Former X Factor winner Joe McElderry has unveiled details of his first ever UK tour, due to take place later this year. The tour will visit 16 venues across the UK during November, and includes a tour finale show at London's Royal Festival Hall.

Joe McElderry's November UK tour will get underway with a show at Southend Cliffs Pavilion on Tuesday 8th November. Joe will then travel around the country stopping at: Birmingham Symphony Hall (9th), Nottingham Royal Centre (10th), Edinburgh Festival Theatre (12th), Manchester Lowry (13th), Cardiff St David's Hall (14th), Aberdeen Music Hall (16th), Newcastle City Hall (17th), Middlesbrough Town Hall (18th), Dundee Caird Hall (20th), Glasgow Royal Concert Hall (21st), Liverpool Philharmonic Hall (22nd), York Barbican (23rd), Reading Hexagon (25th), Brighton Dome (26th) and London Royal Festival Hall (27th).

Joe McElderry recently announced that his second studio album, which is due to be released on the 22nd August, will feature a collection of 'classic' songs. The shift in musical direction has no doubt come about as a result of Joe's recent win on the ITV show Popstar to Operastar.

Tickets to see Joe McElderry on his UK tour go on general sale at 9am on Friday 26th August.
