The 80,000-capacity open-air venue Munich Messe arena will be created specifically for these shows.
“So a few months ago I got a call about a summer run of shows. I’ve been content as anything with my shows in London’s Hyde Park and my residency in Vegas, so I hadn’t had any other plans. However, I was too curious to not follow up and indulge in this idea – a one-off, bespoke pop-up stadium designed around whatever show I want to put on?,” Adele said on Instagram when the residency was first announced.
“Pretty much slap bang in the middle of Europe? In Munich? That’s a bit random, but still fabulous! Right after the Euros? Come on England! With the Olympics next door? Go on Simone! And some of my favourite artists playing shows too? Why…YES!! I haven’t played in Europe since 2016!”
Earlier this year, Adele said she would be embarking on a world tour on her next album cycle, however told fans at a Las Vegas show thay they will probably have a while to wait before she releases the follow-up to 2021’s ’30’.
