Lana Del Rey will be kicking off her UK tour in Cardiff next year.

The Summertime Sadness singer will be at the Principality Stadium on 23 June marking the stars first time ever performing in Wales.

The gig will be part of the singer's biggest ever UK and Ireland tour, and will see her playing stadiums in Glasgow, Liverpool, Dublin and London.

The 39-year-old topped the bill at this year's Reading and Leeds festival and also headlined the famous American festival Coachella.

The American singer-songwriter hit the headlines when her set was cut short at Glastonbury 2023 after she was late to perform - blaming the 30-minute delay on her hairstylists - which she apologised for.

Del Rey - real name Elizabeth Woolridge Grant - shot to fame in 2011 after her single Video Games was released, followed by her self-titled debut album.

She has since released nine albums and scooped a number of accolades, including two BRIT awards, while cultivating a mysterious, glamorous image.

She will join the likes of Oasis and Bruce Springsteen in beginning her UK tour at Cardiff's Principality Stadium next summer.

Tickets go on sale on Friday at 10:00 GMT.
