Fans rejoiced when BLUR announced that they were to return to the stage for a massive headline show at Wembley stadium next year…

Well, Sweden’s Way Out West festival organisers have some more amazing news for you: BLUR IS COMING TO WAY OUT WEST!

What was presented as a one-off luckily wasn’t, which means that the iconic London four-piece will bring their much-loved discography to Slottskogen for what promises to be a show to remember.

“We really love playing these songs and thought it’s about time we did it again,” singer Damon Albarn said in a statement and with songs like ‘Song 2’, ‘Parklife’, ‘Girls & Boys’, ‘Tender’, ‘Coffee & TV’ and ‘Ghost Ship’ in your back pocket it’s hard to blame him. The last time the Britpop-legends broke the silence was when they triumphantly returned with the critically acclaimed album ‘The Magic Whip’ in 2015 but that was seven years ago. And that is seven years too long.

Tickets are on sale now from our friends Ticketmaster Sweden and as a little on sale treat, organisers are adding three additional acts to the bill.  Please welcome Melbourne-based punk quartet AMYL & THE SNIFFERS, Ghana’s brightest shining star BLACK SHERIF and the crate-digging indie trio TV GIRL to Way Out West 2023!
