The Foo Fighters have announced they will be embarking on a massive UK stadium tour in 2022, and we cannot wait.
Consisting of Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Taylor Hawkins, Chris Shiflett and Rami Jaffee, the band will perform in the country next summer as part of their Return To The UK tour, which includes two dates at the London stadium.
The gigs are in support of the Foo Fighters’ 10th studio album Medicine At Midnight, which was released in February.
Tickets are set to go on sale very soon, with a presale option available, while prices will be announced in due course.
At the moment, the group are currently touring their native US, and have performed at the likes of Madison Square Garden in New York City, where they played the venue’s first full-capacity show in a year, and the Lollapalooza festival in Chicago.

Speaking to NME, frontman Dave explained: ‘The last few weeks, we’ve been playing these places that hold maybe 15,000-20,000 people, and a gig that big can still seem intimate.
‘That’s what we try to bring to those bigger stadiums, to see if we can create a sense of intimacy in a stadium that large.’
Here is everything you need to know about these impending UK concerts and how to get tickets.
