Seventeen-time Grammy Award-winning artist Sting announces summer shows for 2025 as part of his STING 3.0 World Tour.

With virtuoso guitarist and longtime collaborator, Dominic Miller, and dynamic drummer Chris Maas (Mumford & Sons, Maggie Rogers), the band will perform the most electrifying hits and rarities from Sting’s timeless discography at a number of outdoor and festivals next year.

Following their hugely successful headline performance at BBC Radio 2 In The Park in Preston, Sting’s UK shows will include headline sets at Isle of Wight Festival and Latitude next summer.

 

Known for his groundbreaking work as a solo artist and as the frontman and songwriter in the seminal group The Police, Sting, managed by Martin Kierszenbaum/Cherrytree Music Company, has consistently pushed the boundaries of musical innovation throughout his illustrious career.

The STING 3.0 Tour represents a new dynamic era showcasing selections from his vast catalogue through the urgent lens of a tight three-piece combo and inspired his new song, I Wrote Your Name (Upon My Heart) – mixed by four-time Grammy Award-winning mix engineer Robert Orton .
