Lily Allen announces 2026 UK arena
British singer-songwriter Lily Allen has announced a UK and Ireland arena tour.
Earlier this month, Allen announced that she will embark on a UK tour, which will take place in theatres, kicking off at Glasgow Royal Concert Hall. It sold out in the space of minutes.
The ‘Ruminanting’ singer has also been confirmed as one of the headliners for the Mighty Hoopla festival next year, alongside Scissor Sisters, Jessie J, and Liberty.
Now, she has announced nine new shows in June 2026, leaving the theatres behind for sizeable arenas. She will begin at Newcastle’s Utilita Arena on June 16th, before stopping in Glasgow, Manchester, and Leeds.
On June 23rd, she will take to Nottingham’s Motorpoint Arena, before a show in Cardiff and Birmingham will take her to her huge London show on June 27th at The O2. She will finish triumphantly at the 3Arena in Dublin.
As is the case with her theatre run, Allen will play her latest release, West End GIrl, in its entirety, in the order the songs appear on the record.
In a recent interview, Allen shared that the album discusses several specific moments in her relationship with Stranger Things actor David Harbour, but is not mean-spirited. She added, “At the time, I was really trying to process things and that’s great in terms of the album, but I don’t feel confused or angry now. I don’t need revenge.”
The star has also just been confirmed to appear on the late-night talk show Saturday Night Live on December 13th.
Tickets will go on sale on November 27th at 10am. See the newly announced list of tour dates below.
