Stereophonics are hitting the road again and Midlands fans are in for a double dose of the action. The legendary Welsh band have announced a massive UK arena tour for December 2025, with two major stops in the region: Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena on Wednesday 4 December and Birmingham’s Utilita Arena on Saturday 13 December.
The news follows a triumphant run of summer shows that saw the band play to over 500,000 fans across the UK and Europe, including a sold-out blowout at London’s Finsbury Park and a show-stealing headline slot at Isle of Wight Festival, where Rolling Stone UK hailed their performance as “the highlight of the night”.
Midlands fans are no strangers to the power of a Stereophonics live set and with the band fresh off releasing their ninth No.1 album, ‘Make ‘em Laugh, Make ‘em Cry, Make ‘em Wait’, these arena dates promise to be some of their most emotionally charged and sonically massive shows to date. With Kelly Jones’ unmistakable vocals front and centre, and a back catalogue spanning three decades, this is set to be an essential night out for rock fans in the region.
Tickets go on general sale Friday 11 July at 09:30am, and with both Nottingham and Birmingham venues historically quick to sell out for the ‘Phonics, demand is expected to be sky-high.
With their latest record topping the charts and their live shows reaching new heights in scale and energy, Stereophonics continue to prove why they’re one of Britain’s most enduring bands. From early pub gigs to stadiums and arenas, they’ve never lost their knack for connecting with fans and this December, the Midlands will get to witness that magic first-hand.
