Kicking off in Moscow on July 2, the stint will see Björk revisit the acoustic string arrangements from her extensive back catalogue.
Further shows will follow in Helsinki and Berlin, along with a two-night billing at Paris’ Seine Musicale venue.
Björk will then return to UK shores to play her previously-announced headline show at Bluedot Festival, which takes place at Cheshire’s iconic Jodrell Bank Observatory. The festival appearance will see Björk perform alongside Manchester’s historic Halle Orchestra.
Tickets for the Björk Orchestral tour will go on general sale this coming Friday (February 28) at 10 am. You can purchase them here.
Described as “breathtaking” by fans, the show also included a message from environmental campaigner Greta Thunberg. The words “Imagine a future. Be in it” were simultaneously projected across the stage.
