ANNOUNCE NEW 2026 UK HEADLINE SHOWS
‘A GRAND DON’T COME FOR FREE’ IN FULL
Following a huge Summer of major sold-out headline shows across the UK, revered British multi-hyphenates The Streets have announced three new dates for November 2026.
Mike Skinner and his band will perform the seminal album 'A Grand Don't Come For Free' in its entirety at Southend Cliffs Pavilion on 3rd November, O2 Academy Birmingham on 4th November, which will be their final Birmingham show of the year and Cardiff Depot on 6th November.
Originally released in 2004, A Grand Don’t Come For Free remains one of the most important and influential British albums of the 21st century. Entering the UK charts at No.1, the record went multi-platinum and delivered era-defining singles including Dry Your Eyes, Fit But You Know It, and Blinded By The Lights. It cemented Skinner as one of the UK’s most original and vital voices, capturing the humour, heartbreak and raw emotion of everyday life with rare poetic clarity.
The Streets’ UK tour in 2026 marks the first time the outfit has performed the album in full, giving fans a chance to experience the full story exactly as it was intended: a cinematic journey through love, loss, chaos, heartbreak and hope, delivered with Skinner’s trademark raw honesty and wit. Alongside the album, The Streets will also perform a selection of Mike Skinner’s most beloved songs from across his catalogue.
These special, limited series of intimate shows will see them gearing up for their European winter festival dates. Tickets go on sale Friday 4th September at 10am and will be available from www.gigsandtours.com / www.ticketmaster.co.uk
