Lily Allen has announced she will hit the road again for the first time since 2019 with a series of live shows across the UK.
The British singer and multi-faceted icon released her fifth album ‘West End Girl’ last week to unanimous praise from both critics and fans. As well as being musically innovative and refereshing, the album caused a stir as a no-holds-barred account of the breakdown of her very public marriage to Stranger Things star David Harbour following his infidelities.
The tour marks an end to Allen’s seven-year hiatus from music, which had previously only been broken for guest appearances at Glastonbury. She famously joined Olivia Rodrigo on the Pyramid Stage in 2022 to perform a duet version of her 2008 track ‘Fuck You’ in protest of the over turning of Roe v. Wade, and again in 2025 to support British DJ ShyGirl by performing their 2018 collaboration ‘Roll The Dice.’
In the meantime, Allen has dabbled in a number of different career avenues, from podcasting with fellow noughties it-girl Miquita Oliver to trying her hand at acting alongside Freema Agyeman in the sun-drenched Sky drama Dreamland.
For her return to music, Allen has specifically chosen to perform in some of the UK’s most renowned theatre venues in order to showcase the album’s depth of storytelling in an intimate setting.
Allen will be performing the 14-track album in full at the following dates in 2026:
Glasgow, Royal Concert Hall (March 2)
Liverpool, Philharmonic Hall (3)
Birmingham, Symphony Hall (5)
Sheffield, City Hall (7)
Newcastle, City Hall (8)
Manchester Aviva Studios, The Hall (10/11)
Nottingham, Royal Concert Hall (14)
Cambridge, Corn Exchange (15)
Bristol, Beacon (17)
Cardiff, New Theatre (18)
London, Palladium (20/21)
Tickets for the tour will go on sale on Friday, November 7 at 10am.
