Gary Barlow is coming to Aberdeen as part of a brand new solo tour for 2025.

The singer-songwriter will arrive at the city's P&J Live on Saturday, May 24 next year as part of his 41-date The Songbook Tour. Set to be a huge celebration of his four-decade-spanning career, it will see him perform an array of songs from his back catalogue of hits with both Take That and as a solo artist.

The tour will celebrate Gary Barlow’s status as one of Britain’s most successful songwriters and record producers. As part of the group Take That, he has won eight BRIT Awards and sold over 45 million records. One of the band’s biggest hits, ‘Back For Good’, will turn 30 in March 2025. The track reached No.1 on its release in March 1995 and remaining top of the charts for four consecutive weeks, going on to become the band’s biggest-selling song of the 90’s.

This year, Gary hit the road with his fellow Take That bandmates for a huge world tour, playing sell-out shows with This Life On Tour, which saw them sell over 1 million tickets. Their album of the same name, ‘This Life’, released in 2023, scored the band their 12th No.1 album in the UK, spawning hits including ‘Windows’ and ‘This Life.’ The band also curated their own four-day festival in Malta in October - The Greatest Weekend, where they performed their album 'Everything Changes' live, in its entirety for the first time since its release in 1993.

Gary has also co-written and produced music for other renowned artists including Dame Shirley Bassey, Sir Elton John and Robbie Williams, and most recently, he wrote the song ‘Running Wild’ for JIN from Korean super group, BTS.

Rob Wicks, Managing Director at P&J Live in Aberdeen, said: “It’s been three years since we first welcomed Gary Barlow to P&J Live and we are ecstatic to see him return with his Songbook tour in 2025! Gary is a true showman with a captivating stage presence and we’re sure his fans in the north-east are ready to hear some hits along with a few Take That classics thrown in for good measure.”
