Foo Fighters announce June 2026 UK shows
Their only UK stadium dates of the year
Foo Fighters have announced two UK concerts for June 2026 as part of their Take Cover Tour.
Dave Grohl, Nate Mendel, Pat Smear, Chris Shiflett, Rami Jaffee and Ilan Rubin will play Liverpool Anfield Stadium on Thursday 25th and Saturday 27th June. They’re the band’s only UK stadium dates of the year.
The intercontinental support acts on the Thursday show are Irish indie giants Inhaler and Japanese punk rockers Otoboke Beaver, while Australian indie pop duo Royel Otis and US alternative rockers Die Spitz support on the Saturday.
Foo Fighters’ Liverpool shows are part of a larger European tour that also visits Osla, Stockholm, Warsaw, Munich, Paris, Berlin, Vienna, Milan, Madrid and Lisbon.
Tickets to Foo Fighters’ Liverpool Anfield Stadium shows will be high in demand when they go on sale from Planet Rock Tickets at 10am on Friday 14th November.
The Anfield shows next summer are Foo Fighters’ first UK dates in two years and their first since drummer Ilan Rubin replaced the ousted Josh Freese.
Incredibly, the gigs will be the first time Foo Fighters have performed in Liverpool since December 1997 at the Royal Court Theatre.
