Lewis Capaldi announces headline show at SSE Arena Belfast for 2023

Singer-songwriter Lewis Capaldi has announced he is coming back to Belfast as part of his 2023 tour.

The Scottish star will play the SSE Arena on January 29, 2023, with tickets going on sale on Friday, October 28 at 9am from Ticketmaster.

After making his eagerly-awaited return last month and rocketing straight to the top of the UK singles chart with "Forget Me" Lewis Capaldi has also announced his brand new album 'Broken By Desire To Be Heavenly Sent'.

It is the follow-up to his debut, Divinely Uninspired To A Hellish Extent, which was the biggest-selling UK album of both 2019 & 2020.

For album two, the idea is simple but potent: to go in and do the exact same thing. No bells, whistles or starry featured vocalists, and no ruinously expensive stays in distant studios. Like it was on the first album, straight-up, full-force honesty.

Lewis said: "I don't want to create a new sound for myself, or reinvent myself. The songs I want to write are emotional songs, about love or loss."

His debut album was a major success, selling over 10 million copies worldwide. He is returning to Belfast after his sold-out performance at Ormeau Park in June for Belsonic 2022.

Lewis is set to rock the SSE as he takes to the road next year for a full arena headline tour across the UK & Europe.

“I'm ready,” he concludes, champing at the bit to get back out there, “and so are the songs.”
