The biggest UK tours & live shows on sale this week
From open-air spectacles to intimate headline runs, here are some of this week’s standout ticket releases.
DURAN DURAN
When: Thursday 15th - Saturday 24th October 2026 (multiple UK dates)
Global music icons Duran Duran have announced their first full UK arena tour in three years, taking place this October.
Joining them on the run will be UK-based psychedelic five-piece Pigeon. The tour opens in Glasgow before heading to Belfast, Birmingham, Liverpool and Leeds.
With over 100 million records sold and a catalogue packed with enduring hits that still fill floors, "Rio", "Hungry Like the Wolf", "Girls on Film", "Ordinary World", few bands have stayed this vital this long. Duran Duran remain one of pop's most genuinely thrilling live acts.
The October run lands in a big year for the band, with euphoric new single "Free To Love" featuring Nile Rodgers already building momentum and a BST Hyde Park headline slot on the horizon. Their sixteenth studio album, the Halloween-themed Danse Macabre (2023), became their 10th UK Top 5 record, proving that Duran Duran are not coasting on nostalgia.
CHRISTINA AGUILERA
When: Friday 21st August 2026 (Royal Sandringham Estate, King's Lynn)
Pop powerhouse Christina Aguilera heads to the Royal Sandringham Estate in Norfolk for her only UK performance of 2026, headlining HeritageLive Festival 2026.
The seven-time GRAMMY Award winner has sold over 75 million records worldwide, topped the Billboard Hot 100 across three consecutive decades, and holds the distinction of being the only artist under 30 featured in Rolling Stone's 100 Greatest Singers of All Time. From the raw emotional power of "Beautiful" and "Hurt" to the searing attitude of "Fighter" and "Dirrty", her body of work is one of the defining pop catalogues of the last 25 years.
Joining her are Craig David Presents TS5, Blue and rising alt-pop star Ruby Roberts, making this one of the standout nights of the summer.
JANET JACKSON
When: Wednesday 19th August 2026 (Royal Sandringham Estate, King's Lynn)
Global music icon Janet Jackson will headline an exclusive UK show at Royal Sandringham Estate in Norfolk as part of HeritageLive Festival 2026.
The five-time GRAMMY Award-winning Rock & Roll Hall of Fame inductee returns to the UK in August 2026 for a huge outdoor concert featuring special guests Wyclef Jean and Soul II Soul.
With over 180 million records sold worldwide, Janet Jackson remains one of pop and R&B's most influential artists. "Together Again", "Nasty", "That's The Way Love Goes", "All For You". The hits barely need introduction. Few catalogues hit quite as hard.
Few artists command a stage the way Janet Jackson does. This is a rare chance to see one of pop and R&B's true legends at one of the UK's most beautiful outdoor settings.
GOAT
When: Monday 26th - Friday 30th April 2027 (multiple UK dates)
Swedish psych collective GOAT hit the UK in April 2027 for their biggest tour to date, culminating in a headline show at London's Royal Albert Hall.
The tour marks 15 years since GOAT released their debut album, World Music, and played their very first live show. A secretive collective who perform in occult, pagan costumes and masks, they lead a high-octane ritual built to expand the minds of everyone in the room. Their concerts are genuinely unlike anything else.
Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs Pigs join as support for the Cambridge and London shows. The Newcastle heavy outfit played their second-ever gig supporting GOAT back in 2012, and thirteen years on, they're back. Post-punk and free jazz force of nature Maruja bring their spiritual, uncategorisable live show to Manchester. Support for Bristol is yet to be announced.
Fifteen years in and there's still nothing quite like a GOAT show. Catch them while you can.
JULIA JACKLIN
When: Saturday 13th - Friday 19th February 2027 (multiple UK dates)
Acclaimed Australian singer-songwriter Julia Jacklin is heading out on a UK tour in early 2027. The run opens in Birmingham, taking in Manchester and Bristol before closing at London's Eventim Apollo.
Since her breakthrough debut Don't Let The Kids Win (2016), Jacklin has built a devoted following through intimate indie-folk songwriting that's as emotionally precise as it is quietly devastating. Crushing (2019) and PRE PLEASURE (2022) only sharpened that gift, cementing her as one of the most distinctive voices in contemporary indie music.
A captivating live performer whose songs resonate as deeply on stage as they do on record, Jacklin's UK dates look set to be among the most anticipated indie shows of early 2027.
