TOUR TIDBITS: ROBBIE WILLIAMS, JELLY ROLL

British phenom Robbie Williams is heading out on a 28-date U.K. and European tour next year that will visit arenas and stadiums. Robbie Williams Live 2025 begins 5/31 in Edinburgh and crosses the English Channel 6/19 in Copenhagen. Shows are set through 9/20 in Helsinki.

The former Take That member will offer up songs from the soundtrack of his new biopic, Better Man, which is out 12/27, as well as other new music. Let's just hope he will refrain from peeling off his skin like he did in the "Rock DJ" video back in 2000.

Before the tour, Williams will visit the Calabash South Africa Music Festival in Cape Town on 1/22 and SunBet Arena in Time Square, Pretoria, on 1/25-26. The artist hasn't performed in North America since a 2019 Las Vegas residency, which itself followed a 10-year absence from the continent.

JELLY ROLLS TO CANADA: Country’s newest superstar, Jelly Roll (CAA), will embark on his first headlining run across Canada in 2025. The Live Nation-promoted Beautifully Broken Great Northern Tour starts 3/6 at Save-On-Foods Memorial Centre in Victoria, British Columbia, and wraps 3/26 at Videotron Centre in Quebec City, Quebec.

Special guests for all dates include Josh Ross (Feldman), Savannah Dexter and Brabo Gator. Until recently, international touring has been difficult for Jelly Roll because of his past felony convictions.
