The 33-year-old singer is set to star in a one-off ITV primetime concert following the launch of her eagerly-awaited new album, 30.
It’s already been reported that the glitzy event will see Adele put on a tearful performance as she took to the stage in her hometown of London for the first time in four years.
Here’s everything you need to know ahead of the show airing.

The filmed concert is due for release after the singer’s new album, 30, is launched on November 19.
An Audience With Adele is then due to broadcast on Sunday, November 21, before the return of I’m A Celebrity… Get Me Out Of Here!. It will be available to watch live on primetime as well as on the ITV Hub.
What do we know about Adele’s ITV special?
Adele’s ITV special is recorded content from her star-studded concert held at the legendary London Palladium.
The gig took place on Saturday, November 5, in front of an A-list crowd which included the likes of dris Elba, Dua Lipa, Samuel L Jackson, Emma Watson, Alan Carr and Stormzy.
This Morning’s Phillip Schofield was also a guest in attendance and said the singer was ‘very emotional when she came out’.

Also, expect some tears as reports have claimed there ‘wasn’t a dry eye in the house’.
The one-off special will include Adele’s performance of her new number one single Easy On Me.
It will also feature many of her classic hits in front of a specially invited audience of friends, family, fans, her own personal heroes and heroines, fellow musicians, artists, actors, sportsmen, sportswomen and more.
Is it the same as Adele: One Night Only?
Adele’s ITV special and Adele: One Night Only are two different programmes although they will be fairly similar in content.
Adele: One Night Only is a hybrid concert performance and will feature an interview with Oprah Winfrey.
The two-hour special will offer fans of the 33-year-old the earliest opportunity to hear new material from Adele since 2015’s album 25, airing on November 14 on CBS.

The Oprah interview is described as Adele’s ‘first televised wide-ranging conversation about her new album, the stories behind the songs, life after divorce, weight loss and raising her son’.
It’s also to take place in the presenter’s rose garden – the very same location as Oprah’s bombshell interview with Prince Harry and Meghan Markle back in March.
More: Adele
Adele: One Night Only has not yet been given a UK release, however, given that ITV aired Harry and Meghan’s Oprah chat, it’s likely the broadcaster will do the same for Adele.
An Audience With Adele will air on Sunday 21 November on ITV.
