Following the success of their Mercury Award winning album ‘The Seldom Seen Kid’ and a procession of awards including Best British Band at the BRITS, an NME award and 2 Ivor Novello Awards, Elbow announce their first full UK Arena Tour.
These will be their first live shows since a rapturous send off at the sold out Manchester MEN Arena show in September 2009. The dates include a return to the MEN and a debut performance at London’s O2 Arena.
