Iggy Pop announces “landmark” 2025 London and Glasgow shows

Iggy Pop announces “landmark” 2025 London and Glasgow shows

Iggy Pop has announced two “landmark” UK shows in London and Glasgow, set to take place next year. Find all the details below.

Announced today (November 4), the shows will celebrate Iggy’s musical legacy and will see him perform hits from across his five-decade career – from his work with The Stooges to his solo music.

According to a press release, the punk icon will also be joined by “special guests” and a band of “celebrated collaborators”, though no names have currently been announced.

The two UK shows will take place in London and Glasgow. He’ll play the capital’s iconic Alexandra Palace on May 28, before heading to Glasgow on June 3 to play O2 Academy. Tickets go on sale this Friday (November 8) at 9am GMT, and will be available here.

Iggy has been re-visiting his back catalogue recently, singing a collection of Stooges songs for the first time in over a decade earlier this year. During a performance with Yeah Yeah Yeahs‘ Nick Zinner, Matt Sweeney, the punk icon surprised fans with some of the band’s classic hits, from ‘1970’ to ‘I Got A Right’.

In 2022, ahead of the release of his album ‘Every Loser‘, Iggy spoke to NME about his legacy and impact on pop culture. “I suppose if I was another person, I could sit down and graph all that out and come up with some sort of a schematic plan to capitalise a little bit more, but I’m not,” he told us.

“I have noticed life has become a little easier and more rewarding in certain areas than it used to be and seems to continue that way, which really surprises me. Mostly I’m grateful there are people who’ve listened to the music and enjoy it.”

He went on to say: “It really surprises me. I always assumed there would be an arc and things would quiet down after I hit 65. That hasn’t been the case.”

In other news, last week he announced a new live album titled ‘Live At Montreux Jazz Festival 2023’.  The 18-track record captures his career-spanning set at the Montreux Jazz Festival in July last year. It is due for release on Blu-ray, CD, 2LP gatefold vinyl, digital download and streaming on January 24 via earMUSIC. Pre-order/pre-save here.
