In the immortal words of everyone’s favourite Scottish singer/funnyman: ‘I’m Lewis Capaldi, and I’m back, baby.’
It’s been over two years since we last heard from Capaldi, when he struggled to get through his 2023 Glasto set after being overcome with tics and losing his voice. What followed was a complete retreat from the public as he focused on his health following a recent diagnosis of Tourette's syndrome.
But the hiatus is over, and his return to the stage this weekend at Glastonbury was a real tear-jerker. Despite being a secret set, hundreds of thousands of fans showed up to show their support and sing along as Capaldi set out to ‘come and finish what I couldn't finish last time’. And that he did – this time there were no stops, pauses, or hiccups. Or dry eyes left in the crowd.
Luckily for us, it seems like Lewis has got a taste for performing again, because following his victorious Glasto comeback, he’s announced an entire UK arena tour. Warning: it may get emotional, so make sure to pack some tissues.
Here’s everything you need to know about Lewis Capaldi’s 2025 UK tour.
