An intimate evening of stories and song promised as extra dates are added to Will Young tour
Due to overwhelming demand, Will Young is adding more shows to his Light It Up Live 2024 Tour in Falmouth, Gateshead, Manchester, Bristol, Cardiff and a third London date.
To celebrate his forthcoming new album Light It Up, Will is embarking on his most intimate tour yet – taking shape as an up close and personal evening of acoustic performances of all his hits and new songs, stories and conversation.
The 50-plus-date UK tour will kick off in September through to December. About the tour, Young said: “I’m very excited to be going to a lot of places I haven’t been. I wanted to go to smaller venues so I could properly get around the country rather than just playing the big cities.”
