DEAD POET SOCIETY

When: Thursday 28th January - Saturday 6th February 2027 (multiple UK dates)

Following the recent release of new singles "Sinner Systems" and "Roach", Dead Poet Society return to the UK for their biggest headline dates yet. Since breaking through with -!- (2021) and expanding their ambitious alt-rock sound on FISSION (2024), the Los Angeles quartet have continued to evolve, carving out a distinctive space in modern rock with their technical musicianship and fearless songwriting.

The new songs offer the clearest indication yet of the band's next creative chapter, introducing a darker, more cinematic sound while retaining the raw honesty that has become Dead Poet Society's calling card. Produced by Paul Meany (Twenty One Pilots, Pierce the Veil), the latest material arrives as the band prepare to take on their largest UK headline venues to date.

The run includes a headline show at Electric Ballroom, London, on Saturday 6th February 2027.

DEATH CAB FOR CUTIE

When: Sunday 27th September 2026 (De La Warr Pavilion, Bexhill-on-Sea)

Death Cab for Cutie have added a Bexhill-on-Sea date to their I Built You A Tower Tour, bringing the September UK run to the iconic De La Warr Pavilion alongside previously announced shows in Bristol and London.

The tour supports I Built You a Tower, the band's first studio album in four years. Produced by John Congleton, the record finds Ben Gibbard reflecting on grief, change and resilience with a renewed sense of focus, recalling the emotionally rich songwriting that first made Death Cab for Cutie one of indie-rock's defining bands. The announcement follows the band's Transatlanticism 20th anniversary tour that sold more than 400,000 tickets across North America and a headline appearance at London's All Points East.

Support comes from Florida emo and math-rock outfit Pool Kids, making this a well-matched bill in one of the UK's most distinctive seaside venues.

GIGANTIC ALL DAYER

When: Saturday 1st May 2027 (The Prospect Building, Bristol)

After a successful two-year run in Bristol, the Gigantic All Dayer returns to The Prospect Building on Saturday 1st May 2027 for 12 hours of classic alternative music, craft ale and street food.

Headlining the 2027 edition are Gene, the London Britpop four-piece who called time in 2004 but have spent the past year making a quietly emphatic comeback, selling out shows in Leeds, Sheffield and the Hammersmith Apollo. Their appearance at the All Dayer marks their Bristol debut and the latest chapter in a reunion that has surprised even long-term followers with its momentum. 

Elsewhere across the bill, Ned's Atomic Dustbin return following their rapturous reception at a previous edition, while The Wedding Present arrive after celebrating the 35th anniversary of Seamonsters. EMF, Stereo MC's, Miki Berenyi Trio and The Primitives complete a line-up that brings together some of alternative music's most enduring names, alongside craft beer, street food and DJ sets from Marc & Jase Jones and the SHIIINE ON DJs.

TesseracT return to the UK this autumn for The Descent Tour, with headline shows at Manchester Academy and London's O2 Academy Brixton. The newly announced dates continue another strong chapter for the Milton Keynes progressive metal outfit, long regarded as pioneers of the modern djent movement.

The tour arrives after TesseracT revisited their acclaimed 2023 album War of Being with this year's instrumental edition, War of Being (Instrumentals), continuing a creative run that also saw the release of RADAR, a live album and concert film capturing their headline performance at Manchester's Radar Festival. Few bands in the genre balance technical precision with emotional weight quite as effectively.
