Olivia Dean, Yungblud, and Turnstile, live: All the London shows the 2026 Grammy Winners are doing — and where to get tickets
Get your gig on
A night of great music, great outfits, and even greater memes, the 2026 Grammy Awards happened in LA last night, with plenty of beautiful speeches, worthy winners, and fantastic style statements.
If all the reminders of brilliant artists and bangers that have blessed our ears this year have whetted your appetite for seeing some live music, you’re not alone. If the combination of winning songs and January payday has sparked the search for a gig or two to hit, here are all the Grammy winners taking to London soon.
Olivia Dean, 29th April-12th June, London O2
Best new artist of the year Olivia Dean is heading on her semi-sold-out The Art of Loving tour across the UK in 2026. The bad news is that all her London O2 dates are currently sold out, but the good news is that there are a number of tickets still going for other UK and Europe dates, plus re-sales if you're willing to risk it.
Yungblud, April 3rd, HERE at Outernet, 24th April, London O2
If you fancy a smaller gig, Yungblud is heading to the nice and local (well, central) HERE at Outernet, over on Denmark Street in London. He is also heading to the O2 Arena in London on April 24th, as well as another small gig at Pryzm, Kingston, in Kingston Upon Thames on April 4th.

Cynthia Erivo - Dracula, Noël Coward Theatre 7th Feb-30th May
Okay, so whilst this isn't technically a gig per se, you could argue it's one better. Wicked star Cynthia Erivo is headlining a new production of Dracula in London's West End, meaning you'll get to see the triple threat tread the boards. Whilst it's not a musical, it's still going to be pretty spectacular – a one-woman show with Cynthia Erivo, playing all 23 roles.

Ariana Grande, 15th August, London O2
In true 2016 style, Ariana Grande is back in the UK on her The Eternal Sunshine tour. Following her cinematic star as Glinda in Wicked, the pop princess is back, and you'd better catch her while you can, as it looks as though this is the last we'll be seeing her on a music tour for a while...

Tame Impala, 7th May, London O2
Everyone's favourite Aussie band, Tame Impala, is heading to the UK to kick off summer in style. Heading to London's O2 arena as part of their Deadbeat tour, the psychedelic music group will be bringing some of its beloved anthems, including The Less I Know the Better and Let It Happen. And a fun fact for your Monday, Kevin Parker (the guy behind the band) experiences synesthesia, a neurological condition where senses blend, causing him to see colours with music, which influences the band's sound.
