Rock legend adds three more UK dates to massive European tour – after thousands of fans missed out on tickets
AN AMERICAN rock legend has revealed three new UK tour dates with their iconic band.
The Dancing In The Dark hitmaker, 75, will return to Europe in May 2025, kicking off the next leg of their tour at Manchester‘s Co-op Live Arena.
Bruce Springsteen – known as “the Boss” by his legions of fans across the globe – will play two dates on May 17 and 20 at the northern city’s latest music venue.
French dates in Lille on May 24, and Marseilles, on May 31, follow before the New Jersey-born star heads back to the UK for a date at Liverpool’s Anfield Stadium on June 4.
Of course, the Atlantic City hitmaker will be accompanied by his loyal E Street Band for the expansion of the European tour – which sees a total of eight new shows to make up for previously-rescheduled dates in Marseilles, Milan and Prague.
Back in May, Bruce cancelled a slew of tour dates due to “vocal issues.”
Yet now he has delighted fans with a bolstered tour offering – giving many fans who missed out on 2024 show tickets another chance to see him.
The updated European tour leg will wrap on July 3 in Milan.
One loyal fan took to Instagram to remark: “Don’t tempt me a third time this tour Bruce!!!”
Another posted: “Jesus Christ!!! I wasn’t expecting UK again…. 3rd year running,” as a third confessed: “100 per cent going to be trying for Manchester. Never seen Bruce & E Street indoors so that in itself is enough to make me go to a third run on this tour!!!”
Another simply put: “Thanks Bruce!!!”
One then quipped: “Year three of spending all my money and annual leave on Bruce upcoming.”
Tickets for the three UK tour dates go on sale on Friday, October 11 at 10am.
Meanwhile, fans can prep for the 2025 tour with the Boss’ new documentary.
Road Diary: Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band is a Thom Zimny-directed film which will air on Hulu and Disney+ on October 25.
Back in 2023, the Born To Run icon was forced to postpone a host of shows due to a peptic ulcer.
