Lionel Richie returns to Europe this autumn with his first European tour dates since 2009, and nearly 25 years since his first solo shows took place.
Support comes from Pixie Lott, Rebecca Ferguson and Philippa Hanna.
Audiences are never disappointed with Richie's exuberant live shows. From the memorable early days of the Commodores, to the sweet serenades of his Eighties piano ballads, to more recent up-tempo pop tracks from the Noughties, he delivers a mix of material spanning over 30 years in the business.
Richie's career has seen him rack up sales of more than 100 million albums, 22 top 10's, five Grammys, an Oscar for Best Original Score, a Golden Globe and a host of other awards from virtually every major entertainment organisation.
He has shaped popular culture, with his music serving as the soundtrack of several generations around the world. His music has remained at the forefront of his fan's milestone moments - first kiss, first wedding dance, first break up, first child. It's impossible to separate those memories and his music because they are inextricably intertwined.
The tour announcement coincides with the release of Tuskegee, his much anticipated new album, on 12 March 2012.
Richie has re-recorded 14 of his international hits, including Endless Love, Easy and Angel, as duets. He is joined by renowned artists such as Shania Twain, Kenny Rogers and Willie Nelson, as well as his pick of today's contemporary scene in Little Big Town and Pixie Lott.
