Bradford's very own Zayn, formerly of One Direction fame, has just added more dates to his first ever solo UK tour.
The Yorkshire-born star recently announced his Stairway to the Sky tour, which included a night at the O2 Academy here in Leeds.
And now, due to phenomenal demand, the multi-platinum-selling singer, songwriter and producer has whacked a load more dates onto his run of shows.
Zayn has added an extra Leeds show, as well as two more gigs in Manchester and an extra one in London too.
He'll now play 11 headline gigs at venues across the UK this November and December, as well as shows in the US.
The Stairway to The Sky tour was announced with a surprise walk-on skit on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.
This is the first time Zayn has ever gone on a solo tour, despite this being in support of his fourth studio album, Room Under The Stairs.
He said: "Appreciate your patience, love, and support. Can’t wait to enjoy great music together. This time I really mean soon. See you in 35 days…."
Zayn has chosen intimate venues for the tour in celebration of the album's 'raw and stripped' sound.
Zayn will perform at the O2 Academy in Leeds on 23 November and the newly-added date of 2 December 2024.
General sale begins on Saturday 21 September at 11am - you can get tickets for Zayn in Leeds with See Tickets here.

A Pulp pop-up pub is coming to Sheffield, taking over a beloved local boozer
Daisy Jackson
A Pulp pop-up pub is heading to Sheffield later this month, following unbelievable success over in Manchester.
The Sheffield icons will be taking charge of beloved local boozer and grassroots gig venue The Hallamshire Hotel.
The news was announced this afternoon by Rough Trade Records, along with Pulp themselves.
While they're keeping the exact details under wraps for now, we've got a pretty good idea of what we might be able to expect, based on their pop-up pub in Manchester in August.
There, there was a jukebox programmed by Jarvis Cocker himself, along with merch literally plastered on every wall and even the ceilings.
The previous Pulp pop-up pub had loads of merch for sale, from tees and totes to records and stickers.
The walls were turned into a shrine for the band, showcasing posters and photography from throughout their illustrious career.
And the crowds came through in a big way, queueing halfway down the street for a chance to be totally immersed in all things Pulp.
So much so, The Rat & Pigeon (who hosted the Manchester edition) have warned on social media: "Note to @hallamshire_hotel - you WILL be 10x busier than you expect - even if it’s pissing it down. Enjoy!"
For their Sheffield pop-up, all we know for sure is the location (The Hallamshire Hotel) and the date (30 October).
More details are set to be announced soon.
