Chris Brown tour set to go ahead after singer released on £5m bail

Chris Brown’s tour looks set to go ahead after the R&B star was released on bail today.

The singer is set to play four nights at the Co-op Live in Manchester as part of his Breezy Bowl XX tour.

But the tour was thrown into doubt when Chris Brown was arrested at the luxury The Lowry hotel just weeks before his first live dates.

He was arrested on suspicion of causing grievous bodily harm on Thursday 15 May and remanded into custody.

Today, it’s been announced that the ‘Forever’ star will be freed from prison in time for his world tour – but he must pay a £5 million security fee to the court.

The 36-year-old will be able to continue with his tour as part of his bail conditions, Judge Tony Baumgartner told the court.

He’s currently facing a charge of causing grievous bodily harm with intent, relating to a bottle attack at a London nightclub two years ago against music producer Abe Diaw at Tape nightclub.

Abe Diaw has alleged that Brown ‘smashed him over the head with a bottle’ in the attack on him, at around 3am at Tape nightclub.

Chris Brown has 10 UK tour dates in the pipeline as part of his ‘Breezy Bowl XX tour’, which includes four at the Co-op Live on 15, 16, 24 June, and 3 July 2025.
