In this blog we take you through some of the confirmed and rumoured tours for next year including some of the biggest names in the industry!

Billy Joel

The first big name confirmed for a tour in 2026 is Billy Joel. The Piano Man is back once again with rescheduled shows for Anfield, Liverpool and Scottish Gas Murrayfield, Edinburgh in 2026. Widely regarded as one of the world’s best artists, Billy Joel has sold over 160 million records worldwide!

Joel has hits including ‘Piano Man’, ‘Uptown Girl’ and ‘We Didn’t Start The Fire’ which he received numerous awards for throughout his career. The American songwriter is one of the best to grace the industry and, even at 75 years old, will be certain to put on a spectacular show!

Bad Bunny

Grammy Award winner, Bad Bunny has confirmed he will perform at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th June 2026. The Puerto Rican superstar will marking his first-ever UK stadium dates as part of his DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS World Tour. Known for blending reggaetón, trap, and traditional Latin rhythms, Bad Bunny is set to deliver show-stopping performances in Spanish to a massive London audience.

Metallica

Metallica is another legendary act confirmed to tour in 2026. The iconic American heavy metal band formed in the early 1980s and gained global recognition with powerful anthems like ‘Enter Sandman’ and ‘Master of Puppets’. Known for their blistering guitar riffs and electrifying live shows, Metallica has maintained a massive global following for over four decades.

Bruce Springsteen

Another man still going strong in 2025 is Bruce Springsteen. The 75 year old is touring the UK in 2025 and having just announced he will be releasing unheard music, it’s hard to imagine that we won’t see The Boss once more in 2026. Springsteen is regarded as one of the best musicians of his time with world famous songs such as ‘Born To Run’, ‘Dancing In The Dark’ and ‘Born In The USA’.

Springsteen will almost certainly be touring again in 2026 with his superfans expected to follow him all over the world as usual, but where will he decide to go?

Jason Derulo

Jason Derulo is confirmed to be touring the UK at the start of 2026 with his brand-new arena tour, The Last Dance. Known for hits like “Talk Dirty,” “Ridin’ Solo,” and “Savage Love,” the American popstar will bring his high-energy show to cities including Glasgow, Birmingham, London, Cardiff, and Manchester between 29th January and 7th February. Following the success of his Nu King tour, fans can expect a feel-good, dance-filled performance packed with crowd favourites.

Olivia Rodrigo

Another talent rumoured to be touring in 2026 is Olivia Rodrigo. The 22 year old burst onto the scene in 2021 with her single ‘Drivers License’ and from there she has released hit after hit. Rodrigo actually performed with Billy Joel in 2022 as a surprise guest singing ‘Deja Vu’ and ‘Uptown Girl’.

This year the American popstar will be partaking in her GUTS World Tour with fans hoping the tour will be extended into 2026. Rodrigo will perform in London and Manchester this summer before journeying to the rest of the world. Will we see her take over the globe next year as well?

Take That

Another iconic act rumoured to be hitting the road in 2026 is Take That. The beloved British pop group originally formed in the early 1990s and quickly rose to fame with chart-topping hits like ‘Back for Good’ and ‘Relight My Fire’. Over the years, the band has continued to evolve, with a new album rumoured to be released in 2026, following up from their 2023 album, This Life. 

After a successful UK and Ireland tour in 2024, fans are already speculating about what’s next for Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen. With stadium shows, special guests, and dazzling production often part of their performances, a 2026 tour could be another spectacular celebration of their legacy. Could Take That be preparing to thrill audiences once again across Europe and beyond?

Taylor Swift

Taylor Swift’s 2023 Eras Tour won accolades and broke records for fun with 10.1 million people attending the concerts from 2023-2024! There were 149 concerts across the tour as fans were treated to astonishing 3-hour long performances, fabulous costume changes and incredible atmospheres as part of the celebration of Swift’s illustrious music career!

In 2023, on the first day of US presale alone, 2.1 million tickets were sold as the pop star sold out venues across the country. Tickets were compared to gold dust with fans flocking to ticket websites in order to try and get their hands on the much-envied shows.

There are rumours that Swift could be back in 2026 and if she is, will she break even more records? Last time she was in the UK, Swift performed at Anfield, Wembley Stadium and Murrayfield Stadium with Engage offering some excellent hospitality packages for her historic shows. Could we see even more UK venues if she does tour in 2026?

With confirmed and rumoured shows for 2026, who would you like to see on tour next year? We are certainly hopeful of some spectacular tours coming to the UK in a year’s time! In 2025, the likes of Oasis, Coldplay and Beyonce will be in the UK this summer with some incredible hospitality on offer.
