Kasabian announce Winter 2026 Nothing Better Than This UK Arena Tour, including Scotland date at OVO Hydro in Glasgow

Fresh off the back of a monumental sold-out headline date at London’s Finsbury Park last weekend to a crowd of 45,000, Kasabian have announced a run of UK arena tour dates in December 2026.

Known for their high-energy, raucous live shows the band kick off the five date arena tour at the Utilita Arena in Birmingham on Friday December 11th, followed by dates at the OVO Hydro in Glasgow, Utilita Arena in Cardiff, The O2 in London and conclude with a date at Manchester’s Co-op Live on Saturday December 19th. The band will be joined by very special guests The Vaccines. Artist pre-sale tickets for the run will go on sale Wednesday July 15th at 9:00 BST with general sale on Friday July 17th at 9:00 BST.

Kasabian play the following UK headline arena dates:

December
Fri 11th Birmingham, Utilita Arena
Sun 13th Glasgow, OVO Hydro
Wed 16th Cardiff, Utilita Arena
Fri 18th London, The O2
Sat 19th Manchester, Co-op Live

The band will also play a string of festivals across the UK and Europe this summer, including headlining the very first main stage slot at Leeds Festival, Boardmasters, Victorious Festival, Mad Cool Festival, and more.

The band’s 9th studio album, with their last 7 all going straight in at #1 in the UK Official Album Chart, Act III was produced by Serge Pizzorno and Mark Ralph at The Sergery and Club Ralph. Draped in Serge’s instantly recognisable hazy vocals, the album is 10 tracks of guitar-driven, psyche-infused pop and 3 interludes. Packed to the brim with hooks and a strong dose of swagger, the album cements Kasabian as one of the UK’s most essential bands of the 21st century. A culmination not just of the last six years with Serge at the helm, but Kasabian’s entire career, the album looks forward while taking aspects from the band’s earliest days with a visceral raw energy.

Kasabian are: Serge Pizzorno, Chris Edwards, Ian Matthews and Tim Carter.
