Lewis Capaldi has announced his biggest outdoor headline shows yet for next year.
The announcement comes after the singer’s comeback, and the shows will see him play his first tour dates in two years at arenas and festivals around the UK allowing him to debut new music.
He will play eight shows, which will start June 24 next year at Dublin’s Marlay Park.
From there, he will play at Thomond Park in Limerick June 26, TK Maxx Presents Live at Powderham in Exeter June 28, and the Blackweir Fields in Cardiff June 30.
The next month, he will play the new Roundhay Festival in Leeds July 4, and then headline London’s BST Hyde Park July 11.
The shows will then wrap up August 20 at the Belfast Vital, with the last show being on August 22 in Manchester at Wythenshawe Park.
Lewis Capaldi first broke through the music industry in 2017 with his independently released single ‘Bruises’, which quickly became a hit and became the fastest ever song by an unsigned artist to reach 25 million plays on Spotify.
In 2018, he released the EP ‘Breach’, which featured ‘Someone You Loved’, and the song gained him international fame.
His debut album, ‘Divinely Uninspired to a Hellish Extent’, was released in May 2019 and included songs like ‘Hold Me While You Wait’, and ‘Someone You Loved’. The album became one of the best-selling records in the UK that year, spending several weeks at the top of the charts.
In 2023, he released his second album, ‘Broken by Desire to Be Heavenly Sent‘, which included chart-topping single ‘Wish You The Best’.
The same year, he also revealed that he had Tourette syndrome and struggled with anxiety, which affected his live performances, including a widely discussed set at Glastonbury.
He chose to take a break from touring to focus on his mental and physical health.
Lewis Capaldi’s comeback was hinted at by his close friend Yungblud, who teased that Lewis was “sounding great”, and back working on new music.
The pair have bonded over their shared experiences with mental health struggles, offering support to one another away from the spotlight.
This year, Lewis Capaldi made a comeback, returning to live shows, and surprising fans with appearances at charity events such as a benefit gig in Edinburgh for the Campaign Against Living Miserably (CALM), which works in suicide prevention.
When Lewis Capaldi stepped out for his surprise set at Glastonbury 2025, the stage erupted. Fans who remembered his emotional exit, were excited to see him smiling.
He told the crowd, “second time’s a charm… I just wanted to finish what I couldn’t finish the first time around.”
He has also released new music such as his single ‘Survive’ and has announced plans to headline major UK festivals next year.
His current run of UK arena shows started on September 7 in Sheffield, and will continue tomorrow with the first of his three shows at London’s O2 Arena, with the tour concluding with two nights in Dublin.
