Back in the UK by popular demand 'Queen Extravaganza' with singer Adam Lambert was one of the year's fastest selling tours. Queen fans will no doubt be thrilled to learn that there will be another chance to hear Queen's Greatest Hits performed live when 'Queen Extravaganza', the 'official' tribute band created by Roger Taylor and Brian May, return to the UK for another series of shows next year.

These new dates follow the band's 2015 and 2016 sold out UK tours which celebrated the 40th anniversary of Queen's iconic album, 'A Night At The Opera'. The tour culminated with a headlining show at the legendary Hammersmith Apollo in London, a venue once played by Queen themselves in the 1970s.
The 'Queen Extravaganza' - described by the legendary Roger Taylor himself as 'a rock celebration in the Royal tradition' and designed to enable new fans together with fans of old to celebrate the music of Queen - will play sixteen shows across England and Scotland beginning the end of October 2018 in Edinburgh with the tours grand finale in London on November 22.
Queen's Greatest Hits Tour 2018 promises to deliver all the hits any Queen fan could want to hear - 'Bohemian Rhapsody', 'Another One Bites the Dust', 'Crazy Little Thing Called Love', 'Under Pressure', 'We Will Rock You/We Are the Champions', 'A Kind of Magic', 'Radio Ga Ga' and 'Killer Queen' are just a few, all presented 100% live by some of today's finest musicians hand picked by Roger Taylor and Brian May themselves.
On announcing the dates, Brian May says: "Queen aficionados !!! This may be your only chance to see ALL of Queen's Greatest hits performed immaculately - LIVE !!".
"These guys are incredibly talented, with their scintillatingly perfect recreation of our songs" says Roger Taylor about the band.
Now headed for their sixth visit to the UK, the Queen Extravaganza has already played over 160 dates across the world and made appearances on TV shows such as American Idol where the performance was seen by over 20 million people.
