If you weren't lucky enough to catch U2's great gig at Croke Park last summer, don't worry - you'll have another chance to see Bono and the boys this year.

Having released their latest album 'Songs of Experience' in December, the band have lined up a number of European dates on their 'eXPERIENCE + iNNOCENCE' tour.

The US leg kicks off in Oklahoma on May 2nd, while the European leg begins in Berlin on August 31st - travelling to Cologne, Paris, Madrid, Copenhagen, Hamburg, Amsterdam, Milan, Manchester and London in October.

There are also 'special home shows' planned for Dublin and Belfast, which promoters say 'details of which will be announced as soon as they are finalised'. Given the time of year and the fact that their European dates are arena dates, they're likely to be held in the 3Arena/SSE Arena.

Even if you're not a fan, their 'Innocence + Experience' show at the 3Arena a few years ago was a treat - so watch this space for more details.
