Kasabian is about to unleash a sonic storm upon our nation, and we couldn't be more pumped! The Leicester rock behemoths have just announced their 'Nothing Better Than This' UK arena tour for December 2026, with a star-studded support lineup featuring The Vaccines. This five-date extravaganza kicks off at Birmingham's Utilita Arena on December 11, before tearing through Glasgow, Cardiff, London, and finally bringing the noise to Manchester's Co-op Live on December 19.
This announcement comes hot on the heels of Kasabian's breathtaking performance at London's Finsbury Park, where a staggering 45,000 fans danced the night away to their anthemic sound. Frontman Serge Pizzorno has been busy honing his craft this summer, with the band delivering unforgettable sets at Boardmasters and Victorious Festival, and set to headline Leeds Festival on Thursday – it's going to be a summer to remember!
The tour shares its name with a track from their forthcoming ninth studio album, 'Act III', which is now set to drop on September 4. Initially delayed until the band could perfect the recording, Pizzorno has promised an album that encapsulates "all that's great about Kasabian," boasting their signature DNA and a "weird goth edge" on the title track.
Produced by Pizzorno and Mark Ralph, 'Act III' follows in the footsteps of their previous albums, 'The Alchemist's Euphoria' (2022) and 'Happenings' (2024). With rehearsals already underway, fans can expect a "full-on relentless" and "era-defining set" that promises to leave them breathless.
Pre-sale tickets for the 'Nothing Better Than This' tour will go live on Wednesday, July 15 at 9am, with general sale commencing at the same time on Friday, July 17. Don't miss your chance to secure your spot at one of the most anticipated tours of the year – Kasabian is about to take their fans on a wild ride!
