In paid partnership with Priority from O2
Squeeze have announced details of a massive 2026 UK arena tour – and if you’re an O2 or Virgin Media broadband customer, you can get Priority Tickets right now here, more than 48 hours ahead of general release.
Kicking off at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro on November 12, 2026, Squeeze’s ‘Tried, Tested And Trixies’ tour will visit Blackpool, Nottingham and Hull before the rock legends headline London’s O2 Arena on November 26.

Squeeze are set to release their new album ‘Trixies’ on March 6, 2026. The band’s first studio album since 2017’s ‘The Knowledge’ is made up of songs the band originally wrote when they were first starting out and follows on from their 50th anniversary celebrations in 2024.

Billy Bragg will be supporting Squeeze throughout the tour. Tickets go on sale November 28 at 9:30am GMT but Priority Tickets are available now here.
“The reaction to the 50th anniversary tour in 2024 was amazing. We have never sounded better and it feels really special to be looking forward to playing the biggest headline shows of our career. And having Billy Bragg on the same bill, what’s not to love!” Squeeze’s Glenn Tilbrook said in a statement.
“It’s going to be amazing to show off songs from our album ‘Trixies’ and, of course, all the hits and some surprises. I’m also excited that Billy Bragg will be joining us for all the shows,” added Chris Difford.
Squeeze will be supporting the charity Trussell, which provides emergency food and support to people who cannot afford the essentials while campaigning for change to end the need for food banks in the UK, throughout the ‘Tried, Tested And Trixies’ tour. Additionally, £1 from every ticket sold will be donated to support grassroots music venues, artists and promoters. “The grassroots is where it all starts for so many musicians and where local communities can access affordable and exciting live music. We need to protect these venues and nurture the artists so that our great culture can thrive for generations to come” explained Tilbrook.
Before their own tour, Squeeze are set to support Madness on their 2025 ‘Hit Parade’ UK arena run which kicks off next month.
