Take That bring back The Circus Live Tour for 2026
Take That are bringing the circus back to stadiums across the UK and Ireland in 2026.
Take That are reviving The Circus Live Tour for 2026.
The Relight My Fire hitmakers - Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald - will take fans on a trip down memory lane with The Circus Live run heading to stadiums in the UK and Ireland next summer.
Fans can expect a similar setlist to the original 2009 tour, which saw the band joined by circus performers and ride on a giant mechanical elephant and became the fastest-selling jaunt in history in the UK, with some surprises thrown in.
The tour kicks off at St Mary’s Stadium in Southampton on May 29, before stops in Coventry, Sunderland, Glasgow, Cardiff, Manchester, and two nights at London Stadium on June 26 and 27.
Take That will wrap then run at Dublin’s Aviva Stadium on July 4.
Former members Robbie Williams and Howard Donald are not expected to take part.
In a statement, the chart-topping trio said: "The Circus tour was one of our favourite experiences as a band and, in the years since, we've talked many times about how much we'd love to do it again one day. Well, that time has come! We’re so excited to welcome audiences old and new across the UK and Ireland to the spectacle of The Circus Live next summer. See you out there!"
The Shine hitmakers will also be supported once again by The Script, as well as Belinda Carlisle, on all dates except for Dublin.
Tickets go on sale on Friday September 26 at 9.30am from www.ticketmaster.co.uk / www.gigsandtours.com / www.takethat.com.
