The dates come in celebration of her sharing her new album ‘Princess Of Power’ over the summer – her first since 2021’s ‘Ancient Dreams In A Modern Land’.

It marked her sixth studio effort, and was first previewed earlier this year with the singles ‘Cuntissimo’, ‘Cupid’s Girl’ and ‘Butterfly’.

Today (October 27) the singer and songwriter formerly known as Marina And The Diamonds has announced six shows taking place around the UK next year.

The dates kick off in Bristol at the Beacon on May 27, and continue the following night with a gig at Alexandra Palace in London. From there, MARINA will perform at the Aviva Studios in Manchester, before wrapping up the shows with slots at Glasgow’s O2 Academy, Cardiff’s Depot, and Birmingham’s O2 Academy on June 1, 2 and 3 respectively.

Earlier this year, MARINA gave ‘Cuntissimo’, ‘Cupid’s Girl’ and ‘Butterfly’ their live debuts at the first weekend of Coachella 2025 – her first performances of the year. Other tour dates have included festival slots across the US at Governors Ball, Bonnaroo and Lollapalooza.

The announcement of the UK tour comes following the singer sharing a ‘Deluxe Edition’ of the album last week, featuring five previously-unreleased tracks: ‘Sex Is Power’, ‘How To Say Goodbye’, ‘Key To The Castle’, ‘Unfamiliar Heavens’, and a remix of ‘Everybody Knows I’m Sad’.

The singer’s last album, ‘Ancient Dreams In A Modern Land’ was given a four-star review, and described by NME as a collection of MARINA’s “most personal record” yet.

It added: “[Her] melodies and vocal hooks still don’t sound like anybody else’s. Nothing in this world could change her, and for that we should all be damn grateful.”

Speaking to NME about that album, MARINA explained that she was no longer motivated by chart success, saying she “feel[s] like that ship has sailed”.

The singer added: “I feel like, you know, I’ve had those moments, but as an artist, that’s not really what excites me anymore. It’s more like, ‘What am I interested in at the time? And what do I want to explore in my songs?’”

She also told NME that dropping “And The Diamonds” from her stage name in 2018 was a pivotal moment in her career: “I thought: ‘Anything that’s going to make me feel more authentic and more relaxed is a positive thing’. And I knew that the name was part of that.”
