Grammy-winning singer and record-breaker Adele is set to go on a tour following the release of her newest album "25." It will be the first tour she's having after over four years.
Adele announced the details of her tour on her Facebook page with a goofy video and she had the map of Europe in the background. "I'm so relieved to finally tell you that I am, of course, coming on tour and I can't wait to see you all there," the "Hello" singer told fans. She proceeded to point the places on the map like a teacher and also provided the schedules on her official website.
The tour will kick off in Belfast on Feb. 29, 2016 at the SSE Arena and tickets will begin selling by Dec. 4, 2015. Adele is scheduled to also perform in Dublin, Manchester, London, Glasgow, Birmingham, Stockholm, Oslo, Copenhagen, Berlin, Hamburg, Cologne, Zurich, Lisbon, Barcelona, Verona, Amsterdam, Paris and Antwerp between March and June.

Unfortunately, Adele's tour dates doesn't include visits to the United States and fans on the other side of the pond are quite upset about this, per E! Online.
The Guardian reported that there is still more spaces to fill up the tour dates, with a possibility that the singer could perform at the Glastonbury festival next year. Adele was actually present at that music event when Kanye West was its main performer last June.
"When I was there I was like 'yeah I can do this'. But then when I watched it and I saw that crowd - I wasn't anywhere near the stage and it was the biggest crowd I'd ever seen," she said in the Guardian report. "I froze with fear, I just thought 'I don't know if I can do that.'"
Daily Mail reported that Adele once said she didn't enjoy going on tour before. "There is something quite lonely about going on stage in front of loads of people and then everyone going home," the "Chasing Pavements" singer confessed. "I'm sure they would hang out with me, if I invited them back to my hotel, but I feel quite on my own a lot on tour."
BBC reported that Adele's tour in 2011 was cut short due to a medical issue as the singer experienced vocal cord hemorrhage and had to undergo surgery. It's one of the reasons why Adele has been apprehensive about touring this time, as previously reported on Parent Herald.
