The band are celebrating their 25th anniversary

Westlife have announced details of a headline UK tour for 2026 - and this is how to get tickets.

They'll kick off the UK run in Aberdeen on 29 September, and head to the likes of Glasgow, Newcastle, Leeds, Sheffield, London, Brighton, Bournemouth, Birmingham, Cardiff, and Manchester.

Plus, Shane, Nicky, and Kian will also perform their previously announced five nights at Belfast's SSE Arena between 27-31 October.

The news comes after they announced a huge residency at Dublin's 3Arena for next September.

The group will perform 10 shows at the Irish venue, with more dates added due to demand for tickets.

Fans can expect to hear their greatest hits including “World of Our Own”, “Flying Without Wings”, “You Raise Me Up” and “Swear It Again” to name a few.
