Bulgarian fans of the popular UK new wave band Depeche Mode received on Tuesday the exciting news of a planned concert in Sofia.

Depeche Mode will embark on a massive stadium tour through Europe next year, beginning May 7 and taking place across 34 locations in 25 countries, including Sofia, according to the popular music site Under The Radar.

The trek will be the band's first live shows since their 2009-10 Tour of the Universe, in which the band played 142 shows.

The band is expected to confirm the gigs' dates later in the day.

The show in Sofia has reportedly been scheduled for May 12 and will take place at Georgi Asparuhov stadium.

In the summer of 2006, Depeche Mode left over 35,000 Bulgarian fans breathless in a major Sofia gig.

A second concert in the summer of 2009 was axed after the band's efforts to reschedule the gigs, initially canceled due to singer Dave Gahan sickness, failed.
