Transvision Vamp have announced their first UK tour since 1991. The 16-date tour will begin on October 6th in Newcastle and will headline 11 UK O2 main stage theatres and 5 independent theatres, including London at Shepherd’s Bush Empire. The tour will also travel to Belfast and Dublin.

Transvision Vamp’s iconic frontwoman Wendy James says, 

“Words cannot express the feelings I have to be touring Transvision Vamp again! Joy! Thrill!! The band’s history, which began in 1988, has passed through many eras! And yet, here we are, belting out the very songs which captured everyone’s hearts all those years ago. It is fresh, it is redux, it is powerful,” she adds, “I am surrounded by the best musicians in the world, and when we take to the stage, it is a force to be reckoned with. We take no prisoners. The crowds are ecstatic, and we meet as partners: The Band and The Audience are equal partners in this incredible show. I cannot wait to bring it to the UK and plant our flag!”
