Murray retired from tennis earlier this year, playing his final game at the Paris Olympics 21 years after his first professional match.
On the website, the event's description says: "In conversation with sports broadcaster Andrew Cotter, they'll recount intimate and untold moments from Andy's career in this unforgettable live experience.
"Andy's journey is far from over. Join him LIVE as he tells his story of perseverance, growth and finding a path beyond the court, ready to serve up his next adventure.
"Andy will be touring for four UK dates only, during the 2025 grass court season. Don't miss this chance to connect with a true sporting legend - game, set, chat!
"Given the exclusive and intimate nature of this event, the show will be a phoneless experience and all mobiles will be placed in lockable Yondr pouches."
How can I get tickets for the tour?
Murray said tickets would be available on his website from Thursday – more information can be found HERE.

Why are you making commenting on The National only available to subscribers?
We know there are thousands of National readers who want to debate, argue and go back and forth in the comments section of our stories. We’ve got the most informed readers in Scotland, asking each other the big questions about the future of our country.
Unfortunately, though, these important debates are being spoiled by a vocal minority of trolls who aren’t really interested in the issues, try to derail the conversations, register under fake names, and post vile abuse.
So that’s why we’ve decided to make the ability to comment only available to our paying subscribers. That way, all the trolls who post abuse on our website will have to pay if they want to join the debate – and risk a permanent ban from the account that they subscribe with.
The conversation will go back to what it should be about – people who care passionately about the issues, but disagree constructively on what we should do about them. Let’s get that debate started!
