Lily Allen confirms huge UK and Ireland arena tour for June 2026

Lily Allen builds on the success of West End Girl with a major arena tour next June

Lily-Allen

Lily Allen has confirmed a full arena run for June 2026, building on the momentum of her recent album West End Girl and a resurgent year that has put her firmly back at the centre of British pop.

West End Girl, released earlier this year, marked a sharp creative shift. The record confronted the fallout of a relationship with blunt detail and a fearless emotional directness. It became one of the most talked about UK pop releases of 2025, fuelled by Allenโ€™s return to outspoken, incisive songwriting.

The tour announcement follows a huge few months for the artist. She has been developing her acting work after the success of Dreamland and How to Build a Girl, continued her run of sold-out live podcast events with Lennon as the duo built on the growth of Miss Me?, and has been filming a new television project slated for 2026. Earlier this autumn she also performed a series of intimate comeback shows in London, Brighton and Bristol, with each date selling out in minutes.

Before the arenas, Allen will complete a full theatre tour in March 2026, which has already sold out across all cities.

Her newly announced arena tour begins in Newcastle on 16th June, then moves through Glasgow, Manchester, Leeds, Nottingham and Cardiff. She will play Birminghamโ€™s BP Pulse Live on 26th June, before headlining The O2 in London on 27th June. The run closes with a one-off date in Dublinโ€™s 3Arena on 30th June.

Tickets go on sale at 10am on Thursday 27th November via primary ticketing outlets.
