Dua Lipa gets "the best welcome home ever" at Manchester AO Arena

There aren’t many bigger names in pop right now than Dua Lipa. And last night, as the UK and Ireland-leg of her hugely anticipated Future Nostalgia tour kicked off at Manchester’s AO Arena, she proved why.

Screams and cheers echoed around the jam-packed venue as the 26-year-old singer made her entrance wearing an form-fitting, eye-catching pink catsuit. "This is the best welcome home ever", she told the crowd, all up on their feet from the get-go.

She opened with Physical, a catchy track from her 2020 album and the name of the tour. Next was New Rules, one of the singer’s first big hits from her debut self-titled album.
