The Gavin Rossdale-fronted band are set to hit the road next month in support of their 10th and latest studio album, ‘I Beat Loneliness’, which was released in July.

Kicking off in Nottingham on November 5, the trek also includes huge concerts on Cardiff, Manchester, Glasgow and Birmingham. The run of dates will then conclude with a performance at the OVO Arena Wembley in London on November 13.

Tickets for all the shows are on sale now – you can buy yours here.

“The reaction to ‘I Beat Loneliness’ has been brilliant,” explained Rossdale. “We’re looking forward to playing for everyone. Lots of songs to choose from. It’s been too long, and we’re thrilled to be coming. See you there!”

Bush’s 2025 UK arena tour dates are:

NOVEMBER
05 – Motorpoint Arena, Nottingham
06 – Utilita Arena, Cardiff
08 – AO Arena, Manchester
10 – OVO Hydro, Glasgow
12 – Utilita Arena, Birmingham
13 – OVO Arena Wembley, London

Last November saw Bush play an intimate show in Manchester for the MTV World Stage series. In 2023, they released a career-spanning compilation album, ‘Loaded: The Greatest Hits 1994-2023’, before heading on a North American tour in summer 2024.

This August, Rossdale paid tribute to former Mastodon guitarist Brent Hinds, recalling how the late star had saved him from “the fatally dangerous world of Xanax”.

“He spoke about its actual deadly effects, the slowing down of the body, the barely breathing,” Rossdale said. “I will always be grateful for that advice. This life can be ended in a literal moment.”

He concluded the tribute by saying that he “should have taken guitar lessons from Brent”.

Earlier this year, the frontman spoke up for young musicians, saying he “can’t work out” how they make a living via modern streaming. “It’s just terrifying because how do musicians, how do young bands get paid?” he said.
