Morrissey has just announced a huge homecoming gig, heading to Manchester this summer.
The outspoken singer and The Smiths legend will be heading to Co-op Live as part of a short run of UK dates in 2025.
His newly-announced Manchester gig is the largest by far of his 2025 shows, joined by two smaller gigs at the O2 Academy in Glasgow.
The star has announced the gigs – his only appearances in the UK this year – off the back of his sold-out 2024 tour of North America.
Morrissey will be back in Manchester for his first-ever show at the new Co-op Live arena in June.
Support in Manchester will come from Brigitte Calls Me Baby.
Morrissey is best-known as the lead singer of The Smiths, going on to create a rich catalogue of songs including There Is A Light That Never Goes Out, This Charming Man, and How Soon Is Now?
The Smiths are considered one of the world’s most influential bands and one that put Manchester firmly on the global music map.
He also has 13 solo studio albums, a string of chart-topping records, and an Ivor Novello Award for Outstanding Contribution to British music.
Tickets for Morrissey at Co-op Live in Manchester go on general sale at 9am on Friday 14 February HERE.
