Dua Lipa announces second Wembley Stadium show

Dua Lipa has announced a second Wembley Stadium show in 2025 after “incredible demand” saw her first show sell out in five minutes.

The 28-year-old English-Albanian singer will bring her Radical Optimism Tour to the 90,000-cap stadium in London on 20 and 21 June next year.

The Live Nation-promoted dates – the first of which was announced earlier this month – will mark the star’s first-ever UK stadium headline shows.

“I heard it’s coming home so I thought I would too (AGAIN)!!!!” wrote Lipa on social media of the first night’s sell-out.

“I heard it’s coming home so I thought I would too (AGAIN)!!!!”

“Wow this was the best morning wake-up call!!! YOU GUYS SOLD OUT WEMBLEY STADIUM IN MINUTES!! I love you so much we’re adding another date for ya!!”

News of the first Wembley Stadium date came shortly after she headlined Glastonbury’s Pyramid Stage, closing the Friday night of the festival with a well-received 19-song set.

The WME-represented hitmaker followed that up with festival dates at Poland’s Open’er Festival (4 July), Belgium’s Rock Werchter (6 July) and Mad Cool Festival in Spain (10 July). Tonight (12 July), she’s due to play Nos Alive Festival in Portugal.

She will then play a sold-out show at London’s Royal Albert Hall on 17 October, prior to heading to Asia, where she will visit Singapore, Indonesia, the Philippines, Japan, Taiwan, Malaysia, Thailand and South Korea.

The Radical Optimism Tour is Lipa’s first outing since 2022’s 71-date Future Nostalgia run, which generated $89,302,575 at the box office.
