Bob Dylan announces 2025 ‘Rough And Rowdy Ways’ UK and Ireland tour

Bob Dylan has announced a string of UK and Ireland dates for his ongoing ‘Rough And Rowdy Ways’ tour for November.

The tour sprung from the legendary singer-songwriter’s 2020 studio album of the same name and has been running since November 2021. The 10th leg of the tour ran across North America in March and April this year and saw him dipping into his back catalogue, including the first performance of ‘The Times They Are A-Changin’ in 15 years.

Now, it has been confirmed that the latest batch of dates will see Dylan playing across the UK and Ireland later this year. As with other recent shows, the use of video cameras and mobile phones will be prohibited at all shows.

Dylan will kick off at the Brighton Centre on November 7 and will then head to Swansea, Coventry, Leeds, Glasgow, Belfast and Killarney, before finishing up at Dublin’s 3Arena on November 25.

Tickets for the shows go on sale at 10am on Friday 18 July and you will be able to find yours here.

Aside from his ongoing tour, Dylan has a book of drawings, Point Blank (Quick Studies) coming out on November 18, and he also narrated a trailer for Machine Gun Kelly’s upcoming album, ‘Lost Americana’, earlier this year.

Dylan was portrayed by Timothée Chalamet in the biopic A Complete Unknown last year. “Don’t think twice about seeing this brilliant Bob Dylan biopic,” wrote NME in a four-star review, adding: “If you’re a Bob newbie, you’ll leave the cinema ready to dive into his back catalogue. If you’re already a fan, the next few weeks will be spent making playlists of lesser-known B-sides or reading the lore around a scene you weren’t familiar with. And that’s why it was a good idea to make this film – a mad idea, but a good one.”
