I recently received a Tier 1(PSW) visa to work in the UK, but it is only valid from 3 weeks prior to the start of my PSW visa valid date - 5th May. I am from Hong Kong, a holder of British National Oversea passport and don't require a visa to enter for tourism. I would like to arrive in the UK in on 11th April to attends a friend's wedding, also looking start to search of jobs. Since I already have a holiday plan to Spain in end of May. Is it possible for me to visit the UK as a tourist before the date of my visa's validity and then, leave the UK on 26th May and re-enter on 28th May once the Tier 1 (PSW) visa is valid?

Can someone please help!!!!

Sorry, have no idea. Have you tried asking the office that issued you your work visa? They would know better than anyone, it's their business.
