Foo Fighters will return to England in June and July 2022 for four massive stadium shows.

The rock icons will open their run of shows at Manchester Emirates Old Trafford on Saturday 25th June 2022 and call in at Birmingham Villa Park (Mon 27th June) before playing two nights at London Stadium (Thu 30th June and Saturday 2nd July).

Support for the dates will come from St Vincent, Courtney Barnett, Shame, Hot Milk and Loose Articles.

It's the first time Foo Fighters have played these shores since they headline Reading & Leeds Festival in August 2019.

Enthusing about Foo Fighters’ return to England, Dave Grohl said: “We can’t f---ing wait to get back to the UK.

“It’s been far too long. Get ready to make up for lost time with some long ass nights of rock & roll.”

Tickets go on sale from Absolute Radio Tickets at 9am on Friday 20th August 2021.
