SJM, Kennedy Street Enterprises, and MCD are the promoters for The Circus Live in 2026. The Script, who supported Take That on the original Circus Live Tour in 2009, will return as special guests on all UK shows, alongside Belinda Carlisle.
In 2009, The Circus Live tour broke UK records as the fastest-selling tour in history, with more than 600,000 tickets sold in under five hours. More than one million fans attended the sell-out shows across the UK and Ireland that year. The band will perform the original 2009 set list, as well as new elements, in 2026.
Take That's 10th studio album is set for release via EMI in late 2026, and an album bundle is available that offers fans first access to tour tickets by pre-ordering the album. This follows the big chart result for This Life in 2023.
The final show scheduled for 2026 is for Dublin's Aviva Stadium on July 4. However, the additional venues for the tour beyond Southampton, Coventry, Sunderland, Glasgow, Cardiff, Manchester, and London have not been explicitly listed in the provided search results. No specific other cities or locations have been mentioned for this tour.
Fans eager to secure their spot at one of the UK's biggest music events next summer should mark their calendars for September 26 and get ready to purchase their tickets at 9.30am. The Circus Live - Summer 2026 is sure to be an unforgettable experience for Take That fans and music lovers alike.
