UB40 have rescheduled their Bigga Baggariddim Tour.
Due to rising concerns over the coronavirus pandemic, the reggae legends have pushed back their dates to May and June, while also moving their Nottingham show to Rock City. Original tickets will be honoured, and the remainder are on sale now. The band confirmed the news with a statement:
"It is with great regret that we are announcing the postponement of our UK / Irish tour dates for 2021 which unfortunately will now be pushed into 2022. Our promoters have made this decision due to concerns over rising Covid cases across the country and the safety of our fans, crew and band members.
"We are extremely frustrated at another delay but we hope you understand and we look forward to seeing you all next May. We can’t wait to be back on tour and having a long overdue party with all of you. We thank you for your incredible patience and continued support throughout these challenging and unprecedented times.
"Please find the new dates below. London, Leeds, Castlebar, Kerry and Belfast ticket holders, please hang on to those tickets, we haven’t forgotten you, new dates coming shortly."
The rearranged run will follow Australian gigs earlier that year. They're hitting the road in support of their latest album, 2019's 'For the Many'.
In June, UB40 frontman Duncan Campbell announced his retirement from music due to ill health and was replaced by Matt Doyle as lead singer. In August, the group's saxophonist and songwriter Brian Travers died aged 62. Earlier in November, former UB40 member Astro died aged 64.
