Diljit Dosanjh is set to take the stage at London’s Wembley Stadium on September 12 for what will be the biggest European performance of his career.
The singer will lead a show at the legendary London venue, which can hold around 90,000 fans, making him the first Punjabi artist and the first Indian artist to headline Wembley Stadium. In 2025, Arijit Singh became the first Indian artist to headline a stadium concert in the U.K. when he performed at the nearby Tottenham Hotspur Stadium.
The Punjabi music icon revealed the news during his concert at Toronto’s Rogers Centre on Sunday, May 31. While sharing the announcement, he noted that he is now part of a select group of performers that includes Michael Jackson, Queen, and Prince, all of whom have headlined the famous stadium. Wembley is also scheduled to welcome major acts such as Harry Styles, My Chemical Romance, Bruno Mars, The Weeknd, and Bon Jovi in the months ahead.
Dosanjh’s most recent performance in London came in October 2024 when he sold out and headlined the city’s 20,000 seat O2 Arena.
Fans will be able to access tickets through an artist presale beginning June 10 at 10 a.m. BST. The general ticket sale is set to start on June 12 at 10 a.m. BST through Live Nation.
At present, Dosanjh is continuing his Aura world tour, with the North American leg having started in Vancouver in April. Since then, he has performed at several major arenas, including two headline dates at New York’s Madison Square Garden. The North American run will wrap up with back to back performances at San Francisco’s Chase Center on June 20 and 21.
In 2025, he released his 15th studio album Aura, and earlier this year he unveiled an updated version of “Senorita” alongside J Balvin. In May, he made his debut appearance at the Met Gala in New York, while in April he returned to The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon for a second appearance to promote his latest EP, The Call of the Panjab.
Faith No More appear to be hinting at a return to the stage in 2027.
The influential alt-metal band have remained mostly quiet over the past decade following the release of their reunion album ‘Sol Invictus’ in 2015. After its arrival, they played what would become their most recent live performances in 2016 and later called off several touring plans in the years that followed.
Now, however, they seem to be preparing fans for something new. The group recently shared an image of a concert crowd on social media with nothing more than the text “2027” placed across it.
No additional information accompanied the post, but it quickly sparked speculation among fans, many of whom believe a full scale tour announcement could be coming next year.
After wrapping up their 2016 run of shows, the band intended to return to the road in 2020. Those plans were ultimately abandoned because of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Further touring plans surfaced in 2021 as venues began reopening, but those dates were also cancelled before they could begin. Frontman Mike Patton later explained that mental health struggles were behind the decision and revealed he had been diagnosed with agoraphobia during the pandemic.
Until recently, a reunion seemed unlikely. Patton spoke about Faith No More’s lengthy break and said that he did not “see it as a sad thing”.
Speaking on the Kyle Meredith With… podcast and reflecting on whether he felt a “sense of closure” after the 2016 tour, the vocalist said: “I didn’t really think so at the time, but, yeah, maybe. I think that we all kind of felt it, but it was unspoken.”
“It’s funny: when you’ve been in a band or a musical situation for a period of time, you always, in the back of your head, you’re kind of thinking, ‘Well, maybe this is it.’ And I don’t mind that feeling,” he added. “I don’t see it as a sad thing. I see it as being present and being able to really appreciate it while it’s happening.”
Faith No More have never formally announced a breakup following the cancellation of their 2021 tour, although other members have suggested in recent years that the chances of touring again were uncertain.
Last year, guitarist Roddy Bottum discussed the band's future and admitted they were in a “really weird spot”. “I can’t really tell you what’s going on. I don’t know myself. I get different information from people… and I’m in the band,” he said.
Drummer Mike Bordin echoed similar thoughts last spring, saying that he and some of the other members were willing to perform again, but claimed Patton was “unwilling to do shows with us”.
In addition to leading Faith No More since 1989 after replacing original singer Chuck Mosley, Patton has also been involved with projects including Mr Bungle, Fantômas, and Tomahawk.
Tomahawk recently unveiled plans for their first tour in 13 years, with a series of US dates scheduled for this summer. The run begins in Nashville next month and will also see Patton and his bandmates reunite with longtime labelmates Melvins for the first time since 2003.
Patton has also recently launched his tour with Avett Brothers and teamed up with Jehnny Beth on the new single ‘Look At Me’.
