Lana Del Rey has become the highest-selling solo artist so far for 2025 across the UK and Ireland, according to Live Nation.
The New York-born singer has sold over 300,000 tickets for her first-ever run of headline stadium dates in the two markets.
The Live Nation-produced outing will stop at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium (23 June), Glasgow Hampden Park (26 June), Liverpool’s Anfield Stadium (28 June), Aviva Stadium in Dublin (30 June) and London Wembley Stadium (3 and 4 July).
The first five dates sold out during the on-sale. A second show at the 90,000-capacity Wembley Stadium was added later and also swiftly sold out.
It was announced today that AC/DC will also embark on a stadium run in North America
It follows Del Rey’s series of 2024 headline performances, including slots at Coachella, Reading & Leeds and Rock en Seine, as well as her first stadium concert at Fenway Park, Boston, in the US. She also headlined BST Hyde Park in London in 2023.
Del Rey is represented by CAA’s Marlene Tsuchii for Europe, Asia and South America, CAA’s Carole Kinzel for North America and WME’s Brett Murrihy for Australia and New Zealand.
Other acts to have confirmed stadium gigs in the UK for next year so far include Oasis, Dua Lipa, Robbie Williams, Coldplay, Linkin Park, Imagine Dragons, Billy Joel, Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band, Stereophonics, Catfish and the Bottlemen, Stray Kids, Sam Fender, Iron Maiden.
My Chemical Romance, Olivia Rodrigo, Ed Sheeran, Dua Lipa, Imagine Dragons and Robbie Williams are also set to hit some of the world’s biggest venues next year.
It was announced today that AC/DC will also embark on a stadium run in North America – their first in nine years. The Live Nation-produced outing will visit 13 stadiums between April and May 2025.
