Barry Manilow announces final ever Scottish show - here's how you can get tickets, presale and more


Here is what you need to know about tickets to see the 82-year-old at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro next June.
Barry Manilow has announced he will perform in his final ever Scottish show in Glasgow next year.
Part of the music legend’s Last Last Concerts Tour, he will kick off his UK dates at the OVO Hydro next June.
Announcing the upcoming tour, Manilow promised that he meant for his shows at the London Palladium to be his last in the UK, praising the crowd after what was intended to be a last “very moving” night.
“But I guess ‘leave ‘em wanting more’ was a good rule to follow,” he wrote.
“After all, I’m 100 years old and any day now I’m probably going to lose my hair, gain a big pot belly and need a cane to dance around to Copacabana. But, as of now I can still run around the stage, I can still hit the high F Natural at the end of Even Now and I still look fabulous!”
He continued: “But I said goodbye and I meant it. Sort of. There was just one thing. I don’t wanna say goodbye! So we’re coming back.
“We’re going to have a great, big Barry Manilow concert! Hope you all come. We’ll have a ball!”
