Richard Ashcroft Adds Huge Alexandra Palace Park Show as Tour Demand Surges

Richard Ashcroft has confirmed a major new London headline show at Alexandra Palace Park on 17 July 2026, following phenomenal demand for tickets to his upcoming UK arena tour — including a now sold-out date at The O2.

The announcement comes as Ashcroft hits his stride once again. Fresh from turning in a run of storming sets on Oasis’s reunion tour, the former Verve frontman now builds towards the release of Lovin’ You, his new album landing October 10, 2025, with momentum firmly on his side.

Tickets for Ashcroft’s arena tour were snapped up in record time, with London’s O2 selling out months ahead of time, hot on the heels of packed-out dates in Manchester, Cardiff and Liverpool. With demand showing no signs of slowing, extra shows have been added along the way — and now Alexandra Palace Park becomes the fourth new date to join a tour that’s fast turning into one of his biggest yet.

Set against the dramatic backdrop of north London’s skyline, Alexandra Palace Park promises a unique mid-summer atmosphere for the 13,500 fans expected to attend. Tickets for the newly announced show will go on sale HERE from 10 am this Friday, 3 October.

Ashcroft’s upcoming album, Lovin’ You, is now available to pre-order HERE and is expected to continue the renewed appreciation of his influential catalogue. The two-time Ivor Novello Award winner and triple BRIT Award recipient remains one of British music’s most compelling voices, from his iconic work with The Verve — whose Urban Hymns remains an 11x Platinum classic — to his expansive solo material.

Ashcroft’s 2026 UK tour is now set to play to more than 130,000 fans in total, making it one of his most ambitious solo outings to date.
