Snow Patrol Announce UK / Ireland 2026 Dates 

With next year marking the 20th anniversary of Snow Patrol’s seminal Eyes Open album, the Northern Irish alt-rock band has announced a run of UK and Ireland shows including special gigs at Edinburgh Castle and London’s Crystal Palace Park.  

“We’re really looking forward to heading back out across the UK & Ireland next summer! We’re headlining In It Together festival in Port Talbot and Splendour festival in Nottingham as well as playing a run of our own shows. And we’re very excited about it all,” the band posted on Instagram today.

The Crystal Palace Park show will feature Snow Patrol joined by Rag ‘N’ Bone Man and Nieve Ella. The London park, which is included on the Register of Historic Parks and Gardens, includes Crystal Palace Bowl, which has a capacity of up to 15,000 people and has hosted concerts by iconic acts such as Pink Floyd, Bob Marley, Elton John and Beach Boys.

“We’re excited to play Crystal Palace Park next summer. It’ll be our first outdoor London show for a long while. It’s going to be a great day with a fantastic line up of bands and solo artists,” Gary Lightbody from Snow Patrol said in a statement. 

The Edinburgh Castle show features support from Katie Gregson-MacLeod.
