Niall Horan has announced his return to arenas across the UK and Europe this autumn, with the Dinner Party Live on Tour run kicking off on September 22 in Birmingham and taking in London’s The O2, Dublin’s 3Arena, Amsterdam’s Ziggo Dome and Paris’ Accor Arena among a run of 22 dates across the continent.
The tour comes in support of Dinner Party, his fourth studio album, out June 5 via Capitol Records. The lead single of the same name is out today, and it sets the tone for what sounds like Horan’s most personal record yet — that he began writing in 2024 after turning 30, taking stock of where he’d been and where he was heading. Produced by his longtime collaborators Julian Bunetta and John Ryan, with co-writers including Amy Allen and Joel Little, the album promises warmth, wit and the kind of songwriting that feels genuinely lived-in rather than constructed.
It’s worth remembering just how big Horan has become as a solo artist since his One Direction days. His last album The Show topped the charts in the UK and on Billboard’s Top Album Sales Chart, the lead single ‘Heaven’ gave him the biggest streaming day of his solo career, and his 2024 world tour sold over 1.2 million tickets. He’s also won three seasons of NBC’s The Voice as a coach, which by any measure is a remarkable record. The arena-sized ambitions are very much warranted.
He recently teamed up with Myles Smith on ‘Drive Safe’, which should have kept him firmly on your radar in the meantime.
A nice touch: £1 from every UK ticket sale will be donated to the LIVE Trust, supporting and expanding grassroots music venues across the country.
