British rock band Wolf Alice have announced their return to the stage, rescheduling their UK & Ireland tour.

The band were forced to postpone the tour originally due to the current rise in COVID cases.

Demand for tickets was so high, they’ve added a Belfast gig at the legendary Telegraph Building on September 1st.

All tickets for their January 24th show at the 3Olympia Theatre in Dublin are now valid for their August 29th 2022 date. Anyone with a ticket for their January 25th show at the 3Olympia Theatre will be allowed access to the August 30th gig.

It has been a decade since the band began as a duo of Ellie Rowsell (vocals) and Joff Oddie (guitar and vocals). They later became a four-piece, with Joel Amey (drums and vocal) and Theo Ellis (bass) joining the group.

Since then, the band saw their 2015 debut album My Love Is Cool soar to #2 on the UK charts, their sophomore album Visions Of A Life win the 2018 Hyundai Mercury prize, and a GRAMMY nomination for Best Rock Performance.

The band played a massive 187 shows on the Visions Of A Life world tour - including a sold out Alexandra Palace, 2 sold out dates at Brixton Academy, and a set on the Pyramid Stage at Glastonbury.

How to get tickets:

Tickets will go on sale tomorrow (Friday 21st January) at 10am from ticketmaster.ie
