Kate Bush confirms first shows for 35 years
sean by Sean Adams March 21st, 2014

“I hope you will be able to join us and I look forward to seeing you there,” writes the legendary genius Kate Bush this morning on her website, announcing a run of 15 shows at the Hammersmith Apollo.

Tickets for her first shows since she stepped away from the stage in 1979 following the one tour she's ever done, go on sale from 9.30am on Friday March 28th.

The title for the shows is “Before The Dawn”, which could mean anything at all, and it will take place at London’s Eventim Apollo, Hammersmith for 15 nights starting on August 26th 2014 through to September 19th.

The dates are as follows:

AUGUST 26, 27, 29, 30
SEPTEMBER 2, 3, 5, 6, 9, 10, 12, 13, 16, 17, 19

Tickets are limited to 4 per booking and photo ID will be required to be presented by the lead booker upon arrival at the venue on the night of the show. Ticket prices are: £49 , £59, £75, £95, £135 and are subject to a booking fee. Ticket will be available from eventim.co.uk, gigsandtours.com and ticketmaster.co.uk.
