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."
