The Wave Pictures

The indie pop trio The Wave Pictures are making a return trip to Brighton this spring as part of their 'GAINED/LOST tour 2026'. This is the kind of show that usually draws a dedicated crowd of indie and rock fans looking for a more personal gig experience. This visit is timed perfectly with the release of their new album, Gained / Lost, which is scheduled to drop just before the gig on February 27th. It’s always interesting when a band tours right after a release, giving fans a chance to hear the new material live almost immediately.

Beyond the new tracks, the band has also confirmed they will be dipping into songs from their album Look Inside Your Heart, a record that reportedly focuses on themes of friendship and general happiness. They have a solid reputation for putting on intimate, high-quality shows, especially in smaller venues, which usually makes for a memorable night out in the city.

If you’re planning on catching them, the gig is set for Friday, March 6, 2026. Make sure you note the date, as some initial listings had a different month. Doors are scheduled to open at 7:00 PM (19:00). The location for the evening is Dust, Brighton, situated right on 77 East Street (BN1 1NF). They won't be taking the stage alone; the show will also feature the artist Turner Cody as the support act.

For those interested in the logistics, the standard ticket price is £22.50, which includes fees. However, here is the essential piece of information if you are trying to secure a spot: as of the end of January 2026, tickets for this specific show are currently listed as unavailable. If you were hoping to go, your best course of action would be to check directly with the venue, Dust, or look into joining any available waiting lists, as sometimes availability shifts closer to the performance date.
