James Taylor will be bringing the fire and the rain to London next year for a summer singalong, as he announces a UK tour for next year that will see him play the O2 Arena on July 23, 2026. It comes as part of the ‘An Evening With James Taylor And His All-Star Band’ run of shows, which will also see him play in Edinburgh, Halifax, and Scarborough.
It’ll be your first chance to catch the singer-songwriter live in the UK since an extensive run in 2022, which saw him play a double-header of London shows at the Hammersmith Apollo. Prior to this, his last London show came in 2018 on Paul Simon’s farewell tour at BST Hyde Park.
