1. Sabrina Carpenter 

After shaping our Instagram feeds with earworms from her 2024 album Short n’ Sweet, Sabrina Carpenter is heading to the UK to celebrate with her tour of the same name. She first arrives in March, performing in venues across England, Scotland, and Ireland, before returning in July to perform at BST Hyde Park where, by popular demand, she will be performing not one, but two shows, on Saturday 5^th and Sunday 6^th. Tickets are on sale now!  

2. Charli XCX 

Forget Brat summer – we’re looking at a whole year of lime after Charlie XCX landed Brit Awards for Album, Artist, Song, Songwriter, and Dance Act of the year. The Brat Tour has been and gone for the UK, having started in Manchester last November, but worry not – Charlie XCX will return in the summer, performing at the LIDO Festival on the 14^th June and back again in Manchester the next day.  
 

3. Chappell Roan 

Hot off the press from six grammy nominations and an International Song of the Year win with ‘Good Luck, Babe!’, Chappell Roan is rocketing into festival season. She’ll hit England in August, headlining at Reading and Leeds on the 22^nd and 23^rd respectively. 

 
4. Hozier 

Headlining alongside Roan at Reading Festival is Hozier, whose top 5 US -charting single ‘Too Sweet’ has been a staple on our FYPs. Hozier’s visit to the UK is brief, sandwiched between stints in North America for his Unreal Unearthed tour, which he recently extended. 

5. Olivia Rodrigo 

Olivia Rodrigo is bringing her Guts World Tour to the UK, following the release of Guts (Spilled) last March, with shows in Manchester and Ireland in June and July. These will be briefly interrupted by a performance at BST Hyde Park, one of many festivals she’s playing at this year, on the 27^th June.  

6. Twenty One Pilots 

I couldn’t write an article about tours without indulging my guilty pleasure. Twenty One Pilots’ Clancy World Tour arrives in the UK in late spring, nearly a year after the release of the album it’s named after. Starting in Glasgow before travelling south, the band will finish off their UK leg at the O2, London on the 13^th and 14^th of May. Tickets are still available but going fast! 

7. Billie Eilish 

The Hit Me Hard and Soft tour is currently working its way around Australia and Europe, with its sights set on the UK in the summer. Two of Eilish’s seven Grammy nominations this year are thanks to this album, with three going to its big hit, ‘Birds of a Feather’. Eilish will spend a week performing in London this July before moving on to four shows in Manchester, in addition to concerts in Glasgow and Dublin. 

8. Oasis 

When the Gallagher brothers announced their tour last year, the UK absolutely erupted. There are a whopping seven concerts in London for the Oasis Live ’25 tour throughout the summer, not to mention shows in Manchester, Cardiff and other parts of the UK before it moves on to the rest of the world. 

9. Coldplay 

Boasting kinetic dance floors, compostable LED wristbands, discounts for low-carbon travel, and a 59% reduction in CO2e emissions from their previous world tour, Coldplay bring The Music of The Spheres to the UK in August. Starting with shows in Hull before a huge stint in London, spanning from August 22^nd – September 8^th, expect a few more ticket sales to add to the 10 million the tour’s already shifted.

 10. Linkin Park 

The From Zero World Tour kicked off in September 2024, and served as a call to arms for Linkin Park fans worldwide as the band returned after a seven-year hiatus. From Zero is their eighth studio album, their first new release after the tragic death of singer Chester Bennington in 2017. Linkin Park will be performing in the UK for one night only, at Wembley Stadium on 28^th June.
