Inhaler have added more dates to their 2025 UK tour due to “huge demand” – find all the details below.

The Irish band will hit the road early next year in support of their third studio album ‘Open Wide’, which is due to arrive on February 7 via Polydor (pre-order/pre-save here).

Kicking off in Leeds on the day of the record’s release, the upcoming trek also includes stops in Manchester, Birmingham, Nottingham, London, Brighton, Glasgow and Newcastle.

Now, Inhaler have confirmed second headline shows in London, Glasgow and Manchester following a “huge demand” for tickets in yesterday’s pre-sale (November 6).

Tickets for all dates go on general sale at 9:30am GMT tomorrow (November 8) – you’ll be able to buy yours here.

Inhaler’s 2025 UK tour dates are:

FEBRUARY 
07 – O2 Academy, Leeds 
08 – O2 Apollo, Manchester
10 – O2 Academy, Birmingham 
11 – Rock City, Nottingham
13 – O2 Academy Brixton, London
14 – O2 Academy Brixton, London (new date)

15 – Brighton Centre, Brighton
17 – O2 Academy, Glasgow
18 – O2 Academy, Glasgow (new date)

19 – Newcastle, O2 City Hall
21 – O2 Apollo, Manchester (new date)

Following their run of UK gigs, Inhaler will head to Europe in the spring for performances in Madrid, Barcelona, Paris, Milan, Berlin and other cities. Blossoms are scheduled to support the group on these dates.

Inhaler have already previewed the forthcoming ‘Open Wide’ with the recent single ‘Your House’.

During a new interview with NME, frontman Elijah Hewson explained: “The song is about chasing some sort of destructive force in your own life, essentially just wanting something that’s not good for you.”

Drummer Ryan McMahon added: “We’ve never released a song that sounds anything like it. Both sonically and musically, it covers a lot of different territories that we were exploring on the album while we were writing and recording it.”

Hewson also spoke about working on the album with producer Kid Harpoon (Harry Styles, Florence + The Machine, Haim).

“It was so fun, we had such a great time,” he said. “He and Brian Rajaratnam were an amazing team to work with. We did it in London at RAK Studios and seeing all the different bands on the walls made us think, ‘OK, we really need to step up here’ and pretend like we know what we are doing in front of Tom.”

He continued: “He has his moments, but he, overall, had this ease of being in the studio and wanting to enjoy every minute of it so it didn’t feel like he was stressing us out at any point. It was just like, ‘Let’s just enjoy making this thing, and then at the end, we’ll just see what we have’, and that was really refreshing.”

Meanwhile, Inhaler have been announced as the opening act for Blossoms at the Scarborough Open Air Theatre on July 10 next year, with tickets for that show available here.
