Illegal Eagles 2026 - Hotel California Tour

Illegal Eagles are at The Alban Arena on Sunday 22 November, part of their Hotel California Tour. It's a big one for them — 2026 marks 30 years on the road, and they've built the whole show around the Eagles' most famous album.

The first half is the main event: they play Hotel California in its entirety, from start to finish. That means 'Life in the Fast Lane', 'New Kid in Town' and the title track all in one go, rather than scattered through the night. Once they've run through the album, they open things out into a set of the greatest hits from across the Eagles' back catalogue, so you get the deep cuts from the record and the big ones everyone knows.

They've made their name on the details rather than loose reworkings — close vocal harmonies, detailed guitar work and faithful arrangements. They describe themselves as having a knack for recreating the Eagles' sound, and they've built a reputation for it over three decades of touring. If you're into the way the original records were put together, that's where they focus.

The show starts at 7:30pm at The Alban Arena, Civic Centre, St Albans, AL1 3LD. Tickets were £41.50, with a non-refundable £3.50 transaction fee on top, though the Alban Arena date is now sold out.
