BONO has confirmed that U2 are planning to play at venues including the O2 on their 2015 arena tour.
The 54-year-old singer revealed that the band are looking forward to promoting their new album Songs of Innocence, and will aim to perform indoor gigs next year.
"We're gonna be touring. We're gonna start next year. We're gonna try and play the O2 and places like that, more indoors that outdoors this time, but we'll see where it takes us,” Bono said.
"It's exciting. We'll be coming your way and these songs are the songs that, I think... I think they will play themselves."
The With or Without You singer added that he finds it difficult leaving his family behind when he tours.
"Only if the songs are great can you bear leaving home. We all have families and mates and... so you know, you're looking for 11 great reasons to leave home and I think we've got them,” he said.
"You know what it's like now, it's like a whole city goes on the road with us. Our kids go out on the road, they get excited about it. It's like... yeah, it's kind of a whole... Dublin goes on the road."
The band will officially release Songs of Innocence on October 13 after giving the album away to 500 million iTunes users earlier this month.
