He's not finished just yet, as the Grammy, Tony, and Emmy award-winning legend Barry Manilow will return to the UK for his Last Last Concerts.
Yes we thought he'd finished touring too but luckily for us, he's not done quite yet.
Barry Manilow, hard on the heels of his sold-out fifteen concerts in London, has just announced a final round of arena tours taking place in 2026.
He'll be performing in six UK cities, including right here at the First Direct Bank Arena in Leeds on 11 June 2026.
Barry Manilow, whose timeless hits include Mandy, Copacabana (At the Copa), and Could It Be Magic, has entranced audiences for decades with his incredible performances and showmanship.
He's classed as one of music's best entertainers, so you already know he's going to bring a fabulous show to Leeds next June.

Barry Manilow spoke about the tour himself: “I swear, I SWEAR I really meant it when I said goodbye to everyone in the UK on the last night of our fantastic run at the great London Palladium. The audiences there were fantastic as usual and that last night was very moving, knowing that I wouldn’t be seeing my U.K. friends anymore.
"…But I guess ‘leave ’em wanting more’ was a good rule to follow. After all, I’m 100 years old and any day now I’m probably going to lose my hair, gain a big pot belly and need a cane to dance around to Copacabana. But, as of now I can still run around the stage, I can still hit the high F Natural at the end of Even Now and I still look fabulous!
"But I said goodbye and I meant it. Sort of. There was just one thing. I don’t wanna say goodbye! So we’re coming back. We’re going to have a great, big Barry Manilow concert! Hope you all come. We’ll have a ball! Love, Barry.”
Tickets for Barry Manilow at the first direct bank Arena go on sale at 10am this Friday 5 September. You can get yours here.
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).
