Music industry disruptor and global force, YUNGBLUD, has announced dates for a UK and Ireland arena tour in April 2026.
The Idols UK & Ireland Tour will see the artist play a series of mammoth arena shows, starting off at Dublin’s 3Arena and culminating at Manchester’s AO Arena. The tour, marking Yungblud’s first UK appearance following this summer’s Bludfest, will also include a stop at The O2 in London, and will include his biggest ever UK headline shows outside of Bludfest.
Taking to social media to reveal details of the tour, Yungblud posted, I’m so excited to announce our biggest shows yet.
Support for the Idols UK & Ireland Tour comes from Mexico via Monterrey’s The Warning.
The Idols UK &+ Ireland Tour dates are as follows:
15.04.26 Dublin, 3Arena
17.04.26 Leeds, First Direct Arena

We were given a taster of ‘Idols’, the new album by Yungblud with the emotionally driven and anthemic, Zombie, whose powerful video stars Academy Award-nominated Florence Pugh as an NHS healthcare worker coping under immense emotional and physical strain. NME described the single as “soaring and poignant” while the London Standard recently called Yungblud a “genuine Gen Z rock phenomenon”.
Yungblud expressed his gratitude to the NHS by giving 1,000 healthcare professionals free tickets to this year’s Bludfest.
