The Songbook Tour will celebrate Gary Barlow’s status as one of Britain’s most successful songwriters and record producers. As part of the group Take That, he has won eight BRIT Awards and sold over 45 million records.

One of the band’s biggest hits, ‘Back For Good’, will turn 30 in March 2025 too. The track is still ranked as one of the UK’s favourite-ever pop songs having reached number one on its release in March 1995 and remaining top of the charts for four consecutive weeks, going on to become the band’s biggest-selling song of the 90s.

This year, Gary hit the road with his fellow Take That bandmates for a huge world tour, playing sell-out shows and delighting their huge fanbase around the world with This Life On Tour, which saw them sell over one million tickets. Their album of the same name, ‘This Life’, released in 2023, scored the band their 12th number one album in the UK.

The band also curated their very own four-day festival in Malta in October - The Greatest Weekend, where they performed their album 'Everything Changes' live, in its entirety for the first time since its release in 1993.

Aside from his achievements with Take That, he has also co-written and produced music for other acclaimed artists including Dame Shirley Bassey, Sir Elton John and Robbie Williams. In more recent years, the singer has also been busy curating his own award-winning wine range, Gary Barlow Wines, which has led to over 10 million of glasses of wine sold.
