Chris Brown, 36, is free to commence his U.K. and Ireland tour that begins in Manchester on June 15, two days after his trial is due to start.

Chris Brown, the singer and rapper facing trial in the United Kingdom next month for an alleged nightclub attack, was released on $6.7 million bail after a Wednesday hearing.

Judge Tony Baumgartner told Southwark Crown Court on Wednesday that Brown could be freed subject to a £5 million ($6.7 million) bail payment, which would be forfeited if certain conditions are not met or he fails to turn up at his next court appearance, the British Press Association reported.

Brown was not present in court for the bail hearing.

The singer is accused of causing grievous bodily harm by throwing a tequila bottle in a nightclub in Manchester in 2023. He has yet to enter a plea in the case.
