Wolf Alice will return to Exhibition park this Summer

Tuesday, 24 February 2026 22:06

In the Park Newcastle is set for a landmark return to Exhibition Park in summer 2026 with Wolf Alice announced as the latest headliners. One of the most influential and dynamic bands of the past decade, they will take to the stage on Sunday 12th July, closing out the summer concert series in style.

As they round off a huge world tour and what has been an extraordinary year for the seminal British band, which saw the release of their critically acclaimed fourth studio album ‘The Clearing’ in August.   Reaching No.1 in the UK album charts and shortlisted for the coveted Mercury Music Prize for the fourth time, the Brit award winners are the only band in Mercury Prize history to achieve a 100% nomination rate across their discography, further cementing their position in global music culture.    

 

Renowned for their electrifying live performances, Wolf Alice have built a reputation as one of the UK’s most compelling live acts, praised for their restless energy and powerful, coming-of-age anthems, they will be joined on the bill by alternative rock four-piece Keo. 

  

Wolf Alice are the latest act to be announced to the ever-growing line up for In the Park Newcastle 2026, joining previously announced headliners Lewis Capaldi and Paul Weller. The concert series has cemented its position as one of the UK’s premier live music events, bringing world-class talent to the heart of Newcastle for a truly landmark summer moment.
