Bryan Adams takes So Happy It Hurts on the road in the UK.

Bryan Adams has announced a major UK and Ireland tour in 2024, which includes three special shows at the iconic Royal Albert Hall.

At each of those London dates, Adams will play one album in full: 1984'as Reckless, 1996's 18 Till I Die and last year's So Happy It Hurts, as well as a selection of his greatest hits.

• Bryan Adams tells extraordinary tale of how he came to photograph Queen Elizabeth II
• The Story of... 'Everything I Do (I Do it For You)' by Bryan Adams
• Listen to the Smooth All Time Top 500 Live Playlist on Global Player

He follows those concerts with dates in Sheffield, Coventry, Cardiff, Belfast and Dublin.

Adams said: "Our last visit to the Royal Albert Hall was such a great series of shows, it was a no-brainer to want to come back and do it again.

"However this time we have a whole new perspective on how to make it work and with three different albums. The band and I are really looking forward to it!"

Tickets for the shows go on general sale this Friday, October 13 at 9am via Ticketek.
