Drake UK tour 2025: dates, ticket prices, seating maps and everything you need to know
It's been a mixed year for Drake, but for fans of the Canadian rapper, this news will definitely be a welcome surprise.
Drake has announced a huge European tour for this summer, marking his return to the UK after a six year absence. The last time he played on British soil was for his Assassination Vacation tour back in 2019, but there's been a lot of music since then, so these dates are not to be missed.
One of these recent releases, the collaborative album with PARTYNEXTDOOR, $ome $exy $ongs 4 U, inspired this tour. The band will be supporting Drake across Europe, and they will be featured during the concert.
After headlining all three days at London's Wireless festival, the 'God's Plan' singer will be playing six nights in the UK, followed by nearly two months worth of gigs across the continent of Europe. Presale has already passed but don't fear, there's still time for you to bag your tickets.
Here's everything you need to know about Drake's upcoming UK and Europe tour.
When is Drake going on tour in the UK?
Usually there's quite a few months between a tour being announced and the artist actually hitting the stage. Not Drake, though. He broke the news only a few days ago, and the concerts are all scheduled for this summer – he'll be in the UK for four nights at the end of July. These will follow his three-night headlining slot at Wireless Festival earlier in the month.
What UK dates are confirmed?

Is there a presale?

My son was invited to a pal's party but his mum then lied & said it was cancelled – now people are saying it's MY fault
Sarah's son was left "really upset" by the party mix up PARTY POOPER My son was invited to a pal's party but his mum then lied & said it was cancelled – now people are saying it's MY fault Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) A MUM was left fuming when she was told that a party her son had been invited to was cancelled - only to find that it wasn't. Sarah explained that her son was invited to a friend's birthday, so she texted the parents and accepted on his behalf. Sign up for Scottish Sun newsletter Sign up 2 Mum Sarah was left fuming when she discovered a party she'd been told had been cancelled went ahead - without her son Credit: TikTok/@momof_4our_ 2 Her son was left "really upset" that he wasn't able to attend the party, and Sarah slammed the mother for her "disgusting behaviour" Credit: Alamy However, because she's "crap at texting people", she only got round to RSVP-ing a "couple of weeks later". And when she finally messaged, the mum of the birthday boy responded to say that the party had actually been cancelled. She then found out that the celebration had gone ahead, after her son received a whole load of text messages from his friends asking why he wasn't there. "Why invite my child to a party if you're gonna pretend it's not on anymore?" Sarah raged. She concluded by saying that her son had been left "really upset" by the situation, which she labelled "disgusting behaviour". "Honestly cannot believe I've even had to make this video," she wrote in the caption of a clip explaining the situation on TikTok. And while there were those who agreed with Sarah's anger, the majority of people hit back insisting she was in the wrong because of her late RSVP. "To be honest this is on you," one wrote. "It's infuriating that parents do not respond for weeks. "I had someone turn up at my sons party the RSVPed no which was absolutely fine. I said yes to my three-year-old going to a friend's party then the 'gift requirements' were sent out & I was floored "I had enough also had three people turn up that never even bothered to answer the invitation, which is quite rude. "Parties cost a lot of money it takes two seconds to reply. Yes you're coming or no I can't come." "Should have replied earlier," another agreed. "It's so annoying when parents don't text back for numbers and parents have to pay according to numbers - they probably meant your invite was cancelled because you didn't reply." "There's nothing more frustrating than not getting responses back from invites," a third sighed. "As a parent who spent between £500-£1000 per party for my children when they were younger, it was a total bugbear of mine when parents didn't reply timely. Average kid's birthday cost for parents According to a new study from the UK's leading money-saving brand, Voucher Cloud, over two thirds of British parents throw their children a birthday party every single year - and the costs can be high. Average spend on party - £320.50 Average spend on presents - £175.80 "Granted, she should have been honest and just said the numbers had been confirmed and it was too late. "However it's just courtesy from your side to reply sooner rather than later." "You replied weeks late," someone else pointed out. "Maybe they felt bad saying they can no longer come so just said it's cancelled?" "This is completely on you," another agreed. "She should have been honest with you but him being excluded is your fault." There were also those that agreed with Sarah that the mum had behaved terribly in saying the party had been cancelled. "That's absolutely horrible!!! I'm so sorry!" one wrote. "I would have confronted the mother, that;s not okay - poor children," another said. As a third admitted: "I would have had to text the mum and ask why she lied, I wouldn't be able to help myself!" To which Sarah replied: "I did... she didn't respond!" "There is right and wrong on both sides," someone else said, diplomatically. "You should have replied sooner and she should have been honest."

BBC star banned from camping at Glastonbury after 'trashing' campervan
The 59-year-old radio DJ says she is forbidden from camping at Glastonbury after an incident a few years back. BBC radio DJ Jo Whiley is no longer allowed to hire a campervan during Glastonbury after one got "trashed" in a previous year at the festival. The 59-year-old broadcaster spilled the details about when she stayed in a Winnebago motorhome on-site. Jo, who hosts coverage of the event for the BBC, says she had ended up recording interviews from the hired campervan. She shared that stars such as Arctic Monkeys, Lily Allen, The Klaxons, and Amy Winehouse attempted to stay dry in the van when the British weather took over the festival. The aftermath saw the Winnebago in a state of disarray, leading to Jo being prohibited from hiring a motor home for future festivals, she told The Times. Nowadays, she opts for a hotel stay close to the festival grounds, alongside fellow BBC personalities. But her lush Glasto hotel days are a stark contrast to her teenage years when she experienced her tent sliding towards the Pyramid Stage due to heavy rain. Reflecting on those early days, she shared: "I remember our tent, which was right in front of the Pyramid Stage, sliding down a hill towards the stage. We left at five o'clock the following morning, after cooking bacon sandwiches on the platform of the train station. "Accommodation has improved since then. We did the Winnebago thing and it got trashed and then we weren't allowed to have another one. "We did shows from there, so we had the Arctic Monkeys, Lily Allen, Klaxons, Mika and Amy Winehouse - they kept coming into the Winnebago to do interviews because it was the only dry place. "I remember interviewing Amy Winehouse and Blake [Fielder-Civil] from basically my bedroom, with my kids there, too. I can't remember exactly who was responsible for the trashing, but I'm sure the Klaxons played a fairly large part." Jo now reveals she has maintained the same quarters at the hotel for the last decade and expresses how it "feels like home" whenever she makes her way to Glastonbury, reported Bristol Live. Those at this year's festival are being spared from replicating Jo's waterlogged Glasto experience, as scorching temperatures have been recorded. Despite some drops in temperature leading to showers recently, Worthy Farm basked in highs of 27C on Saturday, nudging towards the sweltering 32.2C peak from 2017. This edition of the festival has already featured an array of world-famous performers, including Charli XCX, The 1975 and Neil Young. Olivia Rodrigo will headline the Pyramid Stage tonight, June 29, after Rod Stewart takes the legendary teat-time slot. Viewers can catch live broadcast festivities from Worthy Farm through the BBC, with Jo hosting alongside Clara Amfo, Lauren Laverne, Jack Saunders, Huw Stephens, and Jamz Supernova. As presenter, Jo has grown quite fond of Glastonbury Festival, to the extent that she hosted her very own "GlastonWhiley" during its hiatus year. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!
