Kings of Leon announce new UK tour in 2026
Kings of Leon have announced three huge gigs set to take place in the UK in the summer of 2026.
The American rock band are set to take to stages in Glasgow, Manchester, and Leeds for three dates in July next year, marking their first live appearances since the release of their latest EP#2.
The brothers Caleb, Nathan, and Jared Followill, along with their cousin Matthew Followill, released their first new standalone music in some four years last week, in the form of the four tracks that make up their new EP.
Prior to this, the band had released a few recent tracks with American singer Zach Bryan, whom they supported in July for three nights performing at the MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, New Jersey.
As part of this, Caleb Followill joined Bryan and special guest Bruce Springsteen on the final night to perform a special cover of the latter’s seismic hit, ‘Atlantic City’.
As far as the new Kings of Leon UK dates, however, it comes after the band were forced to cancel their planned run of gigs in the country in May this year, after Caleb got into a “freak accident” where he broke his foot and was unable to tour for eight months.
With the injury now behind him, the band will be supported by The Snuts in Leeds and Manchester, as well as The Lathums and The Royston Club in Glasgow.
Tickets for Kings of Leon’s summer 2026 UK dates will go on general sale from November 21st at 9am local time.
Kings of Leon UK summer 2026 dates:
July
- 3 – Bellahouston Park, Glasgow
- 4 – Co-op Live, Manchester
- 6 – First Direct Arena, Leeds
