Yungblud is set to play a massive gig in Leeds this week, as the Yorkshire-born rocker returns to his home county.
The boundary-pushing artist from Doncaster will take the stage at the First Direct Arena on Friday 17 April as part of his Idols World Tour.
Announcing the tour last year, he said: "UK. It’s been two years! I’m so excited to announce our biggest shows yet... Let’s go."
Yungblud has amassed legions of fans since exploding onto the scene in 2018 with his debut album 21st Century Liability.
And thousands of those fans - who call themselves the Black Hearts Club - will be gathering together this week to see him performing at Leeds' First Direct Arena.
Over the course of his career, Yungblud has collaborated with artists such as Halsey, Machine Gun Kelly, Travis Barker, and Denzel Curry, with notable hits including 'I Think I'm Okay', 'Zombie' and 'Parents'.
He's had three albums hit the top of the UK Albums Chart, including last year's Idols, which has lent its name to this world tour.
And you might recognise him as the vocal talent trusted to take the place of Ozzy Osbourne, performing Changes as a tribute following the rock legend's death.
If you're one of the lucky ones with tickets to see Yungblud at the First Direct Arena in Leeds, here's everything you need to know.
Tickets
Yungblud at First Direct Arena, Leeds - stage times, setlist, support and more
We've already mentioned that Yungblud has a massive, and very dedicated fan base - which means the show is almost completely sold out... but not quite.
A handful of standing tickets have appeared for sale, priced at £54.50.
There are also a few resale tickets popping up - you can check the latest through Ticketmaster HERE.
Support act
Yungblud has two excellent groups supporting him on the Idols World Tour, including here in Leeds.
Opening the show will be The Molotovs, an sibling rock band from London who released their debut album, Wasted on Youth, earlier this year.
Then the main support will come from The Warning, a Mexican rock group which, coincidentally, is also made up of siblings - this time the Villarreal Vélez sisters: Daniela, Paulina, and Alejandra.

Again - really, really dedicated fanbase this guy has, which has led to First Direct Arena issuing a strict 'no camping outside' warning.
If you want that barricade, the queue will likely start early tomorrow morning, with a numbering system in place.
After closing for the entire second day, The Warehouse stage at Leeds Festival has once again been forced to evacuate.
One of the most anticipated dance acts of the day has been cancelled due to health and safety concerns just moments before the set.
Sheffield DJ Silva Bumpa was due to take to The Warehouse stage today at 1:30pm, but the set was cancelled due to overcrowding.
It's not the first time this has happened at Leeds Festival 2026, as yesterday Omar+'s set was cancelled due to the same issue and the stage was subsequently closed for the rest of the day.
The Warehouse stage is completely new for this year, and supposedly is designed specifically for dance music...which is quite ironic.
Announcing the news to Instagram, Silva Bumpa said: "So so sorry Leeds Fest but due to over crowding my set was cancelled last min I was just behind the stage and got told right before such a massive shame."
Prospa, another prominent DJ who's set was cancelled at Reading on Friday afternoon, spoke up on the situation: "We are disappointed in The Warehouse stage closure at Reading Festival. We were told it wasn't possible to play whilst on the way. This was due to too many people outside the stage.
"We have seen this happen before at larger festivals in the UK. It's time to double the capacity of tents or put dance music on the main stage."
It comes after another dance stage, LS23, was closed mid-set last night due to a health and safety hazard when all the lights suddenly switched off and ravers were forced to evacuate.
If yesterday is anything to go by, we wouldn't be surprised if The Warehouse was closed for the rest of the day which means anticipated sets from Rossi and Mall Grab will also be cancelled.
‘Actually lost for words’ – huge artist speaks out as Leeds Festival set is cancelled due to overcrowding
Clementine Hall
For the second day in a row, a huge set has been cancelled due to overcrowding at Reading and Leeds Festival.
Day two of the festival and there's some pretty disappointed ravers hanging their head as one of the biggest dance music sets of the day is cancelled.
Omar+, a rising British electronic DJ and producer, was due to play on the brand-new Warehouse stage at Reading yesterday and Leeds today.
Yesterday's set was cancelled last minute due to overcrowding, and low and behold the same has happened here in Leeds.
Announcing the sad news to his story, Omar+ said "Actually lost for words. My Leeds set has been cancelled due to overcrowding."
He then went on to show a screenshot of a text message, reading: "I've never seen something like this in my entire life where two shows back to back are cancelled due to overcrowding."
