Pet Shop Boys will bring their Dreamworld Max: The Greatest Hits Live tour to The O2 to celebrate the venue’s 20th anniversary.

The electropop duo will play the London venue on 9 and 10 July, with Saint Etienne, the 1990s electronic band, and US group Boy Harsher will support across the two dates.

Tickets go on general sale at 10am on 13 November via The O2 website. Tickets for the other anniversary concerts are already on sale.

The band, formed by singer Neil Tennant and keyboard player Chris Lowe, joins a line-up for the milestone that already includes Santana, Kings Of Leon, Sombr, David Guetta, Jorja Smith and Jamiroquai.

Emma Bownes, senior vice president of venue programming at AEG International – which owns and operates The O2, said: “Pet Shop Boys are one of the most influential and celebrated acts in British music history, so we’re delighted to welcome them to The O2 as part of our 20th birthday celebrations.

“Their Dreamworld Max: The Greatest Hits Live show brings together an extraordinary catalogue of hits that have soundtracked generations, and these greatest hits shows will be a fitting addition to what is already shaping up to be an unforgettable anniversary year at The O2.”

Since forming in 1981, Pet Shop Boys have achieved four UK number one singles and 19 top 10 albums, including one number one.

Despite their success, the duo admitted there’s one huge name they still wish they could have made music with.

Speaking at The Guardian Live “An evening with Pet Shop Boys” event, Tennant and Lowe expressed regret over never having worked with jazz legend Nina Simone.

Simone, who died in 2003 at her home in France at the age of 70, became known for her blend of jazz, gospel and blues, including singles “I Loves You, Porgy”, “My Baby Just Care for Me”, and the Screamin’ Jay Hawkins cover “I Put a Spell on You”.

Tennant and Lowe also revealed they had planned a full album with Dusty Springfield but the “Son of a Preacher Man” singer passed away in 1999 before they could start recording the follow up to their collaboration on her thirteenth studio album, Reputation.

The north Greenwich venue opened in 2007, after the Millennium Experience ended there at the end of 2000, when it was known as the Millennium Dome.

It has since hosted more than 6,800 events.
