Bob Dylan announces 2024 ‘Rough And Rowdy Ways’ UK tour, including Royal Albert Hall shows
Bob Dylan has announced a UK headline tour for later this year – including a trio of shows at the Royal Albert Hall in London. Find all the details below.
The legendary singer-songwriter is due to bring his ongoing ‘Rough And Rowdy Ways’ world tour to these shores in November. He’ll play 10 gigs throughout the month, kicking off with a performance at BIC Windsor Hall in Bournemouth (November 1).
From there, Dylan will head to Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena (3), Edinburgh’s Usher Hall (5, 6), Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena (8) and Wolverhampton’s Civic Hall (9, 10).
He’ll then head to the historic Royal Albert Hall in London for three concerts on November 12, 13 and 14.
The forthcoming tour is in partnership with Yondr – which will prohibit the use of video cameras and mobile phones at the shows, making the occasion even more unique. Dylan’s previous UK dates in 2022 were also “non-phone events”.
His stage time for each show on the 2024 tour will be 7:30pm, with the exception of London’s Royal Albert Hall where Dylan will begin his sets at the later time of 8:00pm.
Tickets go on general sale at 10am BST this Friday (July 19) – you’ll be able to buy yours here.

Last month, the music icon kicked off the ‘Outlaw Music Festival Tour’ with a typically unpredictable setlist of ’50s blues and country covers and deep cuts.
In May, footage of Timothée Chalamet as Dylan in the upcoming biopic A Complete Unknown emerged online. The actor was previously spotted in New Jersey shooting a scene for the film alongside Monica Barbaro.
