Robbie Williams will play a special show at Manchester’s Aviva Studios as part of BRITs Week 2026 in support of his latest, chart-topping album ‘BRITPOP’.
The ‘Rocket’ singer will take to the stage at Manchester’s Aviva Studios on February 27 for a “mega set” featuring tracks from his his latest LP, along with cuts from his debut solo album ‘Life Thru A Lens’.
He’ll be joined by chart toppers, The Lottery Winners, as support.
All proceeds from the show go towards War Child’s essential work providing aid, education, specialist mental health support and more, while standing up for the rights of children whose lives have been devastatingly affected by war.
Clare Sanders-Wright, Head of Live Music at War Child, said; “Our BRITs Week 2026 shows kick off this week and all of us at War Child couldn’t be more grateful to everyone involved in making them happen, from the artists and their teams to the venues, partners like DHL, and everyone else behind the scenes.
“To add another headline show with Robbie Williams is incredible, and we’re sure fans are just as excited as we are.
“520 million children around the world are living through conflict right now. In Gaza, more than 20,000 children have been killed with over a million left traumatised. In Sudan, a child every 10 seconds is forced to flee their home due to the war.
“But thanks to the money raised from shows like this, War Child is able to provide vital support protecting, educating and standing up for as many of these children as possible.”
The show is one of several taking place in cities such as Newcastle, London, Edinburgh, Nottingham and Brighton in the lead-up to the BRIT Awards on Saturday, February 28 at Manchester’s Co-Op Live, marking the first time the ceremony has taken place outside of London.
Olivia Dean and Lola Young lead the nominations for this year’s BRITs with five nods apiece, while Sam Fender is up for four awards and Lily Allen, Dave, Fred again.. and Jim Legxacy each receive three nominations.
