Hottest Tickets: Your Guide To The Biggest Shows in June 2026
Friday, 05 June 2026
Written by Stereoboard
Hi there! Welcome once again to Stereoboard’s monthly gig guide, where we pull together the movers and shakers on the live scene for a one-stop guide to all things noisy, fun and sun-dappled over the coming weeks. Head below for generational pop runs, teen icons and a star with real staying power who’s made it their business to dominate our Hottest 100 Tickets list for weeks and weeks and weeks.
Who are June’s headline acts?
Got a pen and paper? This could take a while. It’s probably prudent to start with a certain Harry Styles, who will play 12 nights at Wembley Stadium in London this month. Going beyond simply being a pop star doing pop star things, this is the sort of historic undertaking that could be spoken about in hushed tones for decades to come, with the small matter of 30 shows at New York’s Madison Square Garden to come later in the summer.
Adding arty gloss to his plans, meanwhile, is a stint curating the always fascinating Meltdown Festival at London’s Southbank Centre between June 11 and 21. Following in the footsteps of everyone from David Bowie and Patti Smith to Little Simz, who handled last year’s festivities, Styles will perform at the Royal Festival Hall on June 16 as well as putting on sets from Warpaint, Stephen Fretwell, Ninajirachi, Kamasi Washington, Beverly Glenn-Copeland, Bar Italia, Orlando Weeks and more.
Bad Bunny also knows a thing or two about making history, what with his incredible Coachella set still fresh in the memory, and Benito will attempt to run back the magic at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium. For the rockers, Metallica, Foo Fighters and My Chemical Romance will entertain hundreds of thousands of punters with stadium runs of their own, leaving the inevitable comedown in the capable hands of Robert Smith and The Cure, who’ll get miserable in the sunshine with outdoor shows in Cardiff, Dublin and Belfast towards the end of the month.
Who’s ruling the Hottest 100 Tickets list?
Do you really need to ask at this point? Just like last month, Olivia Dean is still very much top of the pops around here, with two shows at London’s O2 Arena and two massive, upgraded dates at Dublin’s Marlay Park currently driving interest on our chart, which determines its standings by comparing face value ticket prices from more than 50 agents and resellers over a 24 hour period.
Also performing nicely are Take That, who are pulling down rave reviews for their revival of The Circus, plus BTS and Bruno Mars, who’ll land at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium and Wembley Stadium respectively in the not too distant future. For a regular heads up on this kind of info, keep your eyes peeled every Thursday for our Top Tickets This Week rundown and sign up for our weekly newsletter, which will drop the latest tour news directly into your inbox once a week.
Who’s on the rise?
Gatecrashing the very upper echelons of this month’s chart are KATSEYE, who added extra dates to their WILDWORLD Tour before tickets even went live due to eye-watering pre-sale demand. The girl group, whose new EP ‘Wild’ is expected in August, will sandwich two nights at London’s O2 Arena in September with stops in Dublin and Manchester before hitting mainland Europe and North America throughout the autumn.
Also doing numbers of late is teenage sensation Freya Skye, whose Stars Align Tour will take her to Dublin, Manchester, Wolverhampton, Leeds, Glasgow, Cardiff and London from October 25 to November 9 off the back of her ‘Stardust’ EP and roles across Disney’s Zombies movies and the TV show Wizards Beyond Waverly Place.
