“I am truly excited to return to the UK and Ireland next year. This year has been a particularly special one for me, as I celebrated the 30th anniversary of my career with some unforgettable performances, such as Hyde Park. The energy and warmth I felt there were incredible, and it left such a lasting impression that I knew I had to come back. I can’t wait to share more beautiful moments with my fans, and I know these upcoming concerts will be just as magical and memorable.” – Andrea Bocelli
Andrea Bocelli is the most successful classical artist of all time – he’s performed for Popes, Presidents, Prime Ministers and royalty, sang in many of the greatest concert halls and opera houses. As one of the most recognisable voices in the entertainment industry and revered by fans internationally, Andrea Bocelli has been entertaining audiences for 30 years, counting nearly 90 million records sold worldwide. In addition to his sold-out arena-sized concert events and record-breaking live-streams, Bocelli has shared his talents at many major events including the Olympic Games, the World Cup, Global Citizen, and the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee at Buckingham Palace. He has earned a Golden Globe, seven Classical BRITs and seven World Music Awards, plus a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame.
Drawing millions in with his popular crossover appeal, Bocelli has collaborated with iconic opera singers such as Pavarotti as well as a host of A-list pop stars including Ed Sheeran, Ariana Grande, Céline Dion, Tony Bennett, Dua Lipa, and many more.
This special announcement comes during a milestone year for Bocelli, who celebrates 30 years of his career in 2024. This summer, Bocelli became the first classical artist to headline London’s BST Hyde Park, a beautiful and historic show where the tenor welcomed special guests including Hans Zimmer, Seal and many others. The show was celebrated across the UK, with The Times calling it an “era-defining event”.
The 30th anniversary celebrations continued with three nights at the Teatro del Silenzio in Tuscany, Italy. Bocelli again brought out the A-listers to perform his most well-known classics with him, including Shania Twain.
2024 officially marks 30 years of Andrea Bocelli’s iconic career. To commemorate his 30th anniversary, Bocelli is set to release a new Duets album on October 25th via Decca Records / Sugar Music, featuring a variety of Bocelli’s most beloved collaborations with Ed Sheeran, Celine Dion, and Luciano Pavarotti, among others, as well as newly recorded tracks with Shania Twain, Chris Stapleton, Karol G, and more. The celebration will continue throughout the fall with the release of his concert film, Andrea Bocelli 30: The Celebration, which chronicles Bocelli’s three-day July concert event in Italy, in theatres this November.
In another landmark year for Bocelli, these major UK and Ireland dates for 2025 are not to be missed.
