Arctic Monkeys: from festivals to concerts, where to see the band in 2023 as tour tickets sell out

Arctic Monkeys will take to the stage next year for a world tour and a number of music festivals.

The rock band, founded in Sheffield, announced their newest album after returning to the stage in August following a three-year hiatus from live shows.

Their seventh studio album, The Car, is set for release today (21 October), with singles including There’d Better Be a Mirrorball and Body Paint.

They announced via Instagram on 23 September that they will play 13 shows across the United Kingdom and Ireland next year - including two in their native Sheffield.

The four-piece band have also confirmed that they will be touring Europe and North America in 2023.

Almost all of their gigs in the UK are sold out, with the exception of Swansea. Fans have been left furious as tickets have been spotted for sale online for three times the face value price.

However, those who’ve missed out on tickets may be able to catch a live set from the Arctic Monkeys at a festival or at one of their many perfomances in other locations across the world.

Popular UK festivals such as Reading, Leeds, Parklife, Glastonbury and TRANSMT are yet to announce their line ups.

Let’s take a look at the festivals that Arctic Monkeys have been confirmed for or are rumoured to be performing at in 2023.
