Fontaines D.C. are set for their biggest headline shows to date in summer 2027, with the Dublin band taking their live show to major stadiums and outdoor venues across the UK.

Following two nights at Ireland's historic Slane Castle, the five-piece will visit Cardiff, Newcastle, Manchester and Glasgow before concluding their UK run at London Stadium on Friday 9th July 2027. Little Simz and Viagra Boys have been confirmed as special guests across all five UK dates.

The announcement represents another significant milestone for Grian Chatten, Carlos O'Connell, Conor Curley, Conor Deegan and Tom Coll, whose rise has taken them from intimate venues to some of the largest stages in Britain and Ireland.

When are Fontaines D.C. touring in 2027?

Fontaines D.C.'s newly announced summer shows begin with two homecoming concerts at Slane Castle in County Meath before moving across the UK.

Fontaines D.C. will begin their newly announced summer 2027 shows with two homecoming performances at Slane Castle in County Meath on Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th June 2027.

The UK leg will then begin at Blackweir Fields in Cardiff on Tuesday 29th June, before the band head north to St James’ Park in Newcastle on Thursday 1st July.

Next, Fontaines D.C. will perform at Heaton Park in Manchester on Saturday 3rd July, followed by Glasgow Green on Tuesday 6th July.

The run concludes with a major headline show at London Stadium on Friday 9th July 2027, bringing their series of summer dates to a close in the capital.

The band's official website currently confirms all five UK dates, beginning at Blackweir Fields on Tuesday 29th June and ending at London Stadium on Friday 9th July.

Fontaines D.C. at Blackweir Fields, Cardiff

The UK leg begins at Blackweir Fields in Cardiff on Tuesday 29th June 2027.

It will give Welsh fans the opportunity to see the band at one of Cardiff's major outdoor concert locations, with Little Simz and Viagra Boys joining the bill.

The Cardiff show starts a run of five dates taking Fontaines D.C. across Britain in just under two weeks.

Fontaines D.C. at St James' Park, Newcastle

Next comes one of the most striking venues on the schedule: St James' Park on Thursday 1st July 2027.

Best known as the home of Newcastle United, the stadium will welcome Fontaines D.C., Little Simz and Viagra Boys for a major summer concert.

Playing a football stadium of this scale is another indication of just how far Fontaines D.C. have progressed since the release of their debut album, Dogrel, in 2019.

Fontaines D.C. at Heaton Park, Manchester

On Saturday 3rd July 2027, Fontaines D.C. head to Heaton Park in Manchester.

The vast outdoor space has hosted some of Britain's biggest concerts, making it a fitting setting for a band moving firmly into large-scale headline territory.

The Manchester performance will once again feature Little Simz and Viagra Boys as special guests.

Fontaines D.C. at Glasgow Green

Scotland follows, with a performance at Glasgow Green on Tuesday 6th July 2027.

The date comes after the band's scheduled OVO Hydro performance in November 2026, showing the growing scale of their live presence in Glasgow.

With Glasgow Green providing a considerably different setting from an indoor arena, the summer concert promises another landmark date in Fontaines D.C.'s increasingly ambitious live schedule.

Fontaines D.C. at London Stadium

The UK run concludes with its London date at London Stadium on Friday 9th July 2027.

It is another major step up for the band. Ticketmaster described the newly announced concerts as Fontaines D.C.'s biggest headline shows yet, while the London Stadium itself has confirmed Little Simz and Viagra Boys as support.

The concert follows Fontaines D.C.'s huge Finsbury Park headline performance in 2025, which drew around 45,000 people.

Taking over London Stadium just two years later demonstrates the remarkable pace of the band's rise.

Who is supporting Fontaines D.C. in 2027?

Fontaines D.C. will be joined by Little Simz and Viagra Boys at each of the five newly announced UK outdoor shows.

Little Simz has established herself as one of Britain's most acclaimed contemporary artists, while Swedish group Viagra Boys bring their distinctive post-punk sound to the line-up.

The Slane Castle shows have a different supporting bill. Hayley Williams, Damien Dempsey and Madra Salach have been announced as special guests for the Irish dates.

Fontaines D.C.'s journey to their biggest shows yet

The scale of the 2027 dates reflects an extraordinary period for Fontaines D.C.

Formed in Dublin, the band released debut album Dogrel in 2019 before following it with A Hero's Death in 2020, Skinty Fia in 2022 and Romance in 2024. Their fifth studio album, Dopamine Chamber, is due to arrive on Friday 16th October 2026 through XL Recordings.

Romance reached number two on the UK Albums Chart, while Fontaines D.C. went on to win International Group of the Year at the BRIT Awards in 2025.

Their progression as a live act has been equally significant. After a major Finsbury Park headline show and headline appearances at Reading and Leeds in 2026, the band announced a UK arena tour for November 2026. Most dates sold out rapidly, preceding the announcement of the larger outdoor concerts for 2027.

What can fans expect from Fontaines D.C.'s 2027 shows?

With Dopamine Chamber arriving before the tour, the 2027 concerts are likely to draw from five studio albums.

The band's catalogue now stretches from early tracks on Dogrel through the darker sound of Skinty Fia, the expansive direction of Romance and their forthcoming fifth record.

That gives Fontaines D.C. considerable material to work with as they prepare for the largest headline concerts of their career.

The exact 2027 setlist has not been announced, so fans will have to wait to discover which songs make the final selection.

Fontaines D.C. 2027 tickets

Tickets for the five UK outdoor dates are scheduled to go on general sale at 10:00am on Thursday 10th September 2026.

Artist pre-sale is scheduled to begin at 10:00am on Tuesday 8th September 2026, with fans able to register in advance. Those who have already pre-ordered Dopamine Chamber through the band's official store are also set to receive access to the artist pre-sale.

Given that much of Fontaines D.C.'s November 2026 UK arena tour sold out before the outdoor dates were announced, demand for the 2027 concerts is expected to be significant.

Experience Fontaines D.C. live in 2027

From Slane Castle to London Stadium, summer 2027 will see Fontaines D.C. step onto some of the biggest stages of their career.

The combination of major outdoor venues, an extensive catalogue and the arrival of Dopamine Chamber makes this a significant new chapter for one of Ireland's most successful contemporary bands.

For fans looking to make the occasion even more memorable, premium hospitality can provide an enhanced way to experience selected concerts, with benefits varying by venue and package.
