Peter Gabriel just announced plans for a 2023 tour across the UK and Europe, kicking off in Krakow, Poland next spring, May 18.

The tour, dubbed “i/o The Tour,” marks his first solo shows outside of North America since 2014’s “Back to Front Tour” celebrating the era-defining album So.

Produced by Live Nation, the 22 shows in Europe include dates in Italy, France, Germany, Denmark, Sweden, Norway, The Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland, and the UK before wrapping in Dublin, Ireland on June 25, 2023. Full dates below.

The tour will continue in North America in the late summer/fall with dates and ticket information to follow.

“i/o The Tour” will see Gabriel playing new material from his forthcoming album i/o, as well as delving into his peerless catalogue of music, “with hits, fan favourites and the unexpected,” according to the press release form Live Nation.

For the shows, Gabriel will be joined by regular band-mates Tony Levin, David Rhodes and Manu Katché. Details on the i/o album will follow. Peter Gabriel commented, “It’s been a while and I am now surrounded by a whole lot of new songs and am excited to be taking them out on the road for a spin. Look forward to seeing you out there.”
