The momentum around the return of The 1975 continues to grow, with the band now announcing a huge run of UK tour dates for November. Full dates and ticket details are below. 

Earlier this week, the band sparked fear of their split among fans, before returning the next day with a new pink logo and new album artwork. Now, they're back to announce shows to go along with it. 

"Dear friends of The 1975," wrote frontman Matt Healy in a letter. "I/we/The 1975 are currently in production of our second full length record. It's creation signifies the end of the most inspiring ang challenging time that we've had as friends and artists. We simply couldn't of imagined connecting with as many people as we have since the release of our debut in 2013."

He continued: "We have toured the world playing over 25,000 shows in 400 different counties (that's a slight exaggeration but it was a lot) and we have had the privilege of encountering the countless faces that make up our incredibly loyal and ebulliently peculiar fanbase. It is that loyalty that inspired me to write this letter, scrappy as it may be. This is the beginning of a new chapter for The 1975. Our new record signified the start of a new world for us, a more colourful world."

Healy later added: "I'll see you soon with more music and dreams and you've known the title all along."
