Russell will be joined by his band and string section on the tour. 

He said: “I can hardly believe it’s been 25 years since I released The Voice and embarked on this incredible journey.

“Looking back, I’m immensely grateful for every experience—performing for royalty, duetting with legends, and connecting with fans around the world.

“This tour is a chance for me to revisit the music that has meant so much to me and to those who’ve been on this journey with me.

“It’s not just a celebration of the past; it’s a new chapter, and I’m more passionate than ever to bring these songs to life on stage. I can’t wait to share this milestone with everyone in the audience.”

As well as releasing eight top-10 albums and reaching seven billion streams, Russell has had an illustrious career performing for Queen Elizabeth II, King Charles, Pope John Paul II, three US presidents, and royalty from Japan to Malaysia.

He has also sung at the Champions League final, the Commonwealth Games, and in front of 450,000 people at Washington, D.C.’s Capitol building

Tickets for Russell’s tour go on sale on Friday, November 22.
