Adele is a creature of comfort, convenience and, apparently, continuity.
The powerhouse vocalist has scheduled a small run of shows in Munich, Germany, this summer beginning in August after she closes her Weekends With Adele residency at Caesars Palace in Las Vegas in June.
The “Hello” and “Easy On Me” singer, 35, will play shows at Munich Messe on August 2, 3, 9 and 10, billing them as “exclusive European performances.”
The British balladeer appeared to get ahead of the announcement early Tuesday, posting an animated gif of glamorous portraits set to “Oh My God” from her album “30.” Her teaser post led her fans to speculate about a world tour, a new album, or the announcement of a documentary. What they got was a mini residency and a new set of opportunities to see her perform live.
“A few months ago I got a call about a series of summer shows. I have been very happy with my shows in London's Hyde Park. [in 2022] and my residency in Las Vegas, so I had no other plans,” he wrote Tuesday night on Instagram.
“However, I was too curious not to go ahead and get carried away with this idea: a unique, bespoke temporary stadium, designed around whatever show I wanted to put on? Oh!? Practically a real success in the center of Europe? In Munich? That's a little random, but still fabulous! Right after euros? Come on England! With the Olympic Games next door? Go ahead Simon! And do some of my favorite artists put on shows too? Just because!!”
The “Rolling in the Deep” singer noted that she had not played in Europe since 2016, likely during Adele Live, her third concert tour, as well as playing Hyde Park in London in 2022. The singer, who has since settled in Los Angeles with his son Angelo and who travels to Las Vegas for his weekend appearances, said he “could not think of a more wonderful way to spend the summer and end this beautiful stage of my life and career with shows closer to home during such an exciting summer. .”
“Guten Tag girls x,” he added.
Munich Messe, also known as Messe München, is an exhibition center and Adele's shows will take place in an open-air stadium created for her quartet's performances. Pre-registration for the shows is now underway on Adele's website; that window extends until February 5. Those who register will receive a link on February 6 and the pre-sale will begin on February 7. As with her shows Weekend With Adele, registration does not guarantee a ticket.
