Biffy Clyro Announce Biggest Ever Headline Show At Finsbury Park For July 2026

by | Nov 25, 2025

Scottish alt-rock heavyweights Biffy Clyro have announced the biggest headline show of their career, confirming a massive outdoor performance at Finsbury Park, London, on Friday 3rd July 2026. Revealed yesterday, the news arrives as the trio continue an already packed period of activity, currently touring in support of their tenth studio album, Futique, released in September this year. That run includes a major night at London’s O2 Arena on 14th January 2026.

Now the band set their sights on one of the capital’s most iconic outdoor venues, further cementing their reputation as one of the UK’s most powerful live acts.

The bill for Finsbury Park is as explosive as fans would hope: platinum-selling alt-rockers Nothing But Thieves, high-energy genre-blenders Don Broco, a long-awaited return from Yorkshire’s dynamic Marmozets, and California’s surf-punk stalwarts Wavves. Together, the lineup positions the show as one of the marquee rock events of summer 2026.

“Finsbury fuckin’ Park – see you in July. This is going to be so special, don’t miss it!” the band said.

The announcement marks another major milestone in Biffy Clyro’s ever-rising trajectory. From their early days tearing through UK clubs to headlining festivals, stadium shows and arena tours worldwide, the trio — Simon Neil and twin brothers James and Ben Johnston — have never stopped pushing themselves creatively or sonically. Their latest album Futique continues that tradition, blending angular riffs, widescreen choruses and experimental textures that translate explosively on stage.

With the band already deep into a live cycle that finds them performing some of their most ambitious sets to date, anticipation for the Finsbury Park show is enormous. Fans can expect a career-spanning performance: early post-hardcore gems, mid-era anthems from Puzzle and Only Revolutions, and the raw emotional punch of their recent material — all delivered with the intensity and precision that have made Biffy one of Britain’s most loved and respected rock bands.

Finsbury Park has a storied history of hosting landmark gigs — from Queens Of The Stone Age to Arctic Monkeys — and Biffy Clyro’s 2026 takeover is set to join that lineage as a defining moment not only for the band, but for UK rock as a whole.

Tickets are expected to move fast, with presale demand already high and general sale incoming. For fans, this could well be the live highlight of 2026 — a triumphant celebration of a band with nothing left to prove, yet still fighting to outdo themselves every time they step on stage.
