The Guest List have just completed yet another sold-out UK tour, and rather than take a breath, they’ve announced their biggest run of dates yet. A summer packed with festival appearances gives way to a full European and UK headline tour in October and November — culminating in a headline show at London’s Scala on 24th November that feels like a genuine marker of how far they’ve come.
The festival stretch is substantial. Neighbourhood Weekender in Warrington kicks things off in May, followed by Isle of Wight Festival, Back Doune the Rabbit Hole, Tramlines, Latitude, Camp Bestival, Boardmasters, and headline slots at Reading and Leeds in August before Victorious rounds out the summer. A second Neighbourhood Festival date in Manchester in October completes a summer that would have been unthinkable for most bands at this stage of their career.
The European leg of the headline tour opens in Brussels on 21st October, moving through Rotterdam, Cologne, Berlin, Hamburg, Utrecht and Paris before the UK dates take over in November — Newcastle, Glasgow, Birmingham, Oxford, Southampton, London, Leeds and Bristol.
It’s a tour built around their debut album Something Real, out 28th August, which tackles everything from climate anxiety and domestic violence to post-truth culture and the confusion of being young right now. For everything on the album and new single You Should Care, head to our album piece.
