How to get tickets and presale for Russell Watson's Scottish shows as classical singer announces 2025 tour

Released in 2000, Watson will celebrate The Voice with shows around the UK - including two in Scotland, with dates lined up for both Aberdeen and Glasgow.

As one of the country’s most accomplished classical recording artists - and also the first UK artist to earn No. 1 in both the UK and the US - he will perform some of his best known tracks as well as new numbers alongside a band and string section.

Speaking about the tour, Russell said: I can hardly believe it’s been 25 years since I released The Voice and embarked on this incredible journey. Looking back, I’m immensely grateful for every experience—performing for royalty, duetting with legends, and connecting with fans around the world.

“This tour is a chance for me to revisit the music that has meant so much to me and to those who’ve been on this journey with me. It’s not just a celebration of the past; it’s a new chapter, and I’m more passionate than ever to bring these songs to life on stage. I can’t wait to share this milestone with everyone in the audience.”
