wonderful venue.
“Louis was an integral part of the biggest global pop phenomenon of the last 20 years and is also a proud Yorkshireman, so this is going to be a must-see date for his fans.

But 2019 was the year he found his feet as a solo artist. He followed his award-winning return in March with a run of singles - Kill My Mind, Two of Us, We Made It and of Don’t Let It Break Your Heart.
Louis said: “I feel like this is the start of my career, with so much to look forward to and all the plans in place.
“Honestly, I’ve been through every emotion possible in the past few years and come out the other side stronger and more confident than I’ve ever been. I know I’ve made an album that my fans will like, one that sounds like me and has its own identity. There were times I wasn’t sure if this was what I should be doing. Now I can’t imagine doing anything else.”
Louis Tomlinson’s debut album WALLS is out now.
