Idles will stop for extra dates in Manchester and London during their UK and Ireland tour next year after it went on sale earlier this week.

Added to the original night of May 20th, 2021, at the O2 Victoria Warehouse in Manchester is a second gig 24 hours later, while there’s now a third at the Brixton Academy in London the following month.




Also on the itinerary are Glasgow, Newcastle, Cardiff, Birmingham, Sheffield and Dublin as Idles hope the spring of 2021 will afford them a first chance to tour their forthcoming Ultra Mono album. Due to current coronavirus restrictions, more immediately they’re playing a series of live streamed Abbey Road sessions.
