Classic rock legends 10cc are heading back out on the road after the immense success of their brilliantly titled And Another Bloody Greatest Hits Tour — and this time, they’re bringing the show back across the UK for a brand-new run in Spring 2027.
The iconic ’70s hitmakers announced the exciting news on Tuesday, sending a wave of nostalgia, excitement and probably more than a few questionable dad-dance moves across the country.
And for us Welsh lot, the tour begins in exactly the right place.
The new run kicks off on 25 February 2027 at Venue Cymru in Llandudno, before travelling across the UK and wrapping up one month later on 25 March 2027 at The Globe in Stockton.
That’s right, butt — North Wales gets the opening night. Proper job. 🐉🎶
🎤 Another Bloody Tour — Because the Last One Was Massive
The newly announced dates will continue under the same And Another Bloody Greatest Hits Tour banner, following the enormous success of the previous run.
Recent tours have seen 10cc performing to sold-out crowds across Europe, proving that their combination of sharp songwriting, rich harmonies and instantly recognisable classics remains as popular as ever.
More than five decades after first emerging from the British rock and pop scene, 10cc are still packing venues, still delivering the goods and still reminding audiences that a truly great song never goes out of fashion.
The latest UK extension is set to build on that touring momentum, giving longtime followers and newer fans another chance to experience the band’s legendary catalogue live.
No gimmicks needed.
Just songs.
Massive, beautifully crafted, gloriously timeless songs.
🎶 A Greatest-Hits Catalogue Most Bands Would Sell Their Tour Bus For
Calling the tour a greatest-hits show is no exaggeration.
10cc have one of the most recognisable back catalogues in British music, blending rock, pop, art-rock, satire and studio experimentation into a sound that remains completely their own.
Their collection of classics includes the dreamy and unmistakable I’m Not in Love, the reggae-flavoured swagger of Dreadlock Holiday, the heartfelt brilliance of The Things We Do for Love and the infectious rock ’n’ roll bounce of Rubber Bullets.
Then there’s The Wall Street Shuffle, Art for Art’s Sake, Donna, Life Is a Minestrone, Good Morning Judge and enough clever hooks to keep an entire theatre singing all the way home.
These aren’t simply songs from the past.
They’re part of the soundtrack of British music history.
They’ve played on car radios, kitchen stereos, pub jukeboxes and family record players for generations — and hearing them performed live is a completely different experience.
When those opening notes hit, you’re not just listening to a song.
You’re remembering where you were, who you were with and probably what wonderfully dodgy hairstyle you had at the time.
🌊 Llandudno Gets the Opening-Night Honour
The tour’s opening date at Venue Cymru in Llandudno is a particularly tasty one for Welsh rock fans.
Situated on the North Wales coast, Venue Cymru has welcomed countless major touring artists over the years, and it now gets the honour of launching 10cc’s latest UK adventure.
There’s something rather glorious about one of Britain’s most beloved bands beginning a major tour beside the Welsh seaside in February.
Cold wind outside.
Classic tunes inside.
Probably someone clutching chips while battling a seagull before doors open.
That’s rock ’n’ roll, mun.
The band will then travel around the country throughout March before bringing the tour to a close at The Globe in Stockton on 25 March 2027.
With the previous tour performing so strongly and European dates selling out, demand for the new shows is likely to be high.
🤘 Still Delivering More Than 50 Years Later
Plenty of artists can survive on nostalgia.
10cc have never needed to.
Their songs remain clever, distinctive and musically ambitious, filled with layered vocals, unexpected arrangements and lyrics that range from heartfelt to hilariously sharp.
That attention to detail is one of the reasons their music has lasted.
The band helped prove that pop music could be catchy without being disposable, experimental without becoming inaccessible and funny without turning into novelty nonsense.
That balance has ensured that 10cc’s music continues to connect with audiences who weren’t even born when many of these songs first climbed the charts.
Their live shows also bring the catalogue to life with musicianship, warmth and the kind of relaxed confidence that only comes from decades spent mastering your craft.
This isn’t a tribute act desperately chasing the past.
This is the real thing — celebrating a body of work that still sounds ridiculously good.
🎸 The Riff Report Says
Some tour titles require careful explanation.
And Another Bloody Greatest Hits Tour tells you everything you need to know.
10cc have got a mountain of brilliant songs, people still want to hear them and the band are more than happy to keep playing them.
Fair enough, really.
With sold-out European runs behind them and another UK adventure on the horizon, 10cc appear to be enjoying one of the strongest touring periods of their long career.
The fact that the new leg begins in Wales only makes the announcement sweeter.
From the delicate atmosphere of I’m Not in Love to the sunny groove of Dreadlock Holiday, this promises to be an evening of immaculate songwriting, giant singalongs and enough nostalgia to make an old vinyl collection start trembling with excitement.
So polish the glasses, warm up the vocal cords and prepare to loudly sing every word despite claiming you “only know a couple of songs.”
10cc are back on the road in 2027.
And frankly, we’re bloody delighted. 🎸🔥
