Erasure have announced a major arena tour for next year. The band, made up of Andy Bell and Vince Clarke, are set to begin the tour at Cardiff’s Utilita Arena before travelling across the UK and into Europe, with a stop at Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena.
The tour will include a show at London’s O2 Arena, followed by dates in Germany, Denmark and Sweden. The announcement comes as the duo release their 20th studio album, Radio!! Radio!!, and new single "Wings Of Love".
Line-up change for 2027 shows
There is one significant change to Erasure’s live line-up for the 2027 shows. Vince will take on the role of musical director but will not perform on stage, with Andy fronting the live shows.
Vince, who recently moved from New York to California, says the demands of travelling between the US and UK led him to rethink his role on the road. He said: "I told Andy, and he made me musical director, and I thought, ‘How fantastic is that?’ I can do all my work and all my direction from here, but I don’t have to leave sunny San Diego."
Keeping the tour going
Andy said the arrangement allows the tour to go ahead while keeping Clarke closely involved. He added: "I’m so pleased that we were able to find a way for the tour to work for Vince. He’s always too modest but he’s so much more than the musical director. Vince is one of the great loves of my life and everything we do as Erasure we decide together."
UK and Ireland dates
The UK and Ireland leg begins on April 25 at Cardiff’s Utilita Arena, with the Liverpool show at M&S Bank Arena on April 28. Further dates include Bournemouth, Birmingham, Manchester, Dublin, Nottingham, Hull, Leeds, Glasgow, Brighton and London.
European dates follow in May across Germany, Denmark and Sweden, with special guests Ladytron. General sale tickets go on sale at 10am on Friday, October 2, 2026.
