Steven Wilson has announced details of two very special live shows due to take place in the autumn. Following on from 2025’s globe-spanning tour, Steven Wilson will return to the Royal Albert Hall for the seventh time to play two shows with his band and an orchestra.
The shows will take place on Wednesday 28th and Thursday 29th October. Tickets go on sale on 20th February at 10am.

These Royal Albert Hall shows will be the only Steven Wilson live dates in 2026.
