The spectacular tour, which will culminate at Westlife’s already announced first-ever Wembley Stadium show on 22 August, will see the pop music icons reach more fans than ever before as they belt out hit after hit including ‘Swear It Again’, ‘Flying Without Wings’ and ‘World of our Own’ as well as the hits from their forthcoming new album ‘Spectrum’.
It will be the band’s first UK-wide outdoor tour in over eight years and follows the record-breaking success of this summer’s ‘Twenty Tour’ which saw Shane, Nicky, Mark and Kian perform to over 600,000 fans across 27 cities and 13 countries.
“We’re looking forward to next summer when we’ll be playing so many fantastic outdoor venues across the UK. The Stadiums in the Summer Tour will see us reach more fans than ever before.
