Last updated 9th Feb 2023
Music legend Madonna is coming to the UK in October 2023 to perform her greatest hits on The Celebration Tour. Due to popular demand, she will also be returning in December for extra dates.
The Queen of Pop plays London’s The O2 on Saturday 14th October 2023 as the opening concert of her 12-date European trek throughout the autumn. After four dates in London, she will later return in December to perform shows on 5th and 6th.
The Celebration Tour will see Madonna treat audiences to the biggest hits from her fabled career so far, and it will follow the artistic journey through four decades and pay respect to the city of New York where her career in music began.
Madonna’s European shows are part of a 35-city global tour that kicks off in North America on Saturday 15th July at Rogers Arena in Vancouver, BC with stops in Detroit, Chicago, New York, Miami and Los Angeles.
“I am excited to explore as many songs as possible in hopes to give my fans the show they have been waiting for,” says Madonna.
The Celebration Tour will offer a one-of-a-kind experience with special guest Bob the Drag Queen a.k.a. Caldwell Tidicue across all dates on the global tour.
