Their first UK outing in over five years, the tour will kick off at Manchester’s AO Arena on 15 July 2025, taking in Birmingham, Brighton and closing at London’s OVO Arena Wembley on 19 July.
Joining as special guests for all four dates are Blackberry Smoke, who have earned a reputation for their dynamic live performances, making them the perfect complement to the tour.
Johnny Van Zant, lead vocalist and brother of the late Ronnie Van Zant, expressed his excitement, saying: “It’s about the legacy of Lynyrd Skynyrd, and what it stands for, what the fans are all about. There’s nothing like getting out there, playing a great show with Skynyrd and seeing people love this music.”
Emerging from Jacksonville, Florida, in 1973, Lynyrd Skynyrd has left an indelible mark on the world of rock music. With over 60 albums, billions of streams, and tens of millions of records sold, the band remains a cultural force that transcends generations.
A donation of a £1 from every ticket sold on the UK tour will go to the newly launched Live Trust, a new funding initiative from LIVE that will offer much needed financial support to those working across live music. The Live Trust will initially support the grassroots music sector that is such a vital part of the music ecosystem – from venues and artists to festivals and promoters.
Presale tickets are on sale from 10am on Wednesday 22nd January, while general sale opens at 10am on Friday 24thJanuary from aegpresents.co.uk.
