The Scottish singer-songwriter has scheduled a series of outdoor shows across the UK and Ireland for summer 2026.
He'll kick things off in Ireland, playing Dublin's Marlay Park on June 24 and Limerick's Thomond Park on June 26. From there, he'll head to England to top the bill at the Powderham Presents series at Powderham Castle, Exeter on June 27 and 28, followed by two dates in Wales at Cardiff's Blackweir Live on June 30 and July 1.
He'll also headline the inaugural Roundhay Festival in Leeds on July 4, and London's BST Hyde Park on July 11, before returning to the stage the following month for the Belfast Vital series on August 20, and Manchester's Wythenshawe Park on August 22.
The new shows will mark the two-time BRIT Award-winner's biggest outdoor shows to date. Tickets go on general sale at 9am on Friday (September 19) - Compare and buy tickets here.
The 28-year-old is currently amid his autumn UK and Ireland arena tour, which continues with a third and final three performance at The O2 in London tonight (September 18). He's also set to play shows in Australia and New Zealand this November and December, marking his first headlining dates in the region in over five years. Tickets are on sale now.
Capaldi returned in June with his single Survive, released the same day he delivered a surprise comeback set on Glastonbury's Pyramid Stage, completing the performance he had to cut short in 2023 due to tics caused by Tourette's.
Despite the new material, a follow-up to his 2023 sophomore album, 'Broken by Desire to Be Heavenly Sent', is yet to be announced.
System Of A Down
The Armenian-American band will be joined by Queens Of The Stone Age for UK and European stadium concerts next year.
They'll visit Stockholm, Paris, Milan, Berlin, Dusseldorf and Warsaw between June 29 and July 18, alongside two dates at London's Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on July 13 and 15.
American sludge metal band Acid Bath will open the shows, with tickets on general sale at 12pm local time on Friday (September 19) - Compare and buy tickets here.
Earlier this summer, System of a Down played two shows each in East Rutherford with Korn, Chicago with Avenged Sevenfold, and Toronto with Deftones.
The Grammy-winning band's last full-length album, 'Hypnotize', came out in 2005, though they released two tracks, Protect The Land and Genocidal Humanoid, via Bandcamp in 2020 to support the Armenia Fund.
Since then, the members have been focused on individual projects. Frontman Serj Tankian dropped his solo EP 'Foundations' in September 2024 and will follow it up with a full-length album, 'Covers, Collaborations & Collages', due out October 24. He's already previewed it with the singles I'm Counting On You, A Seed, and Electric Dreams.
Meanwhile, guitarist Daron Malakian's band Scars On Broadway released their latest album, 'Addicted To The Violence', in July.
