I’ll admit it: I never really understood the hype around Dua Lipa. Sure, her songs are catchy enough – good for a workout playlist or the background of a bottomless brunch – but I didn’t quite get the obsession.
And then I saw her headline Glastonbury last summer. By the time she hit her fourth song, I’d opened my Spotify and started adding tracks mid-performance. By the encore, I was fully converted.
There was something electric about the way she owned the Pyramid Stage – confident, effortless and entirely in control. It was one of those rare sets that make you forget you’re standing in a field with aching feet and overpriced burgers. It felt like pop stardom in its purest, dazzling form.
Thankfully, fans across the UK and Ireland don’t have to wait for another festival to see her live. Dua is bringing her show to London, Liverpool and Dublin this June, and whether you’re a casual listener or a committed stan, here’s why it’s 100% worth grabbing an official or resale ticket.
Dua’s Glasto set was a full-on spectacle. The staging was sleek, the lighting was cinematic, and the visuals elevated every beat drop. It felt curated, as if every second was meticulously planned to create a mood.
And based on teaser clips and fan footage from recent shows, her summer tour is keeping that same level of polish. Think high-gloss choreography, dramatic costume changes and hypnotising visuals.
Dua’s dancing has come a long way – and she knows it. Glastonbury was a full-circle moment for her: high-energy routines, confident struts and backup dancers that matched her vibe perfectly.
It wasn’t just choreography for the sake of it – it added momentum to the set, making every song feel like part of a bigger story. Her on-stage confidence is magnetic, and her energy is infectious.
I went to her headline set thinking I’d watch a bit of her performance and then drift off to the bar. Instead, I stayed for the whole thing – singing along to the choruses I didn’t even realise I knew and replaying her setlist the next morning.
Dua Lipa knows how to win the crowd over. And if you’re already a fan, you’re in for a treat.
Tickets for Dua’s UK and Ireland shows – London, Liverpool and Dublin – are still available via resale and some face-value platforms. Prices vary, but trust me: the moment she hits the stage and those opening notes start up, you won’t regret it.
Here are all the links you need:
While resale sites are an option, there are still official, first-hand tickets available for Dua’s shows, primarily via Seat Unique.
