Westlife 25: The Anniversary World Tour — Your City-by-City UK Parking Guide
Twenty-five years, fourteen UK number ones, and one arena tour with no support act needed — Westlife's biggest run since reuniting rolls through twelve UK cities this autumn.
Westlife UK Tour 2026: Parking Guide for Every Tour Date
Westlife's 25: The Anniversary World Tour is already under way, and the UK leg is packed tight from late September through to Halloween. With multi-night residencies in London, Birmingham, Cardiff, Manchester and a five-night send-off in Belfast, parking near these arenas is going to be scarce on show nights — get your space sorted before you're circling side streets at 6.45pm.
The confirmed UK arena dates:
Tuesday 29 September – Aberdeen, P&J Live
Wednesday 30 September & Thursday 1 October – Glasgow, OVO Hydro
Saturday 3 & Sunday 4 October – Newcastle, Utilita Arena
Tuesday 6 October – Leeds, First Direct Arena
Wednesday 7 October – Sheffield, Utilita Arena
Friday 9 – Sunday 11 October – London, The O2
Tuesday 13 October – Brighton, Brighton Centre
Wednesday 14 October – Bournemouth, Bournemouth International Centre (BIC)

Monday 19 & Tuesday 20 October – Cardiff, Utilita Arena
Friday 23 – Sunday 25 October – Manchester, Co-op Live
Tuesday 27 – Saturday 31 October – Belfast, SSE Arena
Extra dates have already been added in Sheffield and Aberdeen for early November, and Belfast has picked up two further nights — a sign of just how fast these have been selling.
Tickets went on general sale last autumn, priced roughly £59–£133 depending on category, so if your date isn't sold out, book both ticket and parking sooner rather than later.
