Massive Manchester gigs including Little Simz and Queens of the Stone Age go on sale today – how to get tickets

This time of year really keeps you on your toes – Manchester’s calendar is full of gigs and festivals, and new ones are being added at light speed.

There are some huge gigs going on sale this morning, with new arena shows and other massive music events announced for later in the year.

Tickets are likely to fly out for all of these, so you’ll want to be poised at your laptop and ready to start shopping from the first on-sales at around 9.30am.

There’s everything from festival favourites to legendary rockers heading back out on tour.

Here are some of the Manchester gigs going on sale today, and how you can get tickets.

Little Simz – 6 November

Little Simz has announced a brand new tour with her biggest UK gigs to date – and it will all kick off right here in Manchester this November.

The multi-award-winning rapper has already picked up awards for Best Solo Act, Best New Artist, Best New Album and even the 2022 Mercury Prize — all within the last three years.

Just over a day after shutting down the Saturday set at Parklife 2023, she announced a limited run of just four shows that promise to be her biggest yet.

You’ll find her at the O2 Victoria Warehouse on 6 November.

Tickets for Little Simz’s gig in Manchester on sale from 10am on Friday 16 June through See Tickets.

The Prodigy – 17 November

Hot off the back of their blistering headline set at Parklife, The Prodigy have announced a massive UK arena tour.

The electronic music titans will be taking to the stage at the AO Arena in November.

It’s all part of their Army of the Ants tour, which will also visit venues across the UK, supported by SOFT PLAY (formerly known as Slaves) throughout.

General sale for tickets for The Prodigy at AO Arena Manchester begins at 9.30am on Friday 16 June with See Tickets.

Queens of the Stone Age – 14 November

These rock heavyweights will soon be hitting the road again on a huge European tour, including a visit to Manchester.

The Seattle rockers have announced their The End Is Nero tour ahead of their headline slot of The Other Stage at Glastonbury.

You’ll be able to see the group back on stage in support their upcoming eighth studio album In Times New Roman…, which is due for release today.

Tickets for Queens of the Stone Age at AO Arena Manchester go on sale at 10am on Friday.

Bring Me The Horizon – 13 January 2024

Bring Me the Horizon have had a heck of a few years, selling more than five million albums globally, playing to sold-out audiences in more than 50 counties, and wowing crowds at festivals all over the planet.

The metal group, formed in Sheffield way back in 2004, are on their way back to the live circuit early next year with their Post Human: NeX GEn tour.

You’ll catch them at the massive AO Arena on Saturday 13 January 2024.
