European Fall Tour 2025 (nearly) official! First Dates Announced!
The Rough and Rowdy Ways Tour returns to Europe!
What Daily Dylan has been forecasting for weeks is now becoming reality:
Bob Dylan is officially returning to Europe this fall, and the first five shows have just been confirmed!
This morning, Bob’s longtime tour poster designer Geoff Gans posted a new Rough and Rowdy Ways tour poster to his Instagram feed, labeled simply: “Europe 2025.” Shortly after, 5 shows appeared under “Events” on Bob Dylan’s Facebook page:
Swansea (Building Society Arena): November 9, 10 & 11
Coventry (Coventry Building Society Arena): November 13
Leeds (First Direct Arena): November 14
Tickets for all shows go on sale Friday, July 18. Expect them to move fast. The shows were already listed on ticketmaster.co.uk this morning, but later were taken down again.
What’s next?
Rumors about three London shows have circulated for weeks. The Royal Albert Hall still shows availability between November 16 and 20.
There’s also growing hope for a Brighton show: Our friend and fellow Dylan watcher Ian Gallon has posted that a reliable source confirmed Brighton will be part of the tour. We’re keeping close watch.
Before the UK dates, a full Mainland Europe run in October seems likely. Scandinavia, Germany (again??), France, the Netherlands, Austria?
And Munich in particular — it still hasn’t seen a Rough and Rowdy Ways performance.
This would still align well with the pattern of previous years, with an official announcement expected on Monday, July 14 - almost exactly one year after the 2024 Fall Tour was revealed.

Personally I’d prefer a setlist change (60 years Dylan Revisited, e.g.) but who am I to question Bob?
I'm mainly just excited as it's the first UK tour since I became a fan, but I am a bit surprised as my impression was that he doesn't want to keep playing the same songs all the time. He's certainly mixed it up at the Outlaw Music Festival, 28 different songs so far, I think.
