Sophie Ellis-Bextor Liverpool Philharmonic Christmas show

Sophie Ellis-Bextor has confirmed a Liverpool Philharmonic Hall show as part of her Christmas Kitchen Disco Tour, which returns to the UK in November and December 2027 with 17 dates.

Tour dates and venues

The tour begins at Glasgow Armadillo on November 21 and travels across the UK, with stops in Edinburgh, Bradford, Brighton, Bournemouth, Ipswich, Sheffield, Gateshead, Liverpool, Birmingham, Manchester, York, Bristol, Swansea, Portsmouth and Nottingham. It ends with a headline show at London's Royal Albert Hall on December 15.

Fans can expect a mix of festive disco favourites and Sophie's biggest hits. She will also release a new album, Christmas Disco, in 2027.

Singer's announcement

Sophie said: "I absolutely love Christmas, so I'm really happy to announce that the band and I will be heading out on a UK Christmas tour in 2027.

"We'll be bringing plenty of festive cheer to venues across the country. I'm also releasing my Christmas Disco album, which I'm very excited about. As someone who wears tinsel all year round, it feels like the perfect combination!"

Career highlights

Sophie's previous Christmas Kitchen Disco tour in 2023 sold out across the UK, with The Guardian describing it as "an enjoyably merry spectacle" and The i calling it "the most festive of shows".

With a career spanning more than 25 years, Sophie has scored six Top 10 albums and eight Top 10 singles. Her best-known hits include Murder on the Dancefloor, Groovejet (If This Ain't Love), Take Me Home and Get Over You.

Murder on the Dancefloor enjoyed a huge resurgence after featuring in the film Saltburn, introducing the track to a new generation of listeners and taking it back to No.2 in the UK charts.

Sophie recently released her eighth studio album, Perimenopop, which became her highest-charting album in more than a decade. This was followed by her biggest UK headline tour to date, including a major show at London's Royal Albert Hall.

She also presents Sophie Ellis-Bextor's Kitchen Disco on BBC Radio 2 and hosts her podcast Spinning Plates.
