Billy Idol is coming to Glasgow OVO Hydro arena on UK tour - how to get tickets, setlist and full tour dates

Rock legend Billy Idol is set to visit Glasgow this week as part of his ‘The Roadside Tour 2022’ that includes some of the most famous venues across the country such as Wembley Arena, Resorts Arena and more. The White Wedding singer will be heading out with some new music and a stack of timeless classics for his first appearances with two special guests, Killing Joke after Television were forced to make a last minute withdrawal, alongside his other tour guest, Toyah.

Idol kicked off his tour in Manchester last week and will be performing all of his greatest hits in Glasgow at the OVO Hydro Arena on Friday, October 21. He will then head back down south for the final two shows in Birmingham and Leeds.
