Florence + The Machine are heading back out on a huge arena tour, with a massive gig in Sheffield lined up for 2026.
Florence Welch has announced the UK and European tour dates in support of her sixth studio album, Everybody Scream.
As well as a show at the Utilita Arena in Sheffield, Florence + The Machine will perform in Manchester, London and Liverpool, along with several other UK cities.
She'll be joined by Paris Paloma as support across all 18 dates.
Last week, Florence released the album's title track, ahead of the album's release on 31 October. She's worked for two years on this new music, calling on collaborators including Mark Bowen of IDLES, Aaron Dessner and Mitski.
She has said that this new album explores womanhood, partnership, aging and dying, inspired by her recovery from lifesaving surgery on the Dance Fever Tour.
Big hits of Florence + The Machine's discography include You've Got The Love, Shake It Out, and Spectrum (Say My Name), and she's collaborated with the likes of Taylor Swift, The Rolling Stones, and Lady Gaga.
She's famed for her high-energy, ethereal stage presence which has seen her sell out arenas for years.
Florence + The Machine will be back in Sheffield in February 2026, performing at the Utilita Arena on 14 February.
Tickets go on sale on Friday 5 September 2025 at 10am HERE.
There are also packages available with Seat Unique HERE.
