Multi-GRAMMY and BRIT Award-winning rock giants Kings of Leon are officially returning to the UK in 2026 — and they’re bringing a trio of huge summer shows with them. The band will headline Glasgow, Manchester, and Leeds next July as part of their newly announced UK tour dates.

A Legacy of Festival Dominance

Recognised as one of the most influential alternative rock bands of the past two decades, Kings of Leon have secured their place among the modern greats. Over their 20-year career, they’ve headlined some of the world’s most iconic festivals, including:

  • Coachella

  • Glastonbury

  • Roskilde

  • Multiple Lollapalooza dates across Berlin, São Paulo, Chicago, and Santiago

Their live legacy continues to grow — just last year, the band reclaimed their all-time attendance record with a fifth sold-out night at London’s legendary Hyde Park.

Fans heading to next year’s UK dates can expect a career-spanning setlist, from early classics to their latest material.

Nine Albums, Millions of Sales, and a New Era

  • Youth & Young Manhood (2003)
