Bastille will perform in Brighton as part of their first UK arena tour in more than three years. The multi-platinum selling band will play at The Brighton Centre on November 16, 2025, as part of their "From All Sides" tour. The tour will see the band perform in nine cities across the UK, starting in Plymouth on November 6 and finishing at London's O2 Arena on November 18.
The "From All Sides" tour will be the only opportunity to see the four-piece – Dan Smith, Will Farquarson, Chris 'Woody' Wood, and Kyle Simmons – perform live globally in 2025. Each show will feature songs from across Bastille's entire discography, including fan favourites, rarities from the Other People's Heartache mixtapes, and songs from the band’s four top five charting albums, which include three UK number ones – Bad Blood (2013), Wild World (2016), Give Me The Future (2022), and Doom Days, number four (2019). The band said: "We’re really excited to announce that we’re going on tour for the first time in a while to play the songs we all love from our first 15 years and beyond.
"Hope to see a load of you in November." As well as announcing the tour, Bastille have also said they are supporting grassroots youth music spaces by giving a tour donation to Youth Music's 'Rescue the Roots' campaign. Youth Music, the UK’s leading charity helping marginalised young people make and monetise music, announced its urgent £1 million ‘Rescue the Roots’ fundraising campaign earlier this month to address the funding crisis threatening grassroots youth music projects across the country.
The sector is currently at breaking point and without action, the future of young people’s lives in music will be even more bleak - a recent survey found that 41 per cent of grassroots youth music projects are at risk of closure - an increase of 17 per cent from last year. Youth Music will match every pound raised up to £1 million to create a total of £2 million to quickly distribute to youth organisations and emerging young creatives who are in urgent need of support. Bastille's tour donation will therefore be match funded by Youth Music, doubling its impact.
In addition to the donation, Bastille will help support Youth Music's NextGen Community throughout the tour with mentoring sessions, giving young people wanting to get into the music industry insight and understanding on the live sector and arena tours. Matt Griffiths, Youth Music CEO, said: "The crisis facing grassroots youth music projects is at breaking point. "The lack of funding available is at critically low levels and the threat of closure for many is more imminent than ever.
"We're delighted to further develop our relationship with Bastille, who have also supported us previously, to help raise awareness and funds for our Rescue the Roots campaign while in addition to this, giving our NextGen Community vital insight and knowledge on how the live sector of the music industry works." With more than 13 million records sold, three number one albums, six UK top 40 singles, and two billion video views, Bastille continue to be one of the world’s most streamed bands. Tickets for the tour go on general sale on March 28.
