Pop star Kylie Minogue, currently in the top ten with comeback single 2 Hearts, has announced a string of European concerts for 2008.
The 24-date tour kicks off in Paris on 6 May and will touch down in Germany, Finland and Sweden, amongst others.
Branded KylieX2008, the tour hits the UK in June, culminating in 2 nights at the O2 arena in London.
The Australian singer, 39, promised fans a "fresh, exhilarating and innovative" set.
Minogue's last tour was postponed after she was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005.
Following treatment, she returned to the stage in Sydney last December with a revamped show designed to be less physically demanding.
Despite the scaled-back dance numbers and the introduction of an interval, Minogue had to cancel two concerts in Manchester in January 2007 after contracting a respiratory infection.
The dates were later rescheduled.
The star, whose tenth album, X, was released on Monday, said her new tour "will be a look to the future but will definitely include favourites alongside the new".
Tickets for the UK dates go on sale on Monday 3 December.
