Machine Gun Kelly has announced a one-off headline concert at London’s world-famous Royal Albert Hall.

The ‘A Night with Machine Gun Kelly’ concert takes place at the iconic venue on Wednesday 31st May 2023. It follows his short UK arena tour last autumn.

Matthew Todd, Director of Programming at the Royal Albert Hall, said in a statement: “The Hall has been a home for trailblazers, innovators and cultural icons since we opened in 1871.

“We couldn’t be more excited to welcome MGK later this year, one of the leading artists of his generation and someone that has evolved constantly as the best artists do.”

Tickets to Machine Gun Kelly’s Royal Albert Hall concert go on sale from Kerrang! Radio Tickets at 10am on Friday 10th February.

Machine Gun Kelly’s sixth studio album, ‘Mainstream Sellout’, was released last March and it peaked at Number 2 on the UK album chart.

It was his second collaborative project with drummer and producer Travis Barker of blink-182 fame, following 2020's ‘Tickets to My Downfall.’

The album features a number of collaborations including Bring Me The Horizon (on the Kerrang! Radio playlisted ‘Maybe’), Lil Wayne, Pete Davidson, Willow, Blackbear and iann dior.
