Cyndi Lauper has announced she will play the SSE Arena in Belfast as part of her Girls Just Wanna Have Fun Farewell Tour in February next year.

The tour has been billed as the 71-year-old singer's "first major run in a decade" in Europe, after she recently announced a US leg.

Lauper will play London, Manchester, Glasgow, Belfast and Birmingham before heading to Europe to play venues in Budapest, Lodz, Prague, Berlin, Dusseldorf and Paris.

The Time After Time singer will be joined by special guests who will be revealed at a later date.

The New York-born singer began her solo career in 1983, releasing the single Girls Just Wanna Have Fun, which hit number one in the Irish charts.

She had three more Irish top 10 singles with Time After Time and I Drove All Night.

She will begin the tour at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow on 8 February, before playing Manchester’s Co-Op Live, London’s O2 Arena and Birmingham’s Resorts World Arena.

She will play Belfast’s SSE Arena on 16 February, before Lauper moves on to mainland Europe, starting at the Sportarena in Budapest and finishing at the Accor Arena in Paris on February 28.

It was announced earlier this month that the US tour will run from October to December, including dates at New York’s Madison Square Garden and Detroit’s Fox Theatre.

Tickets for the European dates will go on general sale this Friday at 10am.
