Elton said of the shows: “The Farewell Yellow Brick Road tour will take us to many places that have meant a lot to me over the last fifty years, but these UK shows will be incredibly special.

"The UK is home, and where my heart will always be. To celebrate some of the incredible moments we’ve shared with my British fans over the years will be wonderful. These homecoming shows will be very emotional, and a lot of fun.”

Elton launched his farewell tour in the US in September, and has already been met with acclaim from audiences and critics alike. The three-year tour will feature over 300 shows across five continents, before finally ending in 2021.
