The soloist and former Smiths frontman is due to headline The O2 in Greenwich on Saturday February 28, marking his only UK gig of the year.
“It’s a date,” a post on Morrissey’s official social media channels read today (Monday October 6). “Morrissey is pleased to announce one night at London’s The O2, in a UK exclusive show on Saturday 28th February 2026.”
Tickets for the legendary artist’s return to the capital go on sale at 9am BST this Friday (October 10) – you’ll be able to buy yours here. Alternatively, fans can access a pre-sale at the same time on Wednesday (8) by signing up here.
Morrissey’s most recent London show took place at the Eventim Apollo in March 2023, as part of his European tour that year. He last played in the UK and Ireland this summer, when he took to the stage in Dublin, Glasgow and Manchester.
The singer-songwriter is currently out on a North American tour. Last month, he cancelled two concerts in the US following a “credible threat” on his life.
In other news, Morrissey recently took to his website to confirm that he had “no choice but to offer for sale all of his business interests” in The Smiths to any potential investors or parties.
He explained: “I am burnt out by any and all connections to [Johnny] Marr, [Andy] Rourke, [Mike] Joyce. I have had enough of malicious associations. With my entire life I have paid my rightful dues to these songs and these images. I would now like to live disassociated from those who wish me nothing but ill-will and destruction, and this is the only resolution.”
A subsequent update announced that the email address for offers had been “switched off” due to a “colossal response”.
Elsewhere, Morrissey revealed that he had “politely declined” an invitation to perform at Reform UK’s party conference.
