About this event
One of Britain’s most-beloved soul pop voices, the multi-award winning artist Will Young, has announced “The Evergreen 25th Anniversary Tour” – a celebratory 16-date tour across the UK with his full band, performing all the hits across his two-decade-plus journey in music. The tour kicks off in February 2027, coinciding with 25 years since Will’s landmark Pop Idol win.
Will Young said, "To reach 25 years is a privilege and an honour. Who knew entering a competition by cutting out a piece from the newspaper would lead to the most exciting 20 weeks of my life in Pop Idol and a relationship with the public that has lasted for so long. People voted and trusted me and that has forever been a dream come true. I can’t wait to celebrate with the full band and get to play ‘Evergreen’ as well as all the songs that have come since from ‘Light My Fire' to ‘You and I’ to ‘Leave Right Now' to ‘Jealousy' and onwards. Can’t wait to see everyone who trusted in me during Pop Idol and since, at the anniversary shows.”
Since catapulting virtually-overnight to international fame from winning the inaugural Pop Idol in 2002, Will Young has carved a flourishing career in music and stage, earning two BRIT Awards, an Olivier Award nomination, four No.1 and eleven UK Top 10 albums, and eleven Top 10 singles.
