After a two-year hiatus, Lewis Capaldi has announced a UK and Ireland tour for September 2025 which includes a date at Dublin's 3Arena.

Announcing the tour on social media, the Scottish singer said it is "about time I got back to work", adding to his fans "hope to see you out there".

Capaldi will play the 3Arena on Thursday, 29 September, with tickets going on sale on 10 July at 9am.

The news comes after Capaldi played a triumphant surprise set at Glastonbury on Friday 27 July, two years after a performance at the festival during which he struggled to manage his Tourette syndrome symptoms.

The musician, who announced a break from touring shortly after his performance at the festival in 2023, had just released a new song called Survive.

He told the crowd at Glastonbury: "It's so good to be back. I'm not going to say much up here today, because if I do, I think I will probably start crying.

"But it's just amazing to be here with you all, and I can't thank you all enough for coming out and coming and seeing me."
