Lewis Capaldi has announced a new UK and Ireland tour for this September – see the full list of dates below.
The singer-songwriter made a triumphant and redemptive return to the stage at Glastonbury 2025 on Friday (June 27) as an unannounced performer on the Pyramid Stage. He declared during the set that “I’m fucking back, baby!”, completing the show that he was unable to in 2023.
Now, Capaldi has consolidated his comeback with news of an arena tour to take place later in the year, including two huge shows at London’s The O2.
Announcing the shows, he wrote on social media: “About time I got back to work…hope to see you out there.”
Capaldi kicks off in Sheffield’s Utilita Arena on September 7, followed by Aberdeen and Glasgow, before the London shows on September 17 and 18. He then hits Manchester, Birmingham, Nottingham and Cardiff, before finishing up at Dublin’s 3 Arena on September 29.
Tickets go on pre-sale on July 8 at 9am and the general sale begins at the same time on July 10 – you will be able to get yours here.

Capaldi preceded his Glastonbury return with the new single ‘Survive’ last week, his first new material since 2023. The moving track sees the singer addressing his mental health struggles: “Most nights, I fear that I’m not enough / I’ve had my share of Monday mornings when I can’t get up / But when hope is lost and I come undone / I swear to God, I’ll survive / If it kills me to / I’m gonna get up and try / If it’s the last thing I do,” he sings.
Fans lauded his emotional return, with one writing: “This is strength, resilience, and perseverance personified. Two years ago, I watched live coverage as Lewis Capaldi was floored by Tourettes. He takes two years to rest, recover, and heal, showing those struggling with mental health issues that there is always a way back.”
Cardi B is feeling confident about the New York Knicks' chances in the 2026 NBA Finals. While attending Game 3 against the San Antonio Spurs on Monday night, the rapper gave a funny answer when Entertainment Tonight asked what a Knicks championship would mean for New York City.
“It’s gonna mean the rats will disappear, trees will start growing, potholes will be filled,” she joked while speaking with the outlet. “Rains of glitter coming down, the Statue of Liberty is going to finally walk.”
“It’s going to mean everything,” she continued. “Crimes will be solved!”
Naturally, the Bronx star wrapped up her comments by saying, “Go Knicks!”
The New York squad ultimately fell 115 to 111 on Monday evening, though they still hold a 2 to 1 advantage in the series. Two more victories would secure the franchise’s first NBA title since 1973. The Knicks also have not reached the Finals since 1999. Game 4 is scheduled for Wednesday night at Madison Square Garden.
Cardi has long been a devoted Knicks supporter and has been spotted courtside at several games over the years. During Game 3, she entertained fans with a halftime performance before taking in the action from courtside alongside her 4 year old son, Wave.
She has never been shy about celebrating her love for New York City. Earlier this year, Cardi joined Mayor Zohran Mamdani to help introduce a music competition tied to his 2 K program, which provides free childcare for New Yorkers. “Can you believe that?! We have a 34 year old mayor! I feel like I’m a kid, and you’re, like, running New York!” she said to the mayor in a video promoting the contest.
