Cher has announced she will tour the UK next year.

The US singer’s five shows will be her first live dates in the UK in more than 14 years.

The concerts in October are part of the star’s Here We Go Again world tour.

She kicks off at the O2 in London on October 20 before heading to Manchester, Birmingham, Glasgow and Leeds.

“I’m very excited to bring this show to the UK,” said the 72-year-old singer.

“It was the first country to embrace Sonny & Cher, and it is where we created and had our first success with Believe.

“It’s really my second home.”
