Adele is back following the sensational release of her first music in six years, and the excitement is palpable.
It feels like her new track 'Easy On Me' is everywhere you go.
And now Adele is following up on the national hysteria with more exciting news: live gigs.
The news of two huge new shows—both in the expanses of London's Hyde Park —come after the announcement that a new album, '30', will be released on November 19.
The gigs are set to take place on Friday July 1 and Saturday July 2 2022 during the annual BST festival in what will be her first live performance in five years.
Fans were left fuming after presale tickets sold out and Adele's site crashed, but there are still plenty of tickets out there.

It is understood Adele's return has caused a huge spike in fans returning to her back catalogue on streaming sites.
Her world-famous album 25 has jumped three places in the the Official Charts' to reach Number 3, while 21 has jumped eight places to Number 6 and 19 vaults 39 places to Number 15.
Meanwhile Easy On Me has rocketed into poll position in its first week, receiving more than 217,000 chart sales—the highest total in four years—battering back Ed Sheeran's 2017 anthem, Shape of You.
It is understood it has also broken a new streaming record, clocking up over 24 million listens in its first week. The feat tops Ariana Grande's 7 Rings in 2019 which amassed a mind-boggling 19 million in its debut week.
With numbers like this circulating, it comes as little surprise that tickets to the latest edition of BST will be in significant demand, so it will be crucial that hopeful attendees are sharp with their ticket purchasing approach.
