Lionel Richie has today confirmed that his European summer tour has been postponed.

“Due to the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic it is with a heavy heart that Lionel Richie has confirmed that his tour of Europe will no longer take place in 2020.

Every consideration has been given to the safety and wellbeing of the fans, band, crew and event organisers, but owing to the current and ongoing health crisis and subsequent governmental rulings it is no longer possible to undertake the tour.

Considerable effort is being made to reschedule Lionel’s appearance on these dates to take place in the summer of 2021.

A full list of the new dates will be shared with you shortly, but in the meantime please visit the individual festival/event websites for further information.”
