Queen + Adam Lambert Announce UK And European Tour Dates For 2020
Written by Johnson Stephen on September 26, 2019
Queen + Adam Lambert have announced that they will bring their brand new, hugely anticipated ‘Rhapsody’ concert experience to UK and Europe audiences in 2020.
The all-new ‘Rhapsody’ show, already hailed as ‘a marvel of technical advances,’ will arrive in the UK and Europe in late spring, as Queen original band members Brian May and Roger Taylor team up once more with longtime front man Adam Lambert on lead vocals to perform 16 shows across eight countries from late May into early July.
The European tour will launch in Italy on May 24, with its final stop in Denmark on July 1. Along the way, it will play in the Netherlands, Belgium, France, Germany and Switzerland, as well as the UK, where dates will centre around five London shows at the O2 Arena beginning on June 2.
The only UK show outside of the capital is set for Manchester Arena on June 11. These are the only confirmed UK performances for Queen + Adam Lambert at this point.
Over the six weeks of this leg on the ‘Rhapsody’ tour, European audiences will at last have the chance to see the epic new show which has drawn awe and acclaim all through its North American run, and became Rock’s hottest ticket of the year in the USA. Ever the masters of extravagant performance and sumptuous visuals, Queen + Adam Lambert’s newest production is again the work of Stufish Entertainment Architects’ set designer Ric Lipson and lighting designer Rob Sinclair who both have a long-term association with Queen including the most recent eye-popping ‘News Of The World’ touring show.
Here’s What Queen Band Members Have To Say About The Upcoming Tour
Queen’s Roger Taylor stated: “We’re back and we’re hot.”
An enthused Brian May said: “This is a fearsome new production taking the Queen legacy to a new place. I’m well proud.”
Adam Lambert joined in saying: “I can’t wait to get back to the UK and Europe, we had a blast on our last tour, and I am so excited to bring this new show over there!”
Once again completing the tour line-up will be the band’s long-term on-stage collaborator Spike Edney on keyboards, Neil Fairclough on bass and Tyler Warren on percussion.
