The Pretenders add more dates to 2024 UK tour
The Pretenders have added a handful of new dates to their 2024 UK tour which is set to kick off later this autumn.
The new dates will see Chrissie Hynde and co perform at Liverpool’s Philharmonic on October 30, York’s Barbican on October 31 and Sheffield’s City Hall on November 1. Tickets for the new dates will go on general sale this Friday (July 26) at 10am local time. Visit here to purchase tickets and check out a full list of tour dates below.
The additional gigs follow the previously announced run of headline dates that were supposed to occur back in in February and March but were moved to later in the year following Hynde suffering a knee injury.
They will now take place throughout October, with existing tickets remaining valid for the rescheduled gigs. Any customers who cannot attend the revised dates can contact their point of purchase for a refund.

In other news, Hynde recently praised Taylor Swift after attending one of her ‘Eras’ tour shows.
The frontwoman took to her official Instagram account and shared: “I saw Taylor Swift (you may have heard of her) in concert the other day. Just shows you what a girl with a guitar can do. Last time I loved a show that much was Aldous Harding. You remember me raving about it.
“So, if you haven’t already – go out there and get yourselves a guitar. You’ll never be alone again as long as you have it by your side. See y’all soon!”
