Tickets will go on sale on Friday, February 9 for the London O2 Arena, where the band played two sold-out shows at the end of their November-December 2017 tour of the UK and Europe.
The summer shows will feature the group's new stage production, conceived around the 40th anniversary of Queen's "News of the World" album.
Queen + Adam Lambert first shared the stage in 2009, launching a partnership that has seen the US singer serve as the band's lead singer in more than 130 shows around the world. Before the summer dates, they will play ten sold-out arena shows in Australia and New Zealand.
