Holly Johnson announces Welcome To The Pleasuredome UK Tour

Holly Johnson has announced his Welcome To The Pleasuredome UK Tour celebrating four decades of the groundbreaking debut album by Frankie Goes to Hollywood.

The six date tour for June 2025 includes shows at London’s Royal Albert Hall and a major homecoming at Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena.

Following his critically acclaimed 2023 shows, Holly Johnson returns to the stage with a brand-new production featuring the timeless hits that made Frankie Goes to Hollywood one of the most influential bands of the 80s. Fans can expect to hear iconic anthems like the chart-topping Relax, Two Tribes, and the ethereal The Power of Love.

Following Frankie Goes To Hollywood’s split in 1987, Johnson made his first solo debut, the UK No.1 Blast, in 1989, and scored chart success with the singles Love Train, Americanos and Atomic City.  In 2023 Frankie reunited to open the Eurovision Song Contest.
