Kneecap Bring UK Headline Tour to O2 City Hall Newcastle

Kneecap at O2 City Hall Newcastle brings the Belfast trio to the city on Friday 4 December 2026 as part of their UK headline run. Doors are at 7pm, with Newcastle one of a small number of major UK dates on the tour.

The trio have built their live reputation around fast-moving hip-hop, club production and a high-energy stage show. Their latest album, FENIAN, gives the tour a substantial body of new material alongside the tracks that have driven their rise through clubs, festivals and larger headline rooms.

The move into O2 City Hall gives the Newcastle show a very different setting from the smaller spaces where many fans first encountered the group. The larger room should give the production more scale, while still keeping the audience close enough for the crowd interaction that has become central to their live performances.

The December run follows a period in which the trio have expanded their audience well beyond Ireland, with headline dates and festival appearances taking them into increasingly large venues. The Newcastle stop gives North East audiences a chance to see that growth in a full headline setting rather than a shorter festival appearance.

Kneecap play O2 City Hall Newcastle on Friday 4 December, with doors at 7pm and a scheduled 11pm curfew. Tickets and current event information are available from the official Academy Music Group event page.
