Voice of London

After a pause on live events due to the pandemic, artists are once again ready to perform. These are the hottest concerts coming to the UK next year.

Olivia Rodrigo – SOUR Tour

UK dates: July 2 – July 7

After her big hotshot debut to the music scene this year with 2 global hits, Drivers License and Good 4 u, this teen sensation is going on her first tour with her Grammy nominated album, SOUR. Despite the buzz around her album, she’s opted for smaller venues such as the Eventim Apollo in London so tickets went as soon as they came.

Maluma – Papi Juancho World Tour

UK dates: March 16

This Colombian superstar is finally coming to the UK. With his hits, talent and allure, the show will no doubt be anything less than electrifying. Unfortunately it’s only one date in the London O2 arena but tickets to see him perform his new album ‘Papi Juancho’ including his recent hit Hawái is available now.

Coldplay – Music Of The Spheres World Tour

UK dates: Aug. 12 – Aug. 23

A Coldplay concert is a must have on your bucket list as they never fail to put on a show with their insane production, energy and numerous hits. Lead singer, Chris Martin stated they’re coming to the UK next year with their #1 album as part of their “environmentally sustainable” world tour. All performances will be entirely powered by renewable energy so this means solar panels at every location, a kinetic stadium floor and fan powered kinetic bikes. It’ll definitely be one for the books.

Billie Eilish – Happier Than Ever, The World Tour

UK dates: June 3 – June 26

Grammy awards, a Bond soundtrack and even Oscars buzz. At only 19years old, she is the most critically acclaimed star of the new decade and she is bringing her new album on Tour. Her down tempo and electro pop songs have made her a force in the industry with tickets selling out so fast, extra dates had to be added!

Ed Sheeran – (+ – = ÷ x) TOUR

UK dates: June 9 – July 1

With four UK #1 singles this year alone including Bad Habits and Shivers as well as a #1 album, the biggest British male popstar of the 2000s is returning to tour next year with things kicking off in Manchester. And tickets are selling out QUICK. His tickets to his four Wembley shows sold out so fast, he added another two which are currently low in availability so be sure to grab your tickets immediately. Ed informed CapitalFM recently that not only is he performing his new album ‘Equals’, he’ll also be performing all the hits from his previous albums.

Stormzy Tour

UK dates: March 15 – April 4

After having to reschedule multiple times, Stormzy is back to perform his 2019 smash album ‘Heavy is the head’ for fans all over the UK. As one of the biggest grime artists in the world who’s headlined festivals such as Glastonbury and Reading , we can expect him to set the stage on fire with an energetic and accelerating performance.
