The tour also includes a show at Blackweir Fields in Cardiff, Wales, operated by Cardiff-based Depot Live (the live-events arm of Cardiff music venue, Depot), and UK promoters Cuffe and Taylor (part of Live Nation).

Depot Live founder Nick Saunders commented, “What a way to announce Blackweir is back for 2026 than to reveal Lewis Capaldi as our first headliner.

Both he and his music is loved across the generations and we expect tickets to fly out so what will truly be an unforgettable night in our beloved city.”

The shows also include a headline set at British Summer Time Hyde Park in London, July 11, which will mark Capaldi’s biggest UK festival headline show to date, topping his surprise 2025 Glastonbury performance in terms of size of crowd.

Capaldi will also headline the brand-new festival by BST Hyde Park promoter AEG Presents: Roundhay Festival in Leeds, July 4. Jim King, CEO of AEG Presents UK and European Festivals, said, “We’re proud to announce Lewis Capaldi as the first ever Roundhay Festival headliner in 2026, a true milestone moment. His heartfelt, powerful voice makes him the perfect artist to launch this new chapter, and his much-awaited comeback will be unforgettable.”
