The 22-date European journey will have Springsteen gracing stages from France to Sweden, with a series of UK and Ireland dates in the summer schedule. Springsteen’s tour will commence on 5th May at Cardiff’s Principality Stadium, followed by a show in Belfast at Boucher Road on the 9th. He will then perform in Kilkenny, Cork, and Dublin, with a gig at Sunderland’s Stadium of Light slated for 22nd May. The tour will circle back to the UK with a concert at London’s Wembley Stadium on July 25th. Ticket sales for the London, Sunderland, and Cardiff performances are set to launch this coming Friday, 3rd November, at 10am GMT. Those eager to attend the Irish shows can mark their calendars for Monday, 6th November, when tickets will become available at the same time.
This announcement follows a robust slate of UK shows earlier this year, including performances in Edinburgh and Birmingham, as well as two nights at London’s BST Hyde Park. The tour news comes after Springsteen’s recent health challenges with peptic ulcer disease, which forced the postponement of his 2023 tour dates. After an initial bout of illness in August and subsequent cancellations, the rest of the September dates were pushed back upon his diagnosis. Having rescheduled the impacted US dates, Springsteen reassured fans with plans for his 2024 tour to run from March through September. Meanwhile, Springsteen recently celebrated his wife and bandmate Patti Scialfa as she was inducted into the New Jersey Hall Of Fame, where he lauded her as his “secret weapon.” Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band full European tour dates: 5 May – Cardiff, Wales @ Principality Stadium (On-sale: Friday, Nov. 3 at 10am*) 9 May – Belfast, Northern Ireland @ Boucher Road (On-sale: Monday, Nov. 6 at 8am*) 12 May – Kilkenny, Ireland @ Nowlan Park (On-sale: Monday, Nov. 6 at 8am*) 16 May – Cork, Ireland @ Páirc Uí Chaoimh (On-sale: Monday, Nov. 6 at 8am*) 19 May – Dublin, Ireland @ Croke Park (On-sale: Monday, Nov. 6 at 8am*) 22 May – Sunderland, England @ Stadium of Light (On-sale Friday, Nov. 3 at 10am*) 25 May – Marseille, France @ Orange Vélodrome (On-sale Tuesday, Nov. 7 at 10am*) 28 May – Prague, Czech Republic @ Airport Letnany (On-sale Friday, Nov. 3 at 10am*) 1 June – Milan, Italy @ San Siro Stadium (On-sale Monday, Nov. 6 at 12pm*) 3 June – Milan, Italy @ San Siro Stadium (On-sale Monday, Nov. 6 at 12pm*) 12 June – Madrid, Spain @ Cívitas Metropolitano (On-sale Tuesday, Nov. 7 at 10am*) 14 June – Madrid, Spain @ Cívitas Metropolitano (On-sale Tuesday, Nov. 7 at 10am*) 20 June – Barcelona, Spain @ Estadi Olímpic (On-sale Tuesday, Nov. 14 at 10am*) 27 June – Nijmegen, Netherlands @ Goffertpark (On-sale Friday, Nov. 3 at 9am*) 2 July – Werchter, Belgium @ Werchter Park (On-sale Friday, Nov. 3 at 10am*) 5 July – Hannover, Germany @ Heinz von Heiden Arena (On-sale Wednesday, Nov. 8 at 10am*) 9 July – Odense, Denmark @ Dyrskuepladsen (On-sale Thursday, Nov. 2 at 10am*) 12 July – Helsinki, Finland @ Olympic Stadium (On-sale Monday, Nov. 6 at 11am*) 15 July – Stockholm, Sweden @ Friends Arena (On-sale Friday, Nov. 3 at 10am*) 18 July – Stockholm, Sweden @ Friends Arena (On-sale Friday, Nov. 3 at 10am*) 21 July – Bergen, Norway @ Dokken (On-sale Monday, Nov. 6 at 10am*) 25 July – London, England @ Wembley Stadium connected by EE (On-sale Friday, Nov. 3 at 10am*)Bruce Springsteen and The E Street Band delivered “the greatest show on earth” (Billboard) across Europe this past summer, and they’ll make a triumphant return to the continent in 2024 with a just-announced 22-show stadium run:
