Due to ongoing demand, the London artist has added even more dates to her summer tour.
She'll now play a third hometown show at The O2 on July 7 and a second night at Manchester's AO Arena on June 20. Earlier this week, she added a second London show at The O2 on June 28 and Dublin's 3Arena on July 1.
The tour also includes stops at Newcastle's Utilita Arena, Glasgow's OVO Hydro, Leeds' First Direct Bank Arena, Nottingham's Motorpoint Arena, Cardiff's Utilita Arena and Birmingham's BP Pulse Live throughout June. All dates are on sale now - Compare and buy tickets here.
Allen's summer run will be the biggest headline tour of her career, following the near-instant sell-out of her previously announced spring theatre performances.
Billed as Lily Allen Performs West End Girl, the spring and summer concerts will see her perform her new album in full, something she'll also do during her headline set at Mighty Hoopla at London’s Brockwell Park in May.
