Gary Numan Announces 2022 European Tour Dates

The synth-pop icon will hit the road next April in support of his new album ‘Intruder’, which is released this Friday (May 21). Tickets go on sale next Friday (May 28) at 9:30am BST

Kicking off in Cardiff on April 28, Numan’s ‘Intruder Tour’ will also make stop-offs in Bristol, Brighton, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Leeds, Manchester, Sheffield and other cities throughout May. A performance at London’s Wembley arena will take place on May 7, 2022.

With his new album, Intruder, on the horizon (out May 21), Gary Numan is revealing his latest tour dates for 2022 in support of the upcoming music.

The 18-date trek kicks off on April 8, 2022 in Cardiff, U.K., hitting Norway, Sweden, Ireland, Denmark, France, Spain and Germany, before wrapping on June 13, 2022 in Belgium, Brussels.

“To say I’ve missed touring would be a colossal understatement. It’s the life I chose when I was a teenager so not being able to tour the world has been very difficult,” Numan shares in a statement. “But now things are changing once again and the next UK tour has been announced and I am as excited as I was when all this started for me a lifetime ago. More so in fact. I can’t wait to walk out onto a stage again, to hear the roar of the crowd, the ear shattering volume of the music, to be bathed in light and soak up that emotion. It’s what I’m here for.”

In addition, Numan recently announced the global streaming live event Intruder: The Worldwide Concert Premiere, hosted by the live performance platform Stabal, on June 17. The show will see Numan and his band perform several songs from Intruder for the first time as well as a selection of songs throughout his career.

Opening with eighteen dates in the UK and Ireland, the tour includes Gary Numan's first show at The SSE Arena, Wembley since he played three sold-out farewell concerts at the venue back in 1981. His return to the venue also represents the joint largest headline show that he has ever played in the UK - a phenomenal and unusual achievement for an artist whose career spans over 40 years.
