Rumours are swirling online regarding Prince’s announcement of his forthcoming UK tour, with signs pointing to a surprise gig at Camden’s Electric Ballroom club in the early hours of Wednesday (5th February).

According to multiple sources, Prince has just finished his closed press conference at Lianne La Havas’s apartment, performing two acoustic tracks, Pretzelbodylogic and FunkNRoll, for Channel 4 (the only press allowed entry) and Seatwave. It’s likely that a full open press conference will take place at 3am at the Camden venue, with a full show to support the announcement.

Twitter rumours have continued that the London venue will play host to all the mini gigs, between 8th-16th February – if true, with a capacity of only 1,000, this will be one of the most sought-after events in recent times.

**UPDATE** Prince has confirmed he is to play at Electric Ballroom AGAIN on Wednesday 5th February.

Music Week have also added fuel to fire, tweeting commentary similar to the above:
