The tour at a glance


A "last" farewell: The tour title is a playful acknowledgement of Manilow's earlier "farewell" dates in the UK, including a successful 15-date residency at The London Palladium in 2024.


Musician, entertainer, legend: Recent reviews from his 2024 shows praised Manilow's enduring energy and showmanship, with one reviewer noting that at nearly 81, he could "run rings round the young ones".


His performances are known for mixing classic hits with his talented musicality, including playing parts of Chopin's Nocturne in C Minor to demonstrate its influence on "Could It Be Magic".


Past concerts suggest that attendees can expect a high-energy, nostalgic show featuring many of Manilow's classic hits, like "Mandy," "Copacabana," and "I Write The Songs". Fans are also known to use glowsticks during "Mandy". Manilow is known for sharing the stories behind his songs and entertaining the audience with humor. Some recent shows have included performances from special guests

2025: On returning to the UK for "The Last Last Concert"


In September 2025, Manilow announced his 2026 UK tour with a playful and self-deprecating quote, explaining why he was returning after his previous "farewell" dates in 2024:


"I said goodbye and I meant it. Sort of. There was just one thing. I don't wanna say goodbye! So we're coming back"

He added that he wasn't feeling worn out and still looked and felt great on stage, joking about his age in the process:


"It was odd flying home because I wasn't tired, my voice had held up for the entire run... But, as of now I can still run around the stage, I can still hit the high F Natural at the end of 'Even Now' and I still look fabulous!"
