One of the UK’s most familiar and loved rock bands have announced ‘The Last Night of the Electrics’ tour visiting Europe this winter. 

While announcing the dates, the band have confirmed that this will be their last full-on electric shows, including a date at London’s O2 Arena on the 11th December.

Tickets for the UK part of the tour, which also includes dates in Nottingham, Bournemouth, Leeds and Manchester (full list of dates available here), will be available to buy through pre-sale on the bands website on the 23rd March or on sale to the public on the 24th March.

Francis Rossi, Rick Parfitt, Andrew Bown, John ‘Rhino’ Edwards and Leon Cave plan to plug in for one last time for fans across the country, packed with hits both new and old to deliver a show that will thrill audiences.

Status Quo will be joined on tour by special guests REO Speedwagon and The Lounge Kittens.

The band  have sold over 118 million records throughout their illustrious career and have achieved 43 hit albums in the British Albums Chart. Hit songs such as ‘Whatever You Want’ and ‘Rockin’ All Over The World’ still prove as popular today as when they were first released.

This tour will mark the end of a remarkable era as Status Quo turn away from constantly touring their fabled electric live set.

Tickets will be available to buy soon from Ticketmaster.co.uk.
