Global superstar LEWIS CAPALDI will headline a second massive outdoor show in Cardiff next summer due to overwhelming demand.
Lewis’ June 30th show at Blackweir Fields has sold out after fans rushed to secure tickets in today’s pre-sale but the much-loved Scottish singer-songwriter will now headline a second night at Blackweir on Wednesday July 1st.
After unprecedented demand that saw the biggest ever rush for tickets across both pre-sale and general sale, LEWIS CAPALDI is currently blazing through a triumphant 200,000-ticket sold out 17-date UK arena tour – and he shows no sign of slowing down as he announces his biggest ever UK and Irish headline shows for next summer including not one, but now a seconf date at Blackweir Fields on Tuesday June 30th and Wednesday 1st July.

The Blackweir dates are part of a run next summer which will see Lewis headline his biggest ever UK and Irish shows.
Presented in a partnership between DEPOT Live (the live-events arm of Cardiff music venue, DEPOT) and UK promoters Cuffe and Taylor, Blackweir is the new live music hotspot for Cardiff launched in 2025
Nick Saunders, founder of DEPOT Live said:
“To say announcing Lewis Capaldi coming to Blackweir has been popular is an understatement. We have experienced a huge demand for tickets, selling out our June 30th show, so we are delighted Lewis is able to come to Cardiff for a second date on July 1st.
“Lewis is undoubtedly one of the most beloved performers in the UK today. He presents incredible live shows and we now have the pleasure of welcoming him to Cardiff not once, but twice next summer. These are going to be two very special nights.”

The announcement comes during Lewis’s current sold-out 17-date UK arena tour, his first return to touring in two years, and has been sending fans into overdrive, debuting new songs as well as racing through a hit-laden set – serving as a powerful reminder of the connection he commands. The response to the tour has been electric, with critics unanimous in their praise, delivering four and five star reviews across the board, continuing this week with a run of three sold out shows at London’s The O2.
Lewis’s return has already seen him top the charts, bagging a monumental sixth number 1 single with his comeback track Survive, to become the fastest selling single of 2025 and that success has also seen his biggest ever opening week sales for a single, surpassing both Sabrina Carpenter and Lady Gaga for this year’s biggest opening week singles, and he now joins esteemed company with the likes of Beyoncé, Britney Spears, Drake, Lady Gaga and Queen to achieve six UK number 1 singles, beating David Bowie, Katy Perry, The Police and more.
A headliner-sized Pyramid Stage crowd embraced the emotion of Lewis’s return – one of the cultural moments of the year – for a powerful, hit-laden half-hour Glastonbury set. “I just wanted to come and finish what I couldn’t finish last time,” said Lewis. That he emphatically did, with his soaring vocals leading the crowd through classics, as well asa first live showing for Survive, and a unifying performance of Someone You Loved.
Prior to his comeback Lewis played a run of Scottish warm up shows in May that saw him return to the stage as a guest of mental health charity CALM, in celebration of Mental Health Awareness Week. With no pressure, and no level of expectation, the shows allowed Capaldi the space to gauge his comfort and emotional response before returning to the spotlight – a move which ended up proving nothing short of a triumph.
After weathering the kind of storm that few can prepare for, Lewis Capaldi’s return has brought a renewed sense of purpose, proving that even in the darkest moments, there’s still strength in showing up. As he continues to mark a new era, Lewis has returned even stronger, heart wide open, and ready to step out again.
