Perfect
• Just Give Me a Reason
• Never Gonna Not Dance Again
• Please Don’t Leave Me
• Just Like a Pill
• Me and Bobby McGee (Kris Kristofferson) 
• Nothing Compares 2 U (Prince cover)
• Raise Your Glass
• So What (encore)

So long as we hear ‘Get The Party Started’ we’ll be happy, to be honest — top-tier banger.

Stage times

As for set times, the University of Bolton Stadium’s doors are set to open at 4.30pm, with the first of the warm-ups, KidCutUp , beginning an hour later — one of three occasions he’ll be keeping the crowd entertained over the course of the evening.

Then at 6.45pm Gayle will play a roughly half-an-hour set before KidCutUp returns for the interval. As for the big support, The Script will be taking to the stage for an hour from 7:30-8:30pm.

Making a final appearance for 20 minutes as the main event, KidCutUp will once again get the crowd ready and raring to go before Pink arrives at around 8:50pm, will the show set to end no later than 11pm.

With such an early start time and so much music to enjoy on Wednesday and Thursday, it’s going to be a brilliant couple of nights in Bolton.

Travel and parking

As for how you’re going to get to Pink’s Bolton gigs, one of the best parts about Greater Manchester is our brilliant public transport networks mean you can always get around.

With a shuttle bus running from Bolton Interchange, Chorley Railway Station and Wigan Robin Park to the stadium on both nights between 2-8pm, Big Green Coaches available from various locations, as well as Horwich Parkway as your nearest train station, there are several options for travelling to the gig.

As for if you’re driving in, there are plenty of places to drop gig-goers around the stadium and if you’re looking for parking, there are around 1800 spaces available at the stadium per night.

Parking spots, including 120 blue badge disability spaces, will be first-come-first-serve and bookable via the Evology app for £25. You can find out more information about pricing and how to book, as well as plenty of other travel information down below.

Pink was one of the first big musical artists to ever play at Bolton Wanderer’s home stadium and helped usher the likes of The Killers, Little Mix, Coldplay, Elton John and more to join her.

With that in mind, it’s only fitting that she’s returned to the venue that she’s remained so fond of, declaring, “ Manchester, I am so in love with you ” after arriving in Manchester at the start of this week.

Writing in a statement on the University Bolton Stadium Hotel website, Pink said : “It’s been a long three years and I’ve missed live music so so much… So it’s finally time! I am so excited to get back to the UK and Europe to sing, cry, sweat and make new memories with my friends. It’s going to be magical!” 

The mum of two even took her daughter Willow out in Trafford Park to celebrate her 12th birthday. Even hearing her name next to random Manc boroughs still sounds a bit surreal but we’re absolutely here for it — roll on Wednesday night!

The battle to ‘save’ Manchester’s iconic Night & Day Cafe seems to have finally come to an end, with a lengthy court battle wrapping up last month.

The historic venue has helped launch the careers of countless bands and played host to intimate gigs from the likes of Ed Sheeran, Arctic Monkeys, Wet Leg, James Bay and Elbow.

A couple of years ago though, a ‘new resident’ in the neighbourhood filed a noise complaint.

And then Night & Day Cafe was slapped with a Noise Abatement Notice by the council.

And then they took the whole thing public, and the row rumbled on and on and on.

The resident unwittingly at the heart of the media storm (some very famous faces were rallying behind the venue) said that the music was so loud it could ripple their toilet water, Jurassic Park-style.

In a lengthy piece recently published by The Mill , previous residents came forward and backed them up, saying that the flat was ‘uninhabitable’ and a ‘living nightmare’.

That piece also revealed that Matty Healy, frontman of The 1975, at one time came forward and offered to buy the flat for cash to put an end to the whole thing.

But three years after the noise complaint row hit headlines, Night & Day Cafe has been granted permission to continue operating as a gig venue and nightclub, with a few conditions that should end the back-and-forth between them and their neighbours.

Manchester City Council has maintained throughout the ordeal that it has had no intention of shutting down the Oldham Street venue, saying that the Noise Abatement Notice was issued as a ‘last resort’ after months of negotiating and compromising.

After three years of public statements and court hearings and occasional celebrity endorsements, it looks like Night & Day Cafe can finally go back to what it does best.

And if you also got lost in the whole storyline along the way, here’s a little refresher of what happened and when (it goes back a full decade…)

Night & Day Cafe’s noise row as it happened

January 2014 – Night & Day is first hit with a Noise Abatement Notice, with thousands (including Johnny Marr, Frank Turner and Tim Burgess) signing a petition to have it removed.

September 2014 – Night & Day is allowed to remain in operation, on the condition that owners meet with residents every three months and to discuss any issues.

August 2020 – A man buys a Northern Quarter flat that neighbours Night & Day Cafe. The world is still under lockdown restrictions and live music is all-but non-existent.

July 2021 – Restrictions lift and this iconic venue springs back to life with its first event. The noise is so loud inside the neighbouring apartment, the toilet water ripples, Jurassic Park-style. The residents file their first complaint, and meet with the owners of Night & Day to discuss a solution.

November 2021 – After multiple complaints, and multiple meetings with the venue’s bosses, Manchester City Council serves Night & Day with its Noise Abatement Notice. The council received hundreds of noise complaints that year – this was the only one that resulted in a NAN (the rest were sorted out by venues without council involvement).

November 2021 – Night & Day goes public with its Noise Abatement Notice and launches a petition to have the NAN removed. It gains almost 100,000 signatures and is shared by many famous faces in the music industry.

November 2021 – The resident at the centre of the row speaks to the MEN , saying their issue is with the club nights (not the gigs) and that he’s spent thousands of pounds trying to insulate his flat from the noise.

November 2021 – Local artist Paul Hallows, who works under the name himHallows, creates a series of tongue-in-cheek free posters about the whole situation.

October 2022 – Night & Day pushes its petition to have its NAN removed again, as the venue says its future ‘still hangs in the balance’. It claims that complying with the requirements of the abatement notice ‘would effectively ruin Night & Day’s business’.

November 2022 – Night & Day heads to court for the first time, with celebrities rallying around the venue. Jeremy Pritchard from Everything Everything, Elbow’s frontman Guy Garvey, and Matty Healy from The 1975 all lend their support.

November 2022 – Manchester City Council confirms it’s had five complaints from four different flats – not just the one at the centre of the row.

December 2022 – Blossoms perform at the venue to mark one year to go until the opening of the Co-op Live Arena. They have #SaveNightandDay posters plastered to their equipment.

Summer 2023 – Matty Healy pops up to the flat and tries to buy flat for cash, according to reports in The Mill. The sale fell through because The 1975 were sued for a large sum, after Matty kissed his bandmate on stage in protest of Malaysia’s anti-LGBTQ+ laws.

January 2024 – Night & Day heads back to court for a three-day hearing. There were several other court appearances over this timeline, but to be honest, we’ve lost track too. They said again ‘the source of the problem is that when the adjoining building was converted from warehouse to flats, no consideration was given to the pre-existing live music venue’.

March 2024 – It all wraps up quickly at Manchester Magistrates’ court, and the NAN is upheld. Night & Day can remain open, but will have to compromise.

A second wave of artists has been added to the lineup for this year’s Green Island Festival, the hidden gem Manchester music festival tucked away inside a garden centre.

Genuinely one of our favourite festivals anywhere in the region, Green Island Festival 2024 is already looking set to welcome more people through its verdant doors at

Taking place for its fourth year, the fundamentally grassroots Manchester music festival takes place across three parts over at Hulme Garden Centre just on the outskirts of the city centre and has quickly become a cult classic.

Promising three spectacular days and nights this summer and championing all things new and local on the music scene, you won’t find many more diverse lineups or crowds on this year’s calendar. Speaking of, here’s a look at who they’ve added as part of their second wave:

Taking place on 15 June, 27 July and 7 September this year, Green Island 2024 is now set to welcome nearly 100 acts from Greater Manchester and beyond as well as more than 1000 festivalgoers in their biggest edition yet.

Local experimental hip-hop jazz band Jointhedots have been added to the main stage in July, joining the likes of Def MaMa Def – two powerful women and rising stars of Senegal’s music scene – as well the smooth as silk R&B soul singer, Victoria Jane and contemporary jazz artist, corto.alto as headliners.

As for the other four stages spread throughout the beloved Manchester garden centre, which has served as a significant cultural hub in the Hulme neighbourhood since the Millenium, names like Ni Maxine , Ubunye the Zulu , Manchester legend of Finders Keepers Records fame, Andy Votel , upcoming DJ Jade Li and many more will be leaving their mark. Even local artist Stanley Chow is getting involved.

With the Forest Stage firming itself as instant success from day one and The Bandstand stage now a permanent fixture at the garden centre even outside of the festival, this thing just keeps growing every year and it won’t stay the best-kept secret for long, so don’t miss out what is sure to be a belter.

• Manchester Rum Festival to return bigger than ever before in new venue

Better still, Green Island Festival serves up great food from local independent vendors every year, plenty of sunny cocktails and alcohol-free options, places to chill like the soothing chamomile bed and so much more. Trust us, when the sun shines on this thing it is unmatched vibes.

As well as live music at NIAMOS next door, there’s also a whole host of afterparties for each of the three all-day festivals over at YES in the city centre and the organisers are encouraging everyone to donate an extra quid for every ticket sale to local charity Eat Well MCR , because they’re a sound bunch as well.

In case we haven’t made it abundantly clear already, we’re very big fans of Green Island Fest not just simply because of the live music or the slightly quirky setting, but because of the all-day schedule, family-friendly approach and the immensely wholesome summery atmosphere it gives off every year.

Get yourself down there to at least one of them, if not all three, and we’ll see you there (most likely at the Forest Stage). Grab your tickets HERE .

Jennifer Lopez Quietly Rebrands Tour as Greatest Hits Show Amid Weak Ticket Sales

By Steven J. Horowitz

• Beyoncé’s ‘Cowboy Carter’ Bows at No. 1, Earning Biggest Debut of 2024 So Far 3 days ago

After canceling seven dates of her first North American tour in five years amid weak ticket sales, Jennifer Lopez has renamed it to apparently broaden its scope, changing it from “This Is Me… Now” to “This Is Me… Live | The Greatest Hits.”

Requests for comment from Lopez’s reps and Live Nation, which is producing the tour, went unanswered. Live Nation’s site hasn’t been updated to reflect the tour’s name change, but it does have conflicting titles on Lopez’s listings, including “This Is Me… Live” and “This Is Me… Now The Tour.” While some venues hosting Lopez’s performances haven’t changed the original listings on their respective sites, there are a few instances confirming the rebrand, for shows at Palm Springs’ Acrisure Arena and Inglewood’s The Forum . A sponsored Facebook ad from Lopez also features a graphic with the new title.

Upon release in February, “This Is Me… Now” struggled to find an audience, selling 14,000 copies in its first week. While the album did debut atop the Billboard Top Album Sales Chart due to 11,000 in physical sales, it arrived at No. 38 on the Billboard 200, becoming the second of her nine studio albums to bow outside the top 10.

The album was one part of a self-financed $20 million multimedia project including the tour and the two films, “This Is Me…Now: A Love Story,” and a documentary, “The Greatest Love Story Never Told.” Variety described the endeavor as an examination of “Lopez’s life as a serial romantic” following her romantic rekindling with actor Ben Affleck, who she married in 2022 after nearly two decades apart.

Zendaya’s Grand Slam Red Carpet Looks from the Challengers Press Tour — Including Her Tennis Ball Stilettos! 

Louis Vuitton, Loewe and lots of blonde! Take a look at the actress’ game-changing style inspired by her new tennis film (out April 26), plus her major hair change

One thing Zendaya is going to do every single time is deliver a red carpet moment. 

In early 2024, we got to see the actress, 27, take on method dressing in the form of a butt-baring Mugler space suit, a sculptural Torishéju gown and more futuristic ensembles for Dune: Part Two .

Once that was wrapped up, Zendaya quickly shifted into Challengers mode, presenting a whole new wardrobe (styled by Law Roach) and blonde hairstyle inspired by her new tennis-focused film, in which she plays Tashi, a tennis player turned coach who finds herself in a love triangle with her current husband ( Mike Faist ) and former boyfriend ( Josh O'Connor ). 

See every look Zendaya has worn around the world ahead of the Challengers premiere on April 26. 

A Big Style Hit!

Zendaya kicked off the Challengers press tour on March 26 in Sydney. She may have been Down Under, but she certainly went over the top in a custom glittery green Loewe gown that sparkled from all angles.

The bespoke piece, made by fashion designer Jonathan Anderson, who's also the movie's costume designer, featured a plunging neckline, waist-high slit and a graffiti-like graphic of a figure hitting a tennis ball with a racket. Triple-tiered Bulgari diamond earrings added extra sparkle.

Zendaya also debuted her new honey blonde hair color , which was styled into an elegant updo with curled side-swept bangs.

Zendaya continued to make green her color in Paris.

At a photocall event on April 6, she made even chartreuse look good in a Louis Vuitton by Marc Jacobs 1999 two-piece splashed in the vibrant shade. She wore the top with the bottom three buttons undone to show her midriff, which gave the tailored suit a sexy Y2K vibe.

For another photocall with her costars on April 10, she wore a mod shift dress teamed with a white headband and stilettos. With its retro checkerboard print, the frock looked like it could've been from the '60s, but it was actually pulled from Marc Jacobs' 2013 spring/summer collection.

Tennis Whites

These monochromatic looks appeared to be a nod to the sport's white dress code.

In Sydney, Zendaya made athleisure high-fashion with a custom tank top and sheer skirt with briefs by Lacoste, which was founded in 1933 by tennis legend René Lacoste, who earned seven Grand Slams throughout his career and introduced a lightweight polo to the courts.

Zendaya continued her white-hot style streak at the Challengers Paris premiere with a custom Louis Vuitton gown designed with a sweetheart bodice displaying her clavicle in the most elegant way and a floor-sweeping pleated skirt cinched with a crisscross belt. She kept her hair in cascading waves that let her Bulgari diamond necklace dazzle.

When she hit the Challengers premiere in Rome on April 8, she rocked her sexiest look on the tour so far — a custom Calvin Klein skirt set, featuring an open blazer worn with nothing but a Bulgari necklace. She also managed to accomplish her second hair transformation in the span of just a few weeks, taking her blonde hair to a dark brunette color.

Baller Shoes

"Tennis but make it FASHION…" Roach summed up Zendaya's second Loewe look , worn to a photocall in Rome on April 8. There's a lot to break down here, starting with the actress' sporty holographic silver dress with black trimming, a deep V-neckline, pleated miniskirt and drop waistline. Then there's her hair, which was pinned up in a flirty shoulder-length updo with curled ends. But her shoes are what made this a winning outfit.

Daniele Venturelli/WireImage

Loewe is known for pulling off out-of-the-box designs (you've definitely seen the label's three-dimensional anthurium on the runway and on stars, including Zendaya). This time, Anderson stepped into an entirely new shoe game with these white stilettos, featuring a neon yellow tennis ball punctured through the heels. Talk about making every step count!

Taylor Swift UK tour locations: What cities will Taylor play in?

As mentioned above, Taylor Swift's UK and Ireland tour locations are as follows:

For The Eras Tour, it's possible that Taylor will also add more dates due to demand when tickets go on sale. We'll keep you posted with any updates.

How much will the tickets to Taylor Swift's tour be in the UK?

Below are the prices based on the official confirmed price list for Wembley Stadium:

• Front standing right: £175.25
• Front standing left: £175.25
• General Admission standing: £110.40
• Level 1 and Level 5 seating: £58.65 - £194.75

The prices for the Dublin dates have not yet been confirmed. Fans will get a clearer idea of the Dublin prices when presales begin on Friday 14th July.

Will Taylor Swift's The Eras Tour setlist be the same in the UK?

Historically, Taylor rarely edits her setlists much from country to country. Taylor currently performs two surprise songs on The Eras Tour each night, while the setlist remains the same. However, given that The Eras Tour is already Taylor's biggest tour to date, and will likely have significant gaps between legs, anything is possible.

As it stands, Taylor Swift and Speak Now are almost entirely absent from The Eras Tour setlist but it doesn't have to stay that way. Taylor is set to release Speak Now (Taylor's Version ) on July 7th and it's possible that Taylor will add more Speak Now songs to the setlist once her version is released.

The setlist could possibly have some changes by the time it reaches the UK.

What do you think? Will you be getting tickets to see Taylor in the UK?

Thanks for contacting us. We've received your submission.

No need to “Dream On” much longer.

Aerosmith has finally announced the rescheduled dates of their ‘Peace Out’ farewell tour with special guests The Black Crowes and Teddy Swims on select dates.

The 40-concert jaunt will take the Rock and Roll Hall of Famers to arenas all over North America from September 2024 up until February 2025.

Notable shows include stops at Newark, NJ’s Prudential Center on Saturday, Dec. 28 and New York’s Madison Square Garden on Feb. 23, 2025.

Their last gig is scheduled for Feb. 26, 2025 at Buffalo’s KeyBank Center .

This upcoming trek will be the second attempt at rescheduling the tour; Steven Tyler sustained vocal cord damage at a Sept. 9, 2023 concert in Long Island — just three shows into their run — and the band had to postpone indefinitely.

“All previously purchased tickets will be honored for the rescheduled shows,” Aerosmith shared on Instagram .

If you haven’t gotten tickets yet and want to sing along to “Sweet Emotion,” “Walk This Way,” “Don’t Want To Miss A Thing” and so many more hits one last time, tickets can be scooped up for all ‘Peace Out’ concerts as soon as today.

Although inventory isn’t available on Ticketmaster until Friday, April 12, fans who want to ensure they have tickets ahead of time can purchase on sites like Vivid Seats before tickets are officially on sale.

Vivid Seats is a secondary market ticketing platform, and prices may be higher or lower than face value, depending on demand.

They have a 100% buyer guarantee that states your transaction will be safe and secure and will be delivered before the event.

The original Aerosmtih lineup won’t be fully intact on this run of concerts.

Yes, lead singer Steven Tyler, guitarist Joe Perry, bassist Tom Hamilton and rhythm guitarist Brad Whitford are slated to perform at all shows.

However, drummer Joey Kramer will be sitting this run of shows out to “focus his attention on his family and health” according to  AP News .

Kramer, 72, will be replaced by John Douglas who has drummed with the band since 2019.

Aerosmith set list

Aerosmith got three shows deep into their ‘Peace Out’ Farewell Tour before postponing.

For a closer look, here’s what they played at a recent live show courtesy of  Set List FM :

01.) “Back in the Saddle” 02.) “Same Old Song and Dance” 03.) “Rag Doll” 04.) “Livin’ on the Edge” 05.) “Janie’s Got a Gun” 06.) “No More No More” 07.) “Cryin’” 08.) “Adam’s Apple” 09.) “Hangman Jury” 10.) “Seasons of Wither” 11.) “Movin’ Out” 12.) “Love in an Elevator” 13.) “Stop Messin’ Around” (Fleetwood Mac cover) 14.) “I Don’t Want to Miss a Thing” 15.) “Rats in the Cellar” 16.) “Sweet Emotion” 17.) “Toys in the Attic”

The Black Crowes

On all dates except their opener when they’ll perform with Teddy Swims, Aerosmith will be joined by  The Black Crowes aka Rolling Stone’s “best new band of 1990.”

The band, known for mega hits “Hard To Handle” and “She Talks To Angels,” is also conducting a solo tour of their own this year including a show at New York’s Radio City Music Hall on April 27.

Steven Tyler controversy

In 1973, the 25-year-old Tyler was given guardianship of 16-year-old Julia Holcomb so the two could live together.

After a tumultuous three-year relationship, the two broke up.

Nearly 50 years later, Holcomb — who now goes by Julia Misley — filed a lawsuit in December 2022. In the suit, she claimed Tyler sexually assaulted her, forced her to abort their child, and convinced her to drink and take drugs after he promised to serve as her guardian.

In the trial, Tyler alleged the relationship was consensual and had immunity because of his guardian status.

Legal experts have since said “caregiver immunity” does not exist if you sexually abuse the person you’ve taken in.

“The lawsuit came in the final days of California’s Child Victims Act, which temporarily lifted the statute of limitations for survivors of childhood sexual abuse to come forward with their allegations,” Consequence of Sound reported.

Jeanne Bellino, another minor that was sexually abused by Tyler in the 1970s, also filed a lawsuit against him; US District Judge Lewis Kaplan threw the case out this February because she “had waited too long to sue Tyler under a New York City law protecting victims of gender-motivated violence,” Reuters wrote.

“(Kaplan) said Bellino did not qualify for a two-year window to pursue claims that would otherwise extend beyond statutes of limitations, because she did not allege that Tyler’s conduct posed a “serious risk of physical injury.”

The best photos of Taylor Swift's Eras Tour — so far

• Taylor Swift has shattered records and moved markets with The Eras Tour.
• The tour heads to Europe this summer with a few additional US stops in the fall.
• Photos show Swift performing in a multitude of costumes with guests like Ice Spice and Haim.

Taylor Swift is not only on top of the world — she's traversing it on her record-breaking Eras Tour.

Celebrating 17 years of her genre-spanning music with tributes to the songs, costumes, and Easter eggs that have made her a global superstar, The Eras Tour is the first-ever tour to gross over $1 billion in revenue.

The tour has made Swift a billionaire and boosts the economies of every city it visits with an estimated $4.6 billion in US consumer spending connected to the concerts. Swift's opening shows in Glendale, Arizona, generated more local revenue than the Super Bowl.

Here are photos that capture some of the most memorable moments of The Eras Tour — so far. After completing legs in the US, Mexico, Brazil, Japan, Australia, and Singapore, Swift continues on to Europe this summer and circles back to the US in the fall.

The Eras Tour has boosted local economies, with Taylor Swift fans spending thousands on travel, hotels, and restaurants in concert cities worldwide.

Trading friendship bracelets has also become a staple of the concert experience, inspired by a lyric in Swift's song "You're On Your Own Kid."

Fans come dressed in costumes representing Swift's many eras of music.

Swift's Versace bodysuit sparkled during the opening number of her March 2023 show in Las Vegas.

The spotlight shone on Swift at the Mercedes-Benz Stadium in Atlanta in April 2023.

Swift received a standing ovation after performing "Champagne Problems" in Nashville in May 2023.

She braved the pouring rain while performing in Foxborough, Massachusetts.

Rapper Ice Spice joined Swift at New Jersey's MetLife Stadium to perform their "Karma" collaboration featured on a deluxe edition of Swift's 10th album, "Midnights."

To celebrate the release of "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)," Swift brought out the koi-fish guitar from her Speak Now Tour to play "Long Live" in Kansas City, Missouri, in July 2023.

She also brought out Presley Cash, Joey King, and Taylor Lautner for the premiere of the "I Can See You" music video from "Speak Now (Taylor's Version)."

Haim opened for Swift and later joined her onstage at her shows in Santa Clara, California.

Thousands of fans' wristbands lit up in rainbow colors during the singer's "Lover" set in Inglewood, California, in August 2023.

During her "Fearless" set in Inglewood, Swift took a break from strumming her sparkly guitar to create a heart shape with her hands.

At the same show, Swift surprised fans with the news that "1989 (Taylor's Version)" would be available in October 2023.

When The Eras Tour came to Brazil in November, the famous Christ the Redeemer statue featured a message dedicated to the singer and Swifties who flew in from around the world.

A young fan traded friendship bracelets with Swift at a show in São Paulo.

She nailed the choreography in her "Reputation" era in Sydney in February.

The "Reputation" set also featured looks from Swift's past eras during "Look What You Made Me Do."

Opening act Sabrina Carpenter sang "White Horse" with Swift during the acoustic set in Sydney.

Wearing sparkling fringe jackets, Swift and her backup dancers took their final bows after performing in Melbourne, Australia.

Music legend to play last ever gig at Glastonbury 2024 weeks after wrapping up final tour in London

• Ellie Henman , Bizarre Editor

LULU is planning to go out with a Boom Bang-a-Bang after announcing her retirement from touring this year.

I can exclusively reveal that the Scottish singer is heading to Worthy Farm in June to play one final set at Glastonbury .

Her last ever tour will wrap up at the London Palladium on Wednesday next week but Lulu will soon announce this very exciting final date.

She played her first and only gig at the festival nine years ago and will bow out with a huge set in the Field of Avalon.

A source said: “Lulu is going to be announced as a performer at Glastonbury next week.

"It’s a massive deal for her and she can’t wait to play the Avalon stage.

“When Glasto organiser Emily Eavis got in touch about going down to the farm she couldn’t turn it down.

“It will be an emotional moment for her as it’s the last time she will ever play Glastonbury.

“It was magical for her when she last played on that same stage in 2015.”

Lulu, whose ten Top Ten singles include Relight My Fire with Take That — which hit the top spot in 1993 — has said that playing at Worthy Farm was one of the best gigs of her career.

She added: “The roar from the crowd was deafening.

"I was very surprised, as I didn’t really know what to expect. It was just fantastic and I had so much fun.

“My daughter-in-law Alana took the best picture afterwards of my son Jordan and I laughing backstage.

“And she made me a mug as a present for my birthday with the photo on it.

“On the back it says, ‘My mother just rocked Glasto’. I drink out of that mug every day now. I love it.”

I told in February that Lulu was preparing to hang up her microphone after a six-decade career.

Fans who have seen her performing on her Champagne For Lulu tour so far have raved about how good she sounds, which is impressive given she is just five years away from turning 80.

Lulu said of her final live dates: “This is my farewell tour, with family and friends.

“Because last year I did a tour that was kind of gruelling — it was successful, it went well — but you need an army to be a success in your career these days.”

I can’t wait to see her at Glasto — it’ll be a set to Shout about.

VICK'S SWIFT STROLL

VICK HOPE has a flare for style.

The Radio 1 DJ was spotted enjoying a break from the non-stop rain outside Broadcasting House in London.

She admitted this week to being a secret Taylor Swift fan but said she couldn’t listen to her songs when husband Calvin Harris with Vick, was around – because he dated her.

Vick said: “As soon as my husband goes away, I listen to Taylor.

“That’s just when I get my little fill, just a couple of songs, get it out of my system and then it’s done.”

Better not show Calvin your Spotify wrapped, Vick.

Just in case.

BELL: SOME MIGHT SAY REUNION IS POSSIBLE

OASIS guitarist Andy Bell is convinced the band will reunite despite Liam and Noel Gallagher ’s constant snipes at each other.

They split 15 years ago after an almighty row but Andy, who is also in the band Ride, said he is quietly confident they will get back together.

Asked on Virgin Radio if he thought reuniting would ever be on the cards, Andy who played with Oasis from 1999 to 2009, said: “I’m going to say a qualified yeah, I think they probably will.

“I don’t think it looks likely right now but I think life is long, isn’t it?

“As a Roses fan, I remember the Stone Roses reunion happened, and that happened completely against the way things were looking.

“At the time they were not getting on at all and there was a lot of bad blood in the press and stuff with the Roses then suddenly you were hearing about gigs and all the Roses fans around the world rejoiced.

“So we could see something like that with Oasis.”

Liam, top left, who has been very vocal about wanting to reunite with Noel, responded to Andy’s interview yesterday saying: “Andy Bell from Ride, the shoe- gazing phenomenon, should really not be getting people’s hopes up. It’s not big and it’s not clever.”

Pot, kettle, Liam.

MAND OVER BOARD

THINK Amanda Holden might have been watching a little too much Below Deck on Netflix.

The Heart FM DJ , who returned to work on Monday after spending Easter with her kids, took a trip on board a posh yacht to model her new clothing range with Lipsy.

The collection, which includes bikinis, summer dresses and cover-ups, is on sale now.

At 53, Amanda has never looked in better shape and if I look as good as her in 18 years, I’ll be laughing.

THEY had a love-in backstage at The Brit Awards in February after Dua Lipa handed Kylie Minogue her Global Icon gong.

Now Dua is paying Kylie the ultimate compliment.

We can reveal she has used Kylie’s video for her 2003 hit Slow as inspiration for her video for new single, Illusion.

Insiders told us it was filmed at the same location, the Montjuic swimming pool in Barcelona, Spain.

Dua will drop the promo for illusion this week.

It’s great to see women supporting each other.

RIHANNA: I WANT A BABY GIRL

SHE was the soundtrack to my boozy years at Leeds Uni – and with her Superbowl 2023 half-time show Rihanna proved she is still one of the greatest performers of all time.

But the singer is now playing down rumours that she is on the cusp of making a return to the charts.

She is instead focusing on expanding her family with rapper ASAP Rocky.

The pair already have sons Rza and Riot and Rihanna said: “I would go for more than two.

"I would try for my girl. But of course if it’s another boy, it’s another boy.

“The only thing that I knew I wanted, or that I could imagine, was motherhood.

"I didn’t know how it would come but it is the best part of my journey so far.”

Rihanna has been dating Rocky , as she calls him, since 2020, after a long friendship turned into romance.

In a rare chat with Interview magazine, she said: “Covid sped up our relationship.

"And had it not been for Covid, we would’ve taken a lot more time to get comfortable with each other, to even know that we were ready.

“I mean, we didn’t even really talk about it. There was no denying it.

"It was the best thing that ever happened to us. It just happened.”

Rihanna, who previously dated Chris Brown and Drake, added: “I let God lead and just let go.

“In previous relationships I tried and tried and tried my best, and you still feel like it’s not enough.

“So when someone sees you completely, and believes in you, and thinks you’re worthy of being the mother of their kids, it’s a great feeling.

“I felt the same about him. I knew he would be a great dad.”

AARON BACK IN BLACK

HE’S been offered the chance to take centre stage as the next 007 but Aaron Taylor-Johnson was in a supporting role at the Back To Black premiere after-party.

Looking sharp in this black leather jacket and strides, left, he was by his wife Sam's side at the bash at 100 Wardour Street in London’s Soho following the screening in Leicester Square.

She directed the film about the late, great Amy Winehouse’s life, which has been well received by her family.

David Furnish and Nick Cave and were also at the party, along with Marisa Abela who plays Amy, and Jack O'Connell, who features as her ex-partner Blake Fielder-Civil.

The film, which hits cinema screens on Friday, is a Hollywood-friendly tribute to Amy’s life.

And while some snobby critics have written it off, I think it’s a brilliant celebration of one of our country’s most talented singers.

STONES SAVE A SHOP

THE Rolling Stones have always been pretty natty dressers.

Now Mick Jagger , Keith Richards and Ronnie Wood have pumped in cash to bring their favourite clothing store back to life.

The trio are lifelong fans of Granny Takes A Trip, a boutique on the Kings Road in West London which shut in 1979, and are preparing to relaunit the brand online.

A source said: “Mick, Keith and Ronnie have invested in Granny and it’s new website will go live today.

“It’s a really cool shop which stocks one-of-a-kind pieces and when the opportunity came up for them to invest and support it they jumped at the chance.

"The Stones’ touch can now be seen on the brand, with shoppers getting emails with the sign-off line ‘Satisfaction, always’.”

The rockers, who kick off their Hackney Diamonds tour in Houston, Texas, on April 28, spent a lot of cash at the iconic store during the Sixties.

Well, a lot of cash in old money, as a receipt for Keith proved.

The handwritten note from 1967 and signed by him was auctioned for more than £1,500 when it was dug out a few years ago.

NEWS... BUT NOT AS YOU KNOW IT

Ricky Martin’s not-so-little Ricky gets very excited after lapdance during Madonna set

Madonna fans got more than they bargained for at her recent concert as they were convinced Ricky Martin became visibly aroused during an incredibly steamy set.

The legendary musician is in the middle of her Celebration tour , marking 50 years of her iconic career .

And this week, her long-time friend, Livin’ La Vida Loca star Ricky, helped make the celebration even more star-studded .

In videos posted to social media , Ricky, 52, and Madonna, 65, can be seen sitting on stools on the catwalk, holding up signs rating young men dancing steamily for them.

Ricky eagerly jumped into the zone, and was soon getting an almighty lapdance from two men, who stripped off to leave very little to the imagination.

While Ricky appeared to be having a very good time being subjected to the lapdances, fans watching the clip from home were just as hot under the collar watching the musician — and many insisted they were watching him ‘pitching a tent’.

Clips from the X-rated segment flew across social media, with one viral tweet asking: ‘Wait Ricky Martin is that a….’

X user TJ replied ‘I know that ain’t what I think it is’ and Jzhwa said outright ‘a boner, that’s a boner’.

User Ddac_j declared ‘I would’ve been brick asf too,’ claiming one of the lapdancers ‘could get it.’

However others insisted all was not as it seems, with user diaryogtheill calling people ‘stupid’ and asking ‘have you never sat down and your pants bunched up?’

Ricky himself also shared a video of the moment, and under a clip posted to X with the caption: ‘Thank you @Madonna my love! Always fun to be invited to the party!’ fans were losing their minds completely.

User DannyWxo wrote simply ‘Daddy,’ and Joshua Suculento labeled him ‘my king’.

Matthias Reitzer declared he ‘would have fainted’ seeing it live, while Simon joked he was checking dating site Grindr ‘hoping to see Ricky was around’ and Jeremiah said ‘Ricky is so fine it hurts’.

Wait a minute Ricky Martin is that a ….. 😱 pic.twitter.com/VRKO1kRRYZ — chris evans (@notcapnamerica) April 8, 2024

And user Lorraine shared a flushed emoji and declared ‘this show is way too naughty’.

Ricky and Madonna have been friends for over 20 years, and in 1999 the pair dueted on Cuidado Con Mi Corazon (Be Careful With My Heart).

Madonna’s hugely-anticipated world tour has proved headline grabbing since it kicked off last year for multiple reasons — including an awkward moment last month when the Material Girl star told a woman to get up and dance without realising she was in a wheelchair.

‘What are you doing sitting down over there?’ Madonna is heard asking twice before strolling over to the fan in a clip shared on TikTok.

When she approached the fan, the Like A Virgin pop superstar then realised they were in a wheelchair and apologised.

‘Oh okay,’ she said when the mistake dawned on her. ‘Politically incorrect. Sorry about that. I’m glad you’re here.’

However the woman has no hard feelings toward Madge, as she told TMZ it was a simple mistake as ‘some people are in wheelchairs and can stand — she had no idea I was paralysed.’
