Following front man Glenn Frey's death in January 2016, the Eagles re-formed in 2017, with Glenn's son Deacon Frey and Vince Gill sharing lead vocals for Frey's songs.
Founding member Don Henley will also return with Joe Walsh and Timothy B.Schmit.
During their last visit to Scotland, the Eagles sold out the Hydro, but ahead of it they issued a ban on fans recording footage during the concert. Mobile phones were allowed into the venue, but those going to the show were warned they can't record.
However, a similar ban has yet to be announced that applies to the 2022 date.
As the best-selling American band of the 70s, and one of the top-selling acts of all time, the Eagles have sold more than 200 million albums worldwide, scored six number one albums and topped the singles charts five times. They have won six GRAMMY Awards and were also inducted into the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in 1998.
Tickets for the concert will go on sale from 9am on Friday November 5 at LiveNation.co.uk.
