My Bloody Valentine announces first tour in 7 years: How to get tickets, dates, venues, and more explored

Shoegaze band My Bloody Valentine has announced a UK tour for the first time in over a decade. They have added three new dates to their previously announced Dublin concert, Rolling Stone reports.

The tour is scheduled to kick off in Dublin on November 22, 2025. Then, it will be heading to Manchester, London, and Glasgow. The announcement reportedly comes after speculation about new music from the band.

Reports suggest that frontman Kevin Shields has previously hinted at upcoming albums. However, no new tracks have been officially released by the band. Nevertheless, this confirmed return of My Bloody Valentine to the stage might excite alternative rock enthusiasts.

My Bloody Valentine took to their official Instagram handle to share the tour extension announcement, captioning:

"More mbv dates announced, to get pre-sales for London/ Manchester/ Glasgow sign up to the newsletter at MyBloodyValentine.org by Monday 31 March. Pre-sales go on sale Monday 31 March. #mbvofficial #ovoarena #ovohydro #avivastudios"

My Bloody Valentine was formed in the early 1980s. The band's 1991 album, Loveless, is arguably one of the most critically acclaimed records in alternative rock. Following a hiatus after the release of Loveless, the band made an official return in 2013 with their third album, m b v.

Since then, their live performances have been rare, reports suggest. Their last official tour took place in 2018 across North America. Rolling Stone reports that the band's last UK tour was in 2013.
