Van Morrison has added two Scotland shows to his forthcoming 2025 UK tour. Find all the details below.
The legendary singer-songwriter is due to hit the road for “a rare run of UK live performances” next month, as announced last week. He initially confirmed four gigs in Nottingham, Birmingham, Oxford and Stroud.
Now, Morrison has scheduled a pair of headline concerts in Scotland at the end of the trek. He’ll take to the stage at Glasgow’s Royal Concert Hall on March 30, before heading to Edinburgh for a performance at Usher Hall the following night (March 31).
Tickets for the new dates go on general sale at 9am GMT this Friday (February 14) – you’ll be able to buy yours here. Alternatively, you can find pre-sale information via Ticketmaster. The Glasgow and Edinburgh tickets are priced at £80, £65 and £50.
Morrison had previously announced two homecoming shows at Whitla Hall in Belfast on February 21 and 22, as well as European headline gigs in Antwerp, Brussels and The Hague.
Van Morrison’s 2025 UK and Ireland tour dates are:
FEBRUARY
21 – Whitla Hall, Belfast
22 – Whitla Hall, Belfast
MARCH
18 – Royal Concert Hall, Nottingham
19 – Symphony Hall, Birmingham

The upcoming stint is billed as a “unique opportunity to experience Van Morrison live” in intimate, “specially selected venues”.
The musician is touring to promote his 2024 album ‘New Arrangements And Duets’, comprised of unreleased material the Rock & Roll Hall Of Fame inductee had in his catalogue. The record features collaborations with the likes of Willie Nelson, Joss Stone, Curtis Stigers and Kurt Elling.
Upon announcing the collection, Morrison said: “This album represents a small percentage of the huge amount of unreleased material we are hoping to roll out in the near future, rather than letting it gather dust in some archive.”
Morrison last performed live in the UK in September 2024, and played a show at London’s historic Royal Albert Hall last summer.
