Hot off the back of a summer run of outdoor and stadium gigs that saw Stereophonics play to over 500,000 fans across the UK and Europe, today (July 7) the legendary Welsh band has announced a brand new UK arena tour. Set to perform across the country in December 2025, Stereophonics will play gigs in a number of UK cities including Glasgow, Manchester, Birmingham and London.
The announcement comes after the band roused crowds with their dazzling visuals and soaring melodies at their sold-out show at London’s Finsbury Park last Friday and playing a showstopping headline set at the Isle of Wight festival earlier this month. This week, the band will play two epic sold-out homecoming shows at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium on July 11 and 12. Stereophonics will kick off their arena tour in Nottingham on December 4 and later performing at Co-op Live in Manchester on December 12 before their final show in London on December 18.

The band recently released their much-anticipated thirteenth studio album, Make ‘em Laugh, Make ‘em Cry, Make ‘em Wait, which debuted at Number 1, marking their ninth Official Number 1 Album. Stereophonics have been going strong for three decades now and are best known for songs such as Dakota, Maybe Tomorrow and Handbags and Gladrags.
