Legendary Pink Floyd guitarist David Gilmour has unveiled plans for a major 2025 world tour, following the release of his critically acclaimed solo album Luck and Strange in September 2024. This marks his first extensive global tour in nearly a decade.
Tour Highlights
The tour will feature performances at some of the world’s most iconic venues, including:
Royal Albert Hall, London
Madison Square Garden, New York City
Hollywood Bowl, Los Angeles
Tokyo Dome, Japan
Gilmour’s setlist is expected to blend selections from his solo repertoire—such as On an Island and Rattle That Lock—with timeless Pink Floyd classics like “Comfortably Numb,” “Wish You Were Here,” and “Shine On You Crazy Diamond.”
Tour Dates and Ticket Information
While specific dates for the 2025 tour have yet to be announced, fans can anticipate a spring launch. Ticket sales are scheduled to commence on November 10, 2024, with a presale for registered fans beginning on November 8. Early registration is encouraged to secure tickets, as demand is expected to be high.
VIP packages will also be available, offering premium seating, exclusive merchandise, and meet-and-greet opportunities with Gilmour.
About ‘Luck and Strange’
Luck and Strange is Gilmour’s fifth solo studio album and his first in nine years. The album features lyrics primarily written by his wife, Polly Samson, and contributions from their children, including vocals and instrumentation. Themes of aging and mortality are prevalent throughout the album, which has been praised as some of Gilmour’s best work since Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon.
Looking Ahead
As Gilmour prepares for the 2025 tour, he has expressed enthusiasm about performing alongside a talented band and sharing new material with fans worldwide. Plans for a follow-up album are already underway, with Gilmour and Samson eager to continue their creative collaboration.
