A general sale of tickets for the Blur shows will start on April 28th.

Blur have announced some intimate warm-up gigs for their big live return this summer.

Ahead of various festival and outdoor headline appearances around Europe, including three nights at Wembley Stadium in July, the band will be in much tighter confines when they play Colchester Arts Centre, Winter Gardens in Eastbourne, Wolverhampton’s The Halls and the Newcastle City Hall between May 19th-28th.




“I’m really looking forward to playing with my Blur brothers again and revisiting all those great songs,” Graham Coxon has said.

Blur live shows are always amazing for me. A nice guitar and an amp turned right up and loads of smiling faces.

“There’s always something really special when the four of us get in a room,” Alex James added. “It’s nice to think that on 8th July that room will be Wembley Stadium.”

“After the chaos of the last few years, it’s great to get back out to play some songs together on a summer’s day in London,” Dave Rowntree concluded. “Hope to see you there.”
