American evangelist Franklin Graham is relaunching his UK tour.

It is set to begin in Liverpool on 14 May and will then visit South Wales and Sheffield, culminating at London’s Excel centre on 16 July. The events will be free.

The 2022 tour was announced to cheers from a crowd of 600 church leaders at the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association’s Evangelism Summit in London.

Case settled

His 2020 tour was postponed because of Covid-19 and various legal disputes, including the cancellation by Sheffield City Council of an event planned that year. The Billy Graham Evangelistic Association sued the council and Sheffield City Trust for breach of contract, but the council recently agreed to settle the claim – and allowed a new tour date of 25 May.
