Pop superstar Lorde has confirmed details of her first world tour in four years, including a huge show in Manchester.
The Grammy award-winning artist has also released new music, with her new single Solar Power landing on the same day as the year's only solar eclipse.
The New Zealand-born singer-songwriter will be performing more than 40 dates across the globe in 2022.
The Solar Power tour will begin in her home country in February 2022 before reaching Manchester's O2 Victoria Warehouse on May 28.
Lorde first burst onto the scene at just 16 years of age with her smash-hit single Royals, and debut album Pure Heroine.
Her second album, Melodrama, also reached the top 10 of the UK albums chart, but she hasn't released new music since 2017.
Solar Power, her surprise single, has debuted to critical acclaim and massive commercial success, raking in more than 30 million streams in its first five days.
It's the first single from Lorde's forthcoming studio album, produced by Jack Antonoff.
Of the album, Lorde says: "The album is a celebration of the natural world, an attempt at immortalizing the deep, transcendent feelings I have when I’m outdoors.
"In times of heartache, grief, deep love, or confusion, I look to the natural world for answers. I’ve learned to breathe out, and tune in. This is what came through.
"The first song, also called SOLAR POWER and written and produced by myself and Jack, is the first of the rays. It’s about that infectious, flirtatious summer energy that takes hold of us all, come June."
Tickets for Lorde's Solar Power World Tour will go on sale at 10am on Friday June 25 from See Tickets.
