Richard Ashcroft announces headline show at the M&S Bank Arena

Richard Ashcroft has announced a headline show at Liverpool’s M&S Bank Arena on Thursday, March 26, 2026.

Following a sold-out performance at Manchester’s Co-op Live and a summer of stadium shows as special guest to Oasis, Richard Ashcroft has announced a Liverpool date as one of just a handful of arena shows scheduled for Spring 2026.

This show marks The Verve front man’s long-awaited return to the city, a place that has always shared a strong connection with his music, from the days of Urban Hymns through to his acclaimed solo work.

Renowned for his unmistakable voice and timeless songwriting, Richard Ashcroft has become one of the most important British artists of his generation. From anthems like Bittersweet Symphony and The Drugs Don’t Work with The Verve, to solo hits such as A Song for the Lovers and Break the Night With Colour, his live shows continue to inspire devotion from fans across the UK.

Expect a setlist packed with classics, career-spanning hits, and the kind of transcendent performance that has made Richard Ashcroft one of the country’s most revered live acts.
