My Bloody Valentine, Dara Ó Briain and Annika Kilkenny among acts announced for Teenage Cancer Trust shows at the Royal Albert Hall

My Bloody Valentine, Dara Ó Briain and Annika Kilkenny are among the acts announced for the 2026 Teenage Cancer Trust at the Royal Albert Hall concert series, which takes place from March 23 to 29. The line-up was unveiled by guest curator Robert Smith of The Cure.

The annual concert series, which began in 2000, raises funds for Teenage Cancer Trust, the only charity in the UK centred on providing specialist support for teenagers and young adults with cancer.

Cancer remains the leading disease-related cause of death for young people in the UK and Ireland.

Next year's edition will celebrate the 150th Teenage Cancer Trust show at the Royal Albert Hall, marked by the Manic Street Preachers' performance on March 26.

Other acts announced for the series include My Bloody Valentine, who will play on March 27 and will be supported by Glasgow pop duo Chvrches.

Comedian Dara Ó Briain will take to the stage on March 24, with singer-songwriter Annika Kilkenny performing on March 25.

Wolf Alice will close out the week on March 29 with support from Nilüfer Yanya.

"The Royal Albert Hall gigs are pivotal in helping Teenage Cancer Trust change the lives of young people with cancer," said Kate Collins, Chief Executive of Teenage Cancer Trust.

"Here's to an astonishing week of legendary gigs and getting young people with cancer the specialised care and support they need."

Tickets go on sale Friday, December 12, at 9am via TeenageCancerTrust.org.
