There seems to be more tickets available to some of the Mumford & Sons UK shows!
I saw someone post on the M&S forum about this and someone said they managed to get tickets! There doesn’t seem to be tickets for all of them, some of them still say sold out but quite a few appear to have more tickets! I don’t know why this hasn’t been announced or if it’s Musicglue being dodgy but I think there’s tickets there!
I haven’t bought any because I can’t go, so I don’t want to get anyone’s hopes up but in the off chance that this will help some of you GO GO GO before the touts get them!
More specifically, there are still tickets available for the shows in:
- Huddersfield
- Bury St Edmunds
- Lowestoft
- Gateshead
- Galway
Go get yours before they’re gone!

Hi, i saw mumford and sons were promoting their huddersfield gig by taking pictures there. I was wondering if you know whether or not they'll be doing the same for their gateshead gig? i'd love to meet them! thank you
I believe they’re scouting out Galway and Huddersfield specifically because those are the locations for their Gentlemen of the Road Stopovers, and they’re looking for different venues for side-concerts, after-parties and the like. Since there’s not a Stopover in Gateshead, I doubt they’ll head that way for promotional purposes, but I could be wrong. If I find out otherwise, I promise to post it here as soon as possible. Thanks for the question!

Mumford & Sons UK Tour Announcement: GENTLEMEN OF THE ROAD STOPOVER SHOWS IN HUDDERSFIELD AND GALWAY ANNOUNCED

From the Mumford & Sons Official Website:
We are very pleased to announce details of a series of ‘Gentlemen of the Road Stopover…’ shows this Summer. To explain more, here’s word from the band themselves:
“The Gentlemen of the Road Stopover is based loosely upon our favourite festivals like Colorado’s Telluride Bluegrass and Scotland’s Loopallu Festivals.
We want to stop off in towns not usually heavily toured by bands, and celebrate the people, food and music that inhabit them. We’re keen to promote the town’s local businesses, and we’ll be using the local bars and venues for aftershow parties, whilst working closely with the local people to get everyone involved in making these shows spectacular.
There will be a host of our friends playing too, and the vibe falls somewhere between ‘travelling Victorian circus’ and ‘Victorian travelling circus’. It should be a whole lot of fun.”
The one-day outdoor events will tour globally and will be headlined and curated by Mumford & Sons, with heavy involvement from local communities, from the produce sold on the sites, to engaging visitors with the towns as a whole.
In addition to the 2 confirmed Stopover shows, the band will also play a series of evening gigs preceding and inbetween, with the support acts selected from the summer show line-ups. Here are the dates and venues.
Gentlemen of The Road presents:
- 30th May – St David’s Hall, Cardiff
- 31st May – Leas Cliff Pavilion, Folkestone
- 2nd June - Gentlemen of the Road Stopover In Huddersfield – Mumford & Sons, Willy Mason, Michael Kiwanuka, Nathaniel Rateliff, The Correspondents

- 5th June – Marina Theatre, Lowestoft
- 6th June – The Sage, Gateshead
- 9th June – Gentlemen of the Road Stopover In Galway – Mumford & Sons, The Vaccines, Willy Mason, Zulu Winter, Nathaniel Rateliff, The Correspondents
