The Script announce 8th album and November 2026 UK tour
Danny O'Donoghue and co. are hitting the road
Irish pop rock sensations The Script have announced their eighth studio album and a headline UK arena tour for November 2026.
Recorded in Topanga Canyon, Los Angeles, ‘The User’s Guide To Being Human’ is released on Friday 10th August and it features 10 all-new The Script tracks including lead single ‘Man in the Arena’.
Frontman Danny O’Donoghue says of the album: “The title is what this album is about. If you need something to remind you of the spectrum of feelings and emotions that make you feel human, this is it.”
Following the release of ‘The User’s Guide To Being Human’, The Script will embark on a major headline tour that starts with two dates in the band’s native Dublin.
The Script’s UK tour opens at Belfast SSE Arena on Monday 2nd November, and visits Newcastle, Birmingham, Manchester, Nottingham, Leeds, Aberdeen, Glasgow, Sheffield, Bournemouth, Cardiff and Liverpool before concluding at London The O2 on Saturday 21st November.
James Morrison is the very special guest at all dates.
Tickets to the UK shows go on sale from Absolute Radio Tickets at 9.30am on Friday 29th May.
Before their headline shows, The Script will play to an audience of 1.3 million this summer with a run of fifteen UK stadium shows as special guests to Take That next month, followed by five dates as special guest to Luke Combs including Slane Castle in Ireland.
