Lily Allen previously announced her first tour dates in seven years to support her viral record West End Girl.
The British singer-songwriter surprised fans back in October when she released her fifth studio album, which details the breakdown of her marriage to Stranger Things actor David Harbour.
After selling out special intimate theatre dates next spring, which would see her play the confessional record in full and breaking records when her headline slot at The Mighty Hoopla went on sale, Allen has now added additional shows in summer next year.
The Alright Still singer will now take to UK arenas in June next year, with dates which include an epic homecoming show at The O2, London.
Fans can sign up for access to the pre-sale here.

Speaking about the making of the record with her exec producer Blue, she told Interview magazine there was lots of "vaping, "lots of crying," and "lots of storytelling".
"The night before I went into the studio, I wrote 18 track titles—no melodies, no lyrics. Nobody in the studio knew what was going on in my life. I got there, spent about two hours crying my[...] heart out, and then I was like, 'We’re going to write an album based on some of these feelings.' There were markers that I wanted to hit to give it a beginning, middle, and end."
Allen also revealed she was inspired by The Streets' iconic 2004 album A Grand Don't Come For Free, which she described as being "like a movie from start to finish".
"Each song can stand alone and make total sense, but together it’s more like a novel. I’ve always wanted to do that, and it just happened that way on this record."
Allen also then revealed she came up with the titles to each of her album tracks before anything else and then spent hours 'crying her heart out' and bringing it together.
