Lily Allen has announced she will embark on her first tour in seven years when she performs a series of UK theatre shows in March 2026, with tickets going on sale this Friday, November 7 at 10am.
The critically acclaimed singer-songwriter will perform her brand-new album ‘West End Girl’ in its entirety across 12 specially selected theatre venues, concluding with two nights at The London Palladium on March 20 and 21. Allen last toured with her album ‘No Shame’ in 2018/2019, though she has made surprise guest appearances with Olivia Rodrigo at Glastonbury in 2022 and Shy FX at the festival in 2025.
The show, titled ‘Lily Allen Performs West End Girl’, will see the artist play her new album in the order the songs appear on the record. Allen has specifically chosen theatre venues rather than traditional concert halls to showcase the new material, which has received widespread critical acclaim since its release.
‘West End Girl’ has been hailed by critics as a major return to form, with The Sunday Times calling it “fantastic” and The Independent declaring it “her best album in 16 years.” The BBC praised it as “one for the history books,” while Vogue stated Allen is “at the very peak of her powers.” NME described it as “a sleek, smart collection that sees Allen back at her very best,” and Variety named it “an album of the year contender.”
The March 2026 tour kicks off in Scotland before travelling through major cities across England and Wales. The intimate theatre settings will provide fans with a unique opportunity to experience the new album in a more theatrical and personal environment than typical arena shows.
Tickets for all dates will be available from Friday, November 7 at 10am from this page on Ticketmaster, with demand expected to be high given the seven-year gap since Allen’s last full tour.
