bush s uk tour returns

Legendary rock band Bush has announced their long-awaited return to British shores with a five-date arena tour scheduled for November 2025, marking their first major UK performances in eight years.

After an eight-year absence, Bush is finally coming home with five massive arena shows across the UK.

The tour will see the group, fronted by Gavin Rossdale, performing at prominent venues across the country including Motorpoint Arena in Nottingham on November 5, Utilita Arena in Cardiff on November 6, and AO Arena in Manchester on November 8.

The national circuit continues with shows at Birmingham’s Utilita Arena on November 12 before culminating in a headline performance at London’s OVO Arena Wembley on November 13.

The Wembley date represents a significant homecoming for the British-formed band, taking place in the iconic 12,500-capacity venue known for hosting major rock and pop events throughout its history.

Bush’s setlists from recent European performances suggest UK fans can expect a mix of classic hits and newer material during the approximately 90-minute shows.

Staples like “Everything Zen,” “Machinehead,” and “Swallowed” have featured prominently alongside tracks from their recent releases, including “The Land of Milk and Honey,” “Flowers on a Grave,” and their latest single “I Beat Loneliness.”

The tour announcement follows the band’s extended absence from performing full tours in their home country, with their last significant UK presence dating back to 2017.

Despite this prolonged gap, Bush’s enduring popularity is evidenced by their booking of major arenas across multiple cities rather than smaller venues. The band continues to maintain a strong fanbase, as demonstrated by the 14,649 attendances recorded across their previous concerts according to fan submission data.

All shows will take place in indoor, multi-use arenas with strong transport links, positioned in city centers for maximum accessibility.

While specific ticket pricing has not been revealed, fans can purchase tickets through the official Bush website and major ticketing platforms.

The band has carefully planned their release strategy for the tour announcement, building anticipation through strategic social media campaigns before officially confirming the dates.

The UK dates are positioned as the winter highlight of Bush’s touring schedule, following previously announced legs in Europe and the United States.

No additional UK performances beyond the five confirmed arena shows have been announced, making these November 2025 dates the only opportunity for British fans to see the band’s return.

Fans attending previous shows have praised Rossdale for his high energy performance and engaging interactions with the audience throughout their concerts.

The band has launched a comprehensive social media advertising campaign to promote the tour, utilizing targeted content across platforms to reach both longtime fans and potential new listeners.
