R&B star Khalid returns to Manchester on his first European tour since 2019, performing hits from his album 'After The Sun Goes Down'.
Khalid is back in Manchester on Friday 16 October, playing Aviva Studios as part of his It's Always Summer Somewhere Tour. It's his first European tour since 2019, and this is the UK leg following a big run across North America.
The set draws on the diamond-certified hits that made him a global R&B star, alongside tracks from his latest synth-washed album, After The Sun Goes Down. If you've followed him since the early days, those breakout songs will be there; if you're coming in through the newer material, you'll hear that too. The two sit side by side rather than one taking over the other.
It's a headline show, so it's just Khalid on the bill. He's touring the new record, After The Sun Goes Down, and the set leans on it without dropping the older songs. The tour title, It's Always Summer Somewhere, carries through the run, and this is one of the dates on the UK stretch.
