Bob Dylan Announces 2025 UK & Ireland Tour as Part of Acclaimed ‘Rough and Rowdy Ways’ Series

Bob Dylan is heading back to the UK and Ireland in autumn 2025, bringing his critically acclaimed Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour across the region for a string of highly anticipated dates. Presented by ITB, the tour promises intimate, unforgettable evenings with one of music’s most revered living legends.

The tour kicks off on 7th November at the Brighton Centre and will continue through Swansea, Coventry, Leeds, Glasgow, Belfast, Killarney, and Dublin. Tickets for all shows go on sale Friday, 18th July at 10am local time.

A Living Legend Returns to the Stage

Dylan, who first performed in the UK back in 1962 at The King & Queen pub in Fitzrovia, and later in Ireland during his historic 1966 world tour, remains an unmatched force in music. His 2020 album Rough and Rowdy Ways was hailed as one of his strongest late-era releases, dominating critic lists and delighting fans with its lyrical depth and musical sharpness.

This tour continues the legacy, offering fans a rare opportunity to witness Dylan perform in a raw, stripped-back format, surrounded by his expert touring band and celebrated songwriting catalogue.

No Phones, No Cameras—Just Music

In partnership with Yondr, these concerts will be phone-free experiences, prohibiting the use of mobile phones and video equipment. Upon arrival, audience members will be required to place devices in secure, locked pouches for the duration of the show.

This initiative, already in use during many of Dylan’s U.S. dates, has been widely praised for creating a focused and intimate atmosphere, where fans can immerse themselves fully in the music—free from screens and distractions.
