New Order announce 2023 UK tour including London The O2: how to get tickets, pre-sale details

New Order have announced a UK and European tour, including a show in London later this year, following a successful run of shows in North America in March. The British rock band, whose hits include ‘Blue Monday’ will kick off their tour on September 21 in Copenhagen before coming back to the UK to perform at The O2 in London on September 29.

The band’s performance at The O2 in London will be their first in the capital since a sold-out show in 2021 that was live streamed around the world, as well as their first visit to Dublin since 2019 and a sold-out show at Trinity College, which was their first headline show in the country in 26 years.

On October 1, the band will perform at 3Arena in Dublin for the first time, and then at OVO Hydro in Glasgow also for the first time in eight years on October 5. Support for shows in the UK and Ireland comes from special guests Confidence Man - an Australian band whose critically acclaimed album Tilt, reached No. 7 in the Official UK Charts.

Formed in 1980 by vocalist and guitarist Bernard Sumner, bassist Peter Hook and drummer Stephen Morris, the members regrouped after the disbandment of their previous band Joy Division due to the death by suicide of lead singer Ian Curtis. They were joined by Gillian Gilbert on keyboards later that year.

New Order’s integration of post-punk with electronic and dance music made them one of the most acclaimed and influential bands of the 1980s.  In 2015, they released their 10th studio album, Music Complete. In 2023, both Joy Division and New Order were nominated as one act for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.

When are New Order coming to London?

New Order are performing at The O2, London on Saturday, September 29.
