Multi-BRIT Award nominee Olivia Dean is set to embark on her biggest headline tour to date in 2026, including two momentous nights at The O2 in London. The announcement follows the success of her latest single, ‘Man I Need’, and builds anticipation for her highly-awaited second album, ‘The Art Of Loving’, which is scheduled for release on September 26th.
The tour, a testament to Dean's rapid rise, will kick off on April 23rd at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro before hitting Manchester's Co-op Live and culminating in the two landmark London shows on April 29th and 30th. This impressive jump to arena-sized venues signifies a new chapter for the artist, who previously captivated audiences at intimate sold-out gigs at London’s O2 Shepherd’s Bush Empire.
Following the UK leg, Dean will bring her acclaimed live show to thousands of fans across Europe, with dates in Brussels, Amsterdam, Berlin, Copenhagen, and more. The tour promises to feature tracks from her forthcoming album, ‘The Art Of Loving’, as well as fan favourites from her Mercury Prize-nominated debut, 'Messy', including 'Dive' and 'The Hardest Part'.
The new album, which explores various dimensions of love, has been teased with the release of recent singles 'Lady Lady' and 'Nice to Each Other', both of which have been steadily climbing the charts. Having already shared stages with major artists like Sam Fender and Sabrina Carpenter, the 2026 tour solidifies Olivia Dean's position as one of the most compelling voices of her generation.
Tickets for the tour will be available for early access to those who pre-order the new album. General sale begins on August 29th.
