PETER HOOK & THE LIGHT have announced a North American tour for May and June 2025 where they will perform the New Order album Get Ready in its entirety, alongside a selection of the most seminal tracks from the rich back catalogs of both Joy Division and New Order.

Get Ready was released in 2001 and reached #2 on the US Billboard Electronic album chart and #6 in the UK album chart. It was the seventh studio album from New Order and was dedicated by the band to Rob Gretton, the manager of both Joy Division and New Order who had died in 1999.
The newly announced dates follow a mammoth run of live shows in 2024, taking in tours of Australia, New Zealand, South America, North America and the UK and Ireland which have seen the band play the Substance albums by Joy Division and New Order in full.
Peter Hook first revisited the seminal Joy Division album Unknown Pleasures back in May 2010 for a commemorative charity concert and has followed it each year by performing subsequent albums from the repertoire of his bands, Joy Division and New Order. His dedication to his back catalogue has now seen him move through Unknown Pleasures, Closer, Still, Movement, Power Corruption & Lies, Low Life, Brotherhood, Technique and Republic to arrive at the Substance albums this year and Get Ready next year. Having toured the albums extensively, the band have now amassed over 800 concerts.
Among the many highlights since he reintroduced his early repertoire to a legion of audiences across the world, both new and old, have been appearances at Benicassim, Primavera Sound, Kendal Calling, Bestival, Victorious and Rebellion, alongside extensive touring in Europe, North and South America, China, Japan, Australia and New Zealand to great acclaim from both fans and critics alike.
