Springsteen, a 20-time Grammy Award winner whose hits have included Born to Run, Dancing in the Dark and Glory Days, last performed in the UK in 2016.
Next year he will play 31 concerts in Europe.
Tickets are expected to cost between £50 and £150 and go on sale next Thursday at 9am.
The concerts will use Ticketmaster’s Verified Fan system, which aims to get more tickets to individual fans rather than bots buying large quantities to sell on resale sites.
Artists, including Adele, have used the system, requiring fans to register before purchasing a ticket.

The news was announced on Springsteen’s Twitter account in a statement that read: ‘Bruce & The E Street Band have announced four UK dates on their 2023 International Tour! The new dates mark their first UK shows since 5 June 2016 at Wembley Stadium.”
Springsteen has released 20 studio albums in his six-decade career.
His most recent studio album with E Street Band’s – Letter To You, which topped the charts in 11 countries – marked their first live recording in decades.
