The series opens with Northern Irish indie favourites Two Door Cinema Club on 26th June, celebrating the 15th anniversary of their beloved debut album Tourist History. The band will perform the record in full alongside a selection of their biggest hits. They’ll be joined by special guests The Vaccines performing their debut album What Did You Expect from the Vaccines? in full, plus appearances from alt-pop artist James Marriott and indie rock outfit The Royston Club.

The following day, Irish rap trio Kneecap will deliver their biggest headline show to date. Known for their incendiary live performances and bilingual hip-hop, the group will be joined by a stacked line-up including The Mary Wallopers, Fat Dog, Biig Piig, Gurriers and Madra Salach, promising one of the standout gatherings in London’s Irish cultural calendar.

Legendary Californian punk band The Offspring will then take over the park on 28th June, bringing their high-octane catalogue to the capital. They’ll be supported by Celtic punk heroes Dropkick Murphys, skate punk stalwarts Pennywise and rising punk outfit Destroy Boys, with more acts still to be announced. “Nobody rocks like the UK rocks,” the band said in a statement. “This is gonna be a great day out.”

The following weekend, the concert series returns on 3rd July with Northern Irish alt-rock giants Snow Patrol headlining a rare outdoor London show. The evening will also feature powerhouse vocalist Rag’n’Bone Man and rising indie-pop artist Nieve Ella, with additional names still to come. Frontman Gary Lightbody said the band were excited to return to the capital for what promises to be a memorable open-air performance.

The series concludes on 4th July with a special appearance from seven-time GRAMMY®-winning singer-songwriter Alanis Morissette. The influential alternative icon will be joined by British rock powerhouse Skunk Anansie for a landmark summer show.

Wembley Can Wait – Palaye Royale Bring Blood Sweat And Tears To Camden’s Barfly

On the afternoon of October 7th, Remington Leith, Sebastian Danzig, and Emerson Barrett stood staring at the 12,000 vacant seats of Wembley Arena. They were there to survey the colossal venue they are booked to conquer on the 3rd of April 2027. Yet, by nightfall, the brothers had willingly locked themselves inside a 200-capacity North London sweatbox. That stark, deliberate contrast is the beautiful paradox of Palaye Royale right now.
