“He is right up there with Queen, David Bowie, U2 and the Stones. This will be a show not to be missed. A great day out and a legend for our times,” he said.
Styles, who first came to public attention as a member of X-Factor creation One Direction, played a sold-out concert at the Aviva Stadium in Dublin this summer and is widely regarded as one of the most popular artists in music.
His self-titled debut solo album became one of the world’s top 10 bestselling albums of 2017, it topped charts all over the world including Ireland, the UK and the US, and had the biggest first week of sales by a male artist in history.
He followed that with the similarly chart-topping Fine Line two years later and released his equally popular third album, Harry’s House, in May of this year.
As well as being a huge success commercially, he has also won critical acclaim having won two Brit Awards, a Grammy Award, an Ivor Novello Award as well an American Music Award.
He was also the first man to appear solo on the cover of Vogue magazine.
Tickets will go on sale on Friday, September 2nd, at 2pm on the Ticketmaster site with prices starting at €97.10.
