After Kylie released her hit album Tension in 2023, which included the single 'Padam Padam', there were immediate hopes among fans that a tour would swiftly follow. Now, with Kylie set to release the repackaged Tension II, she delighted her followers by confirming their hopes with a string of dates across the world.
Kylie's concert tour is just the latest in a string of high-profile tours set to hit London in 2025. Beyonce is said to be planning 'five huge London gigs' next year, with other stars including Ariana Grande and Shakira also rumoured to hit the road as 2025 looks to be a standout year in live music. Demand continues to soar for the Oasis 2025 Tour, with extra dates in Wembley added to the band's schedule.
On Saturday, July 13, Kylie dazzled crowds at BST Hyde Park with 18 hit tracks from her 45-year career. Her latest album, ‘Tension,’ praised as ‘pop perfection’ by critics, set the stage for an unforgettable performance on the Great Oak Stage.
