Yungblud has announced an extensive world tour in support of his forthcoming fourth album, Idols.
The 27-year-old Doncaster-born musician (real name Dominic Harrison) revealed details of the follow-up to his 2022 self-titled album yesterday, May 6, and now he's shared his tour schedule for 2025.
Following on from his second bespoke Bludfest event, being staged at the National Bowl in Milton Keynes on June 21, the singer's world tour will commence on August 23 in Los Angeles.
Though venues for the tour have yet to be announced, Yungblud will tour North America through to September 21, and then launch the European leg of the trek in Amsterdam on October 4.
On the tour's North American leg, Yungblud will be supported by Arkansas singer-songwriter Sawyer Hill, with Palaye Royale joining for the European dates (excluding Zurich and Vienna).

Set for release on June 20, Idols is described by Yungblud as “a love letter to self-reclamation... to rock music... [and] to life; in all it’s fucking madness.”
“I wanted to make a project that didn’t focus on singles or anything else except feeling and world-building," he adds. "A project with no limitations.”
A press release for the record states that it finds Yungblud exploring "the theme of hero-worship; how we look to others for validation, often putting others’ lives on a pedestal at the expense of the richness of our own experiences."
Harrison says, “We turn to others for an identity before turning to ourselves. Self-belief, self-reclamation, self-evolution and change. As we grow up, we lose our belief in magic and mystery. We begin to rationalise everything; our cage walls build up. We compare ourselves to 15 different people before we’ve even had our breakfast."
Idols can be pre-ordered here.
