Sophie Ellis-Bextor will bring her latest show to York Barbican on Monday, May 26 next year kicking off in Glasgow on May 24
- and taking in 15-cities in total including Manchester, Newcastle, Cardiff and Bristol, the tour culminates at the prestigious Royal Albert Hall in London.
Sophie said: “This year has been full of amazing tour dates around the world, and it has been so much fun.
"I absolutely love performing live, but it’s always an extra treat to be able to tour at home and I can’t wait to play my biggest dates in the UK yet next May and June. It will be wonderful to bring the disco fun to everyone.
"Headlining The Royal Albert Hall in London is a bit of a dream and it’s going to be very special.”
It comes as Sophie releases her new single, Freedom of the Night.
Most recently, after featuring in the epic final scene of Emerald Fennell’s film ‘Saltburn’, Sophie’s 2001 hit Murder on the Dancefloor saw a huge resurgence, charting at number 2 in the UK singles chart and 58 In the Billboard Top 100, with the song reaching over 11 billion global streams across all streaming and social platforms.
