Last weekend Dua Lipa kicked off the UK leg of her Radical Optimism tour in swaggering style with massive shows at London’s Wembley stadium, bringing out Jamiroquai and Charli xcx over two triumphant nights. And this week it’s Liverpool’s turn – the all-conquering pop star is at Anfield Stadium for two shows.
Dua Lipa’s current tour is in support of her third studio album Radical Optimism, which was released last year. The tour was announced shortly after her spectacular headlining performance at Glastonbury 2024, and it will see Lipa play only four dates across two UK cities this calendar year.
