Ugh Brexit this and Brexit that. If only you could change the vibe and live a better life. Well babe you absolutely can, and I don't just mean from the comfort of your own home or favourite club, I mean like in a huge arena tour with umpteen thousand like-minded fans. How bout that? Yes please I'll take it. Especially when the artist in question is the one and only Drake. Yes, the rapper has announced he is going on flipping tour, so let's see how to get tickets to Drake's UK & Europe tour.

The superstar rapper, the creator of infectious and addictive tunes —AKA Drizzy — dropped the huge news today. Did you hear that big thud earlier on? Yep that was the jaws of countless Drake fans hitting the floor on hearing their beloved is following "God's Plan" and crossing that big old pond for their entertainment. So let's hope you haven't blown all your money over Christmas. But even if you have, there will probably be ages until the tour right? Nope, wrong y'all. This tour is kicking off pretty darn soon, with the UK leg having 11 dates on Assassination Vacation tour.
