Fontaines D.C. add second huge Manchester Heaton Park gig to 2027 outdoor and stadium tour

Fontaines D.C. add second huge Manchester Heaton Park gig to 2027 outdoor and stadium tour

Fontaines D.C. have added a second date at Manchester Heaton Park to their 2027 outdoor and stadium tour.

The Irish indie-rock giants confirmed headline shows taking place across the UK in summer 2027 last week following tickets for their 2026 tour going on sale and many dates selling out within minutes, including arena shows in Spain, Italy, France, and all across the UK.

The dates included Blackweir Fields in Cardiff, followed by slots at Newcastle‘s St James’ Park, Manchester’s Heaton Park, Glasgow Green and London Stadium with support coming from Little Simz and Viagra Boys.

Now due to phenomenal demand, a new date at Heaton Park has been announced on July 4.

Tickets for all the shows go on sale on Thursday (September 10) at 10am BST and can be purchased here. Tickets are also currently being sold in a pre-sale which can be purchased here.

Fontaines D.C.’s new album ‘Dopamine Chamber’ drops on October 16 via XL Recordings – produced by James Ford and follows their UK platinum-certified 2024 album ‘Romance’. It has already been previewed by the lead single ‘Marianne’ and further new songs ‘Six Shot Morning’ and ‘Happy, For You’.

The latter got its live debut at Leeds Festival, after technical and logistical problems forced them to cut the track from their Reading headline show the previous evening.

NME awarded Fontaines D.C.’s Reading headline performance four-and-a-half stars, writing: “Sorry for the short set,” ends Chatten before the pure anxiety explosion of the full stop of ‘Starburster’. We hear that three songs – and reportedly another never-played-before new one – were cut from the setlist due to the delay, and we envy the people at the sister site in Leeds who we assume are going to get the full Fontaines R+L headline experience as it was intended.

“Either way, tonight was a deserved coronation from the band of our time, even if we didn’t get them in full.”
