Westlife have announced a concert in the Aviva Stadium as part of their upcoming world tour in 2022.
The Irish music icons will finally return to the stage on Friday, July 8, 2022, as the music industry gets back on track post-Covid.
They’ll be performing their greatest hits like ‘Swear it Again,’ ‘Flying Without Wings,’ and ‘World of our own’ for the first time since their reunion tour at Croke Park three years ago.
Alongside the classics, they’ll also be belting out their fresh pop anthems from their new album ‘Wild Dreams’.
Speaking at a news conference in the Aviva Stadium this morning, Nicky Byrne said; “This is a momentous occasion for all of us, not necessarily the show, but even this morning, being able to announce the show.
“Considering where we have all been and what we’ve all been up to for the past couple of years.
“It just feels so positive that we’re moving forward and we’re getting to a place, particularly for the Irish music scene where shows can come back.
“This is a big show, it’s outdoors with 40 or 50 thousand people, but even if it was smaller the fact that we’re getting back on stage, we’re getting back into rehearsals, that normality is resuming is just brilliant.”
News of the 2022 tour marks the beginning of a packed schedule for Westlife who have just released their new single ‘Starlight’ - the first track of the highly anticipated new album ‘Wild Dreams’ which is available for pre-order now.
Tickets for Westlife go on-sale to the general public on Friday, November 5, at 8 am from Ticketmaster.
Fans can also pre-order Westlife’s forthcoming album ‘Wild Dreams’, out on 26th November, from www.westlife.com.
