Take That mania swept the UK as fans rushed to secure tickets for the band’s highly anticipated Circus Live Tour in summer 2026. Following last week’s headline-grabbing announcement of their return, overwhelming demand has led to the addition of six brand-new stadium shows in Southampton, Coventry, Glasgow, Manchester, and London.
The band will now play 17 massive stadium dates across the UK and Ireland, including four nights at Manchester’s Etihad Stadium, three at Coventry Building Society Arena, and three at London Stadium.
First staged in 2009, The Circus Live became the fastest-selling UK tour in history, with over 600,000 tickets sold in under five hours and more than one million fans attending across the UK and Ireland. Now, over 17 years later, Take That are set to revive the groundbreaking live production — promising a show “bigger and bolder than ever.”
The tour begins 29 May at St Mary’s Stadium in Southampton, before heading to major cities including Coventry, Sunderland, Glasgow, Cardiff, and Manchester. The band will perform three nights at London Stadium on 26–27 June, before closing with a final show at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium on 4 July.
Special guests include The Script and Belinda Carlisle on all UK dates, with OneRepublic joining in Dublin.
