Rick Astley is no stranger to love, and he’s spreading it far and wide across the UK and Ireland next year on the ‘Reflection’ tour. Gabrielle will be supporting Rick Astley across all dates, featuring a huge Manchester show at Co-op Live on April 17, 2026.
Rick Astley & Gabrielle will play across 12 different cities in the UK and Ireland, which include huge dates in Glasgow, London, Birmingham, and more. Astley took to Instagram to announce the news, with Never Gonna Give You Up playing away in the background.

The London show will mark his first since a headline appearance at the iconic Royal Albert Hall in 2024, as well as a show at the Roundhouse at the end of 2023. His upcoming show at the O2 is a significant jump in venue size and will give plenty more people the chance to (intentionally) be ‘Rickrolled’. The singer was also the first artist to perform at Co-op Live last May and will now be making a return to Manchester’s newest entertainment venue.
