The Scottish singer-songwriter is topping the bill at the London concert series on Saturday July 11 and Sunday July 12. The massive outdoor gigs will form part of his UK and Ireland headline tour this summer. You can find any remaining tickets here.
Capaldi will also headline Leeds’ new Roundhay Festival on July 4, which is being launched by the team behind BST Hyde Park – tickets are available here.
Now, it’s been announced that Jacob Alon and Conan Gray will be joining Capaldi at both dates.
For Alon, the slot comes following their win of the prestigious BRITs Critics’ Choice Award. Alon’s debut album ‘In Limerence’ was nominated for the Mercury Prize last year. At the time NME spoke to them at the shortlist announcement, where they said the album “packs a punch”.
Meanwhile, Gray released his latest album ‘Wishbone’ last summer, which he told NME was inspired by the records he grew up listening to. “I think all the influences came together to make a very indescript sound, which is very me. My goal with the album from the beginning was to just make something so unbelievably you, even if you don’t really know exactly what that is. Just follow your gut.”
Capaldi returned in November last year with an EP, ‘Survive’, marking his first new music since his 2023 album ‘Broken By Desire to Be Heavenly Sent‘.
It followed his surprise set on the Pyramid Stage at this year’s Glastonbury – a particularly poignant slot as his break from performing live started after he was forced to cut his set on the same stage in 2023 short due to struggling with tics caused by Tourette’s.
In other news, Capaldi recently made a surprise appearance at a charity event alongside Matty Healy, and made a cameo in Taylor Swift’s ‘Opalite’ music video.
As well as BST Hyde Park and Roundhay Festival, Capaldi will be headlining two huge ‘In The Park’ summer 2026 shows in Liverpool and Newcastle, as well as a set at Sziget Festival.
