Kasabian's Big Reveal: From Pub to Park
Kasabian surprises fans with a small pub gig while announcing their biggest show yet at Finsbury Park for summer 2026.
Kasabian's Surprise Pub Gig
Last night, fans of the iconic band Kasabian were treated to an unexpected and intimate performance at The Finsbury pub in North London. This surprise gig came just after the announcement of a massive outdoor show scheduled for summer 2026 at the nearby Finsbury Park.
Finsbury Park Show Details
The upcoming Finsbury Park show will mark a monumental moment for the Leicester-based quartet, as it will be their largest headline gig, accommodating 45,000 fans on July 4th. Tickets go on sale this Friday, September 26th at 9:30 AM, promising an unforgettable lineup featuring Louis Dunford, Razorlight, The K’s, Miles Kane, and Sofy.
Intimate Performance Highlights
In stark contrast to the grand future event, Monday night’s pub show was a cozy gathering for 250 lucky fans. Despite the intimate setting, the atmosphere was electric with mosh pits forming as the band played a compact eight-song set. Frontman Serge Pizzorno humorously contrasted the two events, saying, “That over there [Finsbury Park] will be super professional. This is a bit more thrown together, as it should be.” The night was filled with laughter, especially when Pizzorno amusingly forgot the lyrics to their closing song, 'Fire', requiring a restart.
Kasabian's Career Journey
Since their breakout with the self-titled album in 2004, Kasabian has navigated a tumultuous career, particularly following the departure of original vocalist Tom Meighan in 2020 after a legal issue. However, Pizzorno has taken the reins, leading the band to new heights with two consecutive Number One albums and now gearing up for their biggest show yet.
Upcoming Album
Along with the concert announcement, Kasabian is set to release their ninth album, 'Act III', in spring 2026. The excitement surrounding both the album and the massive gig signifies a thrilling new chapter for the band.
