The GRAMMY-nominated and BRIT-award-winning band Bastille closed their FROM ALL SIDES tour at London’s O2 Arena, delivering a show that was both emotionally layered and introspective, and an anthemic, confetti-fueled party. As one of the UK's most successful modern bands, Bastille - frontman Dan Smith, keyboardist Kyle Simmons, bassist Will Farquarson, and drummer Chris "Woody" Wood - have perfected the art of "dance through the pain" music: crafting melancholic, deeply thoughtful lyrics wrapped in an upbeat, party-pop sound.

In the age of short attention spans and clout-chasing, a controversial rivalry is perfect social media fodder and a masterclass in modern marketing. The good-natured ribbing between pop titans Busted and McFly however, pre-dates twitter spats and TikTok trends. The jestful tribalism of the early 2000's saw two fan bases, that if they were a Venn diagram, would be almost indistinguishable from a circle.

Japanese rock giants ONE OK ROCK made their long-awaited debut at London’s O2 Arena for one night only with an emotionally charged performance, showcasing their evolution into a powerful arena rock force. After two decades in the global rock scene, the outfit leaned heavily into their legacy, balancing longtime favourites with hard-hitting new material from their latest album DETOX, for a night of both nostalgia and reaffirmation of their present-day power.

In a world where pop music is a platform for self-expression and spectacle, Katy Perry transformed the stage into a playground of colour, emotion, and unapologetic fun. On the second London stop of her Lifetimes Tour, the pop powerhouse delivered a night of high-flying theatrics, shimmering visuals, and stadium-sized singalongs, all held together by her trademark mix of wit and warmth.

Tom Grennan lit up the O2 Arena with an unforgettable performance that blended heartfelt warmth with undeniable star power. From the moment the Bedford-born singer-songwriter stepped on stage, the atmosphere was electric, charged with a raw, infectious confidence balanced by his trademark humility. Grennan managed to strike the perfect balance between spectacle and sincerity, transforming one of London’s largest venues into something that felt remarkably intimate, like a room full of friends.

Ariana Grande is officially heading back to the UK for her Eternal Sunshine Tour. The global pop icon has announced five headline shows at London’s O2 Arena in August 2026, marking her long-awaited return to the UK live stage after a six-year hiatus.
