Saint Etienne Announce Final UK & Ireland Tour – September 2026

by | Nov 27, 2025

Saint Etienne played their first ever live show on 15 November 1990 at Heaven nightclub in London, just months after releasing their debut single ‘Only Love Can Break Your Heart’.

Since then, they’ve appeared at major festivals across the globe, visiting more countries than Bob Stanley, Pete Wiggs and Sarah Cracknell can count on their combined fingers, and their UK tours have, at various points, featured Oasis, Stereolab, Broadcast and Pulp in support. They’ve also shared bills alongside the great and the good, from James Brown to Kylie Minogue.

Their final studio album ‘International’, released in September 2025, was praised as a pop music masterclass that distilled everything fans love about Saint Etienne. To celebrate both the album and the band’s long goodbye, shows were promised, and now the details of their final UK tour in September 2026 are confirmed.

Rather than a moment of sadness, the band see this as a series of celebrations: parties built around a live set that draws on the “best of the best” from their illustrious 35-year catalogue, including 17 UK Top 40 singles and 13 albums.

Will there be shows in Europe, America, Japan or Australia? Time will tell – but the band are clear: if you want to catch Saint Etienne on tour in the UK, 2026 will be the final opportunity.
