Duran Duran play their first UK arena show in three years, with support from the psychedelic five-piece Pigeon.
Duran Duran play the First Direct Arena on Saturday 24 October, their first Leeds date in three years. It's part of a full UK arena tour, which sits inside a wider autumn run that takes them across Europe. They're coming off a busy 2025, when they headlined London's BST Hyde Park for the second time, played a Halloween show at Manchester's Co-op Live and were awarded the 'Città di Sanremo' at Italy's Sanremo Festival. This year they're also re-releasing The Wedding Album and Thank You on vinyl.
They've been around for more than four decades now, with over 100 million records sold worldwide and multiple BRIT and Grammy Awards. They're known for their music videos and their place as one of Britain's most influential pop-rock acts, and this tour is their first full UK arena run since 2023.
Support comes from Pigeon, a psychedelic five-piece from the seaside town of Margate. Their debut album, OUTTANATIONAL, is described as a collection of party songs without limits, so they'll be the ones warming up the room before the main set. Between them and Duran Duran, you've got two very different bands on the same bill.
