Bruce Springsteen tour tickets: how to get a ticket to 2023 UK show dates including Hyde Park and Villa Park

Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band have revealed a number of UK tour dates for their previously announced series of shows that will begin in early 2023, marking the band's first live appearances in six years.

On the tour, which will also cross the United States and Europe, the world-famous rocker said he was looking forward to meeting his “great and loyal fans”.

“After six years, I’m looking forward to seeing our great and loyal fans next year,” Springsteen said. “And I’m looking forward to once again sharing the stage with the legendary E Street Band.”

The 2023 dates will be Springsteen and the E Street Band's first live performances since the end of their 14-month The River Tour in Australia in February 2017.

The group last appeared in front of an audience in December 2020 on Saturday Night Live, where they performed two songs from their most recent studio album, ‘Letter to You.’

Will Bruce Springsteen headline Glastonbury?

The announcement of the European dates has got speculation running rampant as to whether Springsteen could headling the Pyramid Stage at next year’s Glastonbury Festival.

The world famous festival always takes place on the weekend closest to the Summer Solstice, and with 2023’s dates presumably falling on 23, 24 and 25 June, we can start to get an idea of when The Boss might be free to put in a shift.

Currently, Springsteen only has a 24 June date booked in Sweden, under a two-hour flight away from the UK...

Glastonbury boss Michael Eavis has previously said that all three headliners for the 2023 festival have already been confirmed, so could The Boss already be on the books?
