Following his headline show at Custom House Square this weekend, David Gray today announces a brand-new summer run of UK & Ireland dates for June–July 2026 as part of his Past & Present World Tour.

📍 SSE Arena Belfast - June 16th 2026

🎶 With special guest The Divine Comedy

David says, “We’ve had the most amazing tour this year, from the opening night in Boston to the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville, and then on to the Royal Albert Hall in London and the 3Arena in Dublin.

"These have been some of the most memorable and magical shows of my entire career. We’ve pushed ourselves as a band but it’s been richly rewarding and SO MUCH FUN! When everyone is in such fine form it would seem wrong to stop the ball from rolling - so with that in mind I’m delighted to announce a string of further dates for the summer of 2026. Exciting times!”

Tickets will be available via artist pre-sale on Tuesday 2 September at 10am, followed by a Spotify pre-sale on Wednesday 3 September at 10am, and local pre-sales on Thursday 4 September at 10am.
