Overview
To coincide with the release of their 8th studio album Sonic Highways, which came out this week to critical acclaim, Foo Fighters have announced a five-date UK stadium tour next summer, with tickets going on sale at 10am on November 21st.
The band will kick-off the tour at Sunderland's Stadium of Light, then heading on to Emirates Old Trafford in Manchester followed by London for a two-night run at Wembley Stadium connected by EE - a venue the Foo Fighters have a strong affinity with after two record setting shows in 2008.
Final stop is Scotland to bring the curtain down on the tour with what will be a momentous show at Edinburgh's Murrayfield Stadium.
Sonic Highways was recorded in eight different musical capital cities of America, with the process and related experiences documented in an eight-part docuseries broadcast on BBC Four. The result is an amazing companion to the most ambitious Foo Fighters record to date--the same is sure to be said of this stadium tour in the year of the band's 20th anniversary.
Support comes from Iggy Pop (Wembley only) and Royal Blood (Wembley & Edinburgh only).
Monday 25 May – Sunderland, Sunderland Stadium of Light
Wednesday 27 May – Manchester, Emirates Old Trafford
Friday 19 June – London, Wembley Stadium connected by EE
Saturday 20 June – London, Wembley Stadium connected by EE
Tuesday 23 June – Edinburgh, BT Murrayfield Stadium
