Alex Turner and the gang will kick things off in Perth before heading to the east coast with support act Mini Mansions – an LA trio made up of members from Queens of the Stone Age and The Last Shadow Puppets.

Their new album Tranquility Base Hotel & Casino marks a departure from their thick guitar sound, opting for the piano and a lounge pop vibe – set in a hotel on the moon.

Celebrating six studio albums, the Sheffield band can boast the fastest-selling debut album in UK history, and a Mercury Prize for Whatever People Say I Am, That’s What I Am.

Arctic Monkeys will be at RAC Arena on Saturday 23rd February. Tickets and more information available from Ticketek.
