My Bloody Valentine is returning to the stage for their first UK headline tour in over a decade. This announcement is monumental for fans of the band, which has been largely inactive since their last performance in 2018. In November 2025, they will embark on a brief tour across major UK cities, following a sold-out show in Dublin. Scheduled to perform at London’s OVO Wembley Arena, Manchester’s Aviva Studios, and Glasgow’s OVO Hydro, My Bloody Valentine is poised to electrify audiences once more with their signature sound.

This tour is a major event as the band has not performed in the UK for over ten years. According to sources like the NME and Pitchfork, tickets for these UK shows will soon be available, increasing anticipation among fans. The excitement is further fueled by the recent confirmation of the sold-out Dublin performance, which marks the band’s first concert activity in Ireland since 1992. Long-time followers and new fans alike are eager to experience the band’s live renditions during this brief UK tour, which signifies their triumphant return to live performances.

My Bloody Valentine’s return is not only significant due to the decade-long hiatus but also because of their legacy in the music world. Known for their groundbreaking 1991 album Loveless, the band has long been admired for Kevin Shields’ innovative guitar work and their powerful live performances. Despite sparse activity in recent years, there have been rumors of new music. Shields has previously teased upcoming albums, stating that one will be “warm and melodic” while the other will be more experimental. While no official release date has been announced for new material, this tour offers a glimmer of hope for new musical offerings amidst the nostalgia of past hits.

The brief tour marks the band’s first in 10 years and showcases the venues that will host the band this autumn. Their performances will commence with the Dublin concert on November 22, followed by the UK tour starting in Manchester on November 24, moving to London on November 25, and concluding in Glasgow on November 27. The significance of their choice of venues, such as the OVO Wembley Arena in London, underlines their enduring impact on the music scene and the anticipation that surrounds their return to performing in larger venues.

While their past albums, including 2013’s M B V, are still celebrated today, My Bloody Valentine’s live performances are particularly renowned for their intensity and sonic brilliance. The band’s gigs are legendary for their overwhelming soundscapes, where audiences are often provided with earplugs to navigate the sheer volume of their electric wall of sound. For these upcoming shows, longtime fans may anticipate a fusion of classic hits and potentially new tracks that could define a new chapter for the band.
