Take That fans won’t have long to wait to secure their spot for one of next summer’s biggest live music events. Tickets for the band’s Circus Live 2026 Tour will go on sale at 9.30am on Friday, 26 September via Ticketmaster, Gigsandtours, and Take That’s official website.

Those who preorder the group’s upcoming album, due in 2026, will get access to an exclusive presale.

The 11-date stadium tour will see Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen revive their legendary Circus Live show, which first wowed audiences in 2009. That run made history when more than 600,000 tickets sold in just five hours, beating Michael Jackson’s 1988 Bad tour record and ultimately attracting over a million fans.

Known for its breathtaking production, the original Circus Live featured fire-breathers, stilt-walkers, clowns, acrobats, tap dancers and even a 30-foot-tall mechanical elephant. The band have confirmed the 2026 shows will bring back all the circus elements, along with the original setlist plus a few new surprises.

In a statement, the trio said: "The Circus tour was one of our favourite experiences as a band and, in the years since, we've talked many times about how much we'd love to do it again one day. Well, that time has come!"

The tour kicks off in Southampton on 29 May 2026 and will feature special guests The Script—who supported the band on the original Circus tour—and Belinda Carlisle, who will appear at every show except the Dublin finale.
