Where to buy Kylie Minogue tickets for 2025 UK tour
The Padam Padam singer has unveiled details of her Tension tour
Kylie Minogue is back with a bang. The Australian pop star, 56, has thrilled fans by unveiling details of her biggest world tour in more than a decade. She will perform nine UK concerts, including two dates at London's O2 Arena, to celebrate the release of her upcoming album Tension II.
The announcement comes hot on the heels of Minogue's headline performance at British Summer Time festival in Hyde Park this summer. She said she is "beyond excited" to be hitting the road again next year, and has promised to deliver "beautiful and wild moments".
But which UK cities is Minogue visiting, and how can fans buy tickets? Here's everything you need to know to ensure you don't miss out.
How can I buy Kylie Minogue tickets?
Tickets for Minogue's 2025 Tension tour will go on general sale on Friday, 27 September at 10am, the same day as the release of her new single Lights Camera Action. The pre-sale will take place on Thursday, 26 September.
Tickets will be available via Ticketmaster, with prices yet to be confirmed.
Where is Kylie Minogue performing?
Minogue's 2025 tour will kickstart in her home country, Australia, before heading to Asia. It will reach the UK on 16 May, where she will perform at Glasgow's OVO Hydro. The four-time Brit winner will also perform in Newcastle, Manchester, Liverpool, Sheffield, London, Nottingham and Birmingham.
The globe-trotting arena tour is Minogue's biggest since her Aphrodite: Les Folies Tour in 2011. See her full list of 2025 UK tour dates below:

23 May – Sheffield, Utilita Arena
26 May – London, The O2
27 May – London, The O2

31 May – Birmingham, BP Pulse Live
Which songs will be on the setlist?
Minogue's setlist will remain under wraps until the tour kicks off, although it's likely to be packed with her biggest hits. Her recent run of summer 2024 shows, including the Hyde Park gig, featured fan favourites such as Spinning Around, Love At First Sight and Can't Get You Out of My Head.
The career-spanning setlist also included last year's viral smash Padam Padam, which landed her a first UK top-10 solo single since 2010's All the Lovers.
Her longevity in the music industry means she has no shortage of material to choose from. She made her debut back in 1987, with bubblegum-pop hit I Should Be So Lucky, and is the only female artist to have had a UK chart-topping album in five consecutive decades.
Earlier this year she took home the global icon award at the Brits and won the best pop dance recording Grammy for Padam Padam.
In a new statement, the pop star said: "I am beyond excited to announce the Tension tour 2025. I can't wait to share beautiful and wild moments with fans all over the world, celebrating the Tension era and more. It's been an exhilarating ride so far, and now get ready for your close up because I will be calling Lights, Camera, Action… and there will be a whole lot of Padaming."
Is Kylie releasing a new album?
Yes, Minogue's Tension tour will coincide with the release of her new album Tension II. Billed as a "sequel" to her 2023 album Tension, it will feature nine new tracks, plus previously released collaborations with The Blessed Madonna, Bebe Rexha, Tove Lo, Orville Peck, Diplo and Sia.
The album will be released on Friday, 18 October.
