by · Manchester Evening News

Kylie Minogue has added further dates to her exciting 2025 UK tour - which will now see the pop princess perform in Manchester on two nights.

Last month, the Australian singer announced details of her Tension World Tour which included one night at Manchester’s AO Arena on May 19, 2025, alongside shows in Glasgow, Newcastle, Liverpool, Sheffield, London, Nottingham and Birmingham.

Following huge demand for the shows when they went on sale last week, Kylie, who is known for hits like Can’t Get You Out Of My Head and Padam Padam, has added a string of extra shows.

Tickets for the two Manchester shows are already on sale via Ticketmaster, whilst the three new shows will go on pre-sale this Wednesday (October 2) before general sale on Friday. Fans who have pre-ordered Kylie’s new album Tension II via her webstore will receive a pre-sale code.

Whilst Kylie last performed in Manchester at Castlefield Bowl in July 2019 as part of the Sounds of the City festival, it’s been ten years since Kylie has done a proper UK tour - when she performed at arenas in 2014 and 2015.

The new Tension tour has been billed as Kylie’s biggest in 13 years and will open in her home country of Australia in February next year before making its way to Asia and then the UK in May.

Speaking about the tour, the singer said: “I am beyond excited to announce the TENSION TOUR 2025. I can’t wait to share beautiful and wild moments with fans all over the world, celebrating the Tension era and more!

“It’s been an exhilarating ride so far and now, get ready for your close up because I will be calling Lights, Camera, Action … and there will be a whole lot of Padaming!”
