A music legend is extending his comeback tour after coming out of retirement this year.<\/p>\n

Paul Simon<\/a> announced new \u201cQuiet Celebration Tour\u201d dates for 2026 in the UK and Europe. It\u2019ll be his first time performing in countries like England, Germany, Denmark and Belgium in nearly a decade.<\/p>\n

Tickets go on sale Dec. 17 via Ticketmaster<\/a>. Due to high demand, fans may also want to look for tickets on StubHub<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Simon, also known for his work with Art Garfunkel<\/a> as Simon & Garfunkel, previously went on a farewell tour in 2018. Simon called it quits due to significant hearing loss, which worsened during the making of his 2023 album \u201cSeven Psalms,\u201d but said he was able to return to performing with adjustments like speaker placement and setlist changes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt was incredibly frustrating. I was very angry at first that this had happened,\u201d Simon told CBS last year, adding that he feared going completely deaf.<\/p>\n

The singer-songwriter unretired for 50 U.S. tour dates in 2025<\/a>, but had to cancel a small number of shows halfway through the trek to undergo surgery due to back pain.<\/p>\n

Simon, 84, is a 16-time Grammy winner and a two-time member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, inducted as a solo artist and with Simon & Garfunkel. His catalog includes solo favorites like \u201c50 Ways to Leave Your Lover,\u201d \u201cMe and Julio Down by the Schoolyard,\u201d \u201cKodachrome,\u201d \u201cStill Crazy All These Years,\u201d and \u201cSlip Slidin\u2019 Away,\u201d plus folk-rock classics with Garfunkel like \u201cBridge Over Troubled Water,\u201d \u201cThe Sound of Silence,\u201d and \u201cMrs. Robinson.\u201d<\/p>\n
