Paul McCartney to play first U.K. tour dates in six years

Paul McCartney is set to play his first U.K. tour dates in six years.

The Beatles icon announced on Monday that he will perform in his native Britain later this year as part of his long-running Got Back tour, marking his first U.K. tour dates since 2018.

The upcoming shows will also mark his first live performances in the U.K. since headlining Glastonbury in June 2022.

"I'm excited to be ending my year and 2024 tour dates in the UK. It's always such a special feeling to play shows on our home soil," Paul said. "It's going to be an amazing end to the year. Let's get set to party. I can't wait to see you."

The 81-year-old hitmaker is set to perform at Manchester's Co-Op Live arena on 14 and 15 December, and at London's O2 on 18 and 19 December.

The Got Back tour, which kicked off in April 2022, features music from Paul's decades-long career, including Beatles songs and his solo material.

In addition to the U.K. dates, the Hey Jude singer has also announced a string of shows in Paris and Madrid, which will follow his previously announced concerts in Uruguay, Argentina, Chile and Peru.
