Tips to get tickets as Bruce Springsteen announces 2024 UK tour
Bruce Springsteen will be returning to the UK as part of a European stadium tour in 2024 and we can't wait.
Fresh on the heels of two sell-out shows at the BST Festival in Hyde Park in the summer, 'The Boss' has announced that he is bringing his trusty E Street Band to stages throughout the UK for four explosive nights in May and July next year. Following a recent bout of illness, the 74-year-old rock star will also be making a triumphant return to Wembley Arena for the first time since 2016, and tickets are expected to sell out quickly via Ticketmaster, Live Nation and AEG.
The new announcement was shared on the musician’s social media pages, with the statement: “Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band delivered “the greatest show on earth” ( Billboard ) across Europe this past summer, and they’ll make a triumphant return to the continent in 2024 with a just-announced 22-show stadium run.”
The tour kicks off on May 5 in Cardiff before taking in dates across Northern Ireland, Ireland, France, Czech Republic, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Finland, Sweden and Norway.
The "Glory Days" singer will be treating fans to a high-octane performance of his greatest hits in Cardiff, Belfast, Sunderland and London.

Demand for tickets to see the "Dancing in the Dark" singer and his world-famous E Street Band is expected to be huge. Follow these top tips to be in with the best chance to get yours:
- Make sure your Ticketmaster account is updated with the correct details including your full address and payment information to speed up the checkout process.
- Check that you know your login details in advance so you don't get left behind when tickets go on sale
- Log in at least 15 minutes before the sale starts
- Don't use multiple devices or browser tabs - Ticketmaster frowns upon this and it could see you lose your place
- Decide in advance what seats you want and how much you are willing to pay for them. Ticket prices are yet to be confirmed across all venues but are expected to be around £65 for seated and £120 for standing, although this could differ wildly depending on demand.
- Do not refresh your browser or you will lose your place in the queue.
- Don't give up - tickets can become available a couple of hours after the initial sale time as some buyers may have cancelled their transaction. Pop on your favourite Bruce songs of all time, sit back and have faith.
