Cardiff 2026

[Bob123456]

Who Do we think will be coming to Blackweir, Principality and the castle next year??

[foolee]

Muse could be due a tour with a new single/assuming an album is coming later in the year but could equally do arenas in the winter/early next year and then do IOW, Download or Victorious. 

[loikju]

My current predictions are:

Castle

Scissor Sisters

Biffy Clyro

CMAT

Lola young

HAIM

Jessie Ware

Bloc Party

 

Blackweir

Chapel Roan

Hozier

Sam Fender

Sabrina Carpenter

Kylie Minogue

RAYE

 

Stadium

Ed Sheeran

Muse

The Weeknd

Arctic Monkeys

Ariana Grande

Sam Fender

Thought he would have been great for this year with the big shows he's been doing and skipping anywhere remotely close to Wales. Although I also thought he was pretty much nailed on for headlining Glasto this year too. 

[TheSheriff]

Can’t see Blackweir happening again, didn’t go down well with residents, and a lot a of people left disgruntled by the set up of the place

Maybe My Chem romance for the stadium?

Inclined to agree. Not convinced there will be any other dates

Unfortunately I think some of these are quite unlikely and this is heavily leaning toward a younger demographic - there will definitely be some legacy acts sprinkled in, especially in the Castle. Scissor Sisters, Jessie Ware, Sam Fender all feel realistic tbf.

Makes up for the less than stellar tour options if you below Birmingham 😂

[loikju]

Looks like they're confident of getting Blackweir back (or trying to force the council's hand)

[Bob123456]

With the Effort put into organising it and

the damage  it caused to the football and cricket pitches i couldn’t not see it coming back for a second year. Most of it was very successful and they also had the unfortunate Pull out from KOL

[NorthernSoul52]

Will be intriguing to see if it is considered a success when all is said and done.

[Bob123456]

Any other shouts for Blackweir or the Stadium

[WalesGolfMadrid]

Are Muse still big enough to do stadiums?

 

My dream acts would be NIN/Tame Impala for Blackweir/Cardiff Castle. 

 

A shout but unlikely - The Rolling Stones. Although I think they will just play major places in Europe next year. But they were great in 2018. 

 

I imagine U2 will be at the Millennium in 2027.

The Rolling Stones being active next year - have we heard much on that at all? If they're around, think BST is their likely destination.

 

Nine Inch Nails would be excellent, but no idea how they'd sell. They didn't sell out - or if they did, it was late on - with some of those arena shows.

Second Capaldi date added for Weds 1st July.

What reddit ? And blackweir or stadium?

[WalesGolfMadrid]

I'd be impressed if it's the Millennium.

 

Other acts... Take That are playing there, teased on social media.

Have pre-emptively booked a hotel if it is Maiden.
