The news of the tour follows a successful run of gigs last year that included three nights at the Royal Albert Hall.

The 84-year-old will perform in a few UK cities including Glasgow, Swansea, Brighton and more.

The shows fill form part of his Rough And Rowdy Ways world tour which has been running since November 2021.

Why Bob Dylan’s UK and Ireland shows will be phone-free

The shows will be phone-free and fans will be asked to put their phones in a Yondr pouch which closes automatically when in the venue and unlocks in the venue’s concourse.

It comes amid a surge in interest in the singer’s career, following the release of the biopic A Complete Unknown last year which starred Timothee Chalamet as Dylan and followed the story of his career beginnings and infamous decision to go electric in the mid-1960s.

His career began in 1962 with the single Mixed-Up Confusion which failed to chart in the UK and US but he shot to stardom with a string of successful singles a few years later in 1965, including The Times They Are A-Changin’, Subterranean Homesick Blues and Like A Rolling Stone.

He was the first songwriter to receive the Nobel Prize for Literature in 2016 with the Swedish academy crediting him with “having created new poetic expressions within the great American song tradition”.

Dylan’s songs have been covered by the likes of The Jimi Hendrix Experience, The Rolling Stones and Adele.
