Last updated 19th Jun 2026
Status Quo legend Francis Rossi has extended his ‘Songbook: Quo – Past, Present, Future’ UK tour into 2027 and tickets are now on sale from Aloud.com
Following his previously announced autumn 2026 shows, the second leg of Francis Rossi’s tour features 31 shows, kicking off at Wimborne Tivoli Theatre on Wednesday 17th March 2027 and wrapping up at Lowestoft Marina Theatre on Saturday 8th May 2027.
The shows will boast a hand-picked selection of Status Quo classics, some deep cuts; and he is also working up a new medley.
It will be the only place to hear Francis’ own selections and interpretations from his incredible catalogue, plus the added bonus of some commentary and insight from the great man himself.
The strictly limited VIP Soundcheck Experience ticket will include access to soundcheck and an exclusive performance of two songs not featured in the main show; a stage / tech rundown with Francis’ sound engineer; and one of the best seats in the house for the main show.
Additionally, VIP ticket holders will receive a limited-edition signed 7” single (available only with VIP access), and an exclusive tour lanyard.
Francis Rossi says: “I am delighted to extend this run on from the thirty dates already announced for later this year. The pressure is on once more, as I have put together a really packed new show.
“I have really enjoyed taking the current show into Europe but can’t wait to get back out on the road in the UK again with this one. I’ll be keeping a whole lot of the hits in the set, of course, but also mixing it up with a couple of curveballs.
“These theatre shows are a great way to really connect with the audience, and try something a little bit different.”
