2 min read
Swedish duo First Aid Kit return to London this September for a very special one-night-only performance at the Royal Albert Hall on Tuesday 29th September 2026. After two years off the road, the band will take to the iconic stage accompanied by a sixty five piece symphony orchestra.
For this unique show, First Aid Kit will perform their breakthrough album Stay Gold in full for the first half of the evening. The second half will feature a selection of favourite songs, old and new. This marks the band’s second time playing the storied venue, the last time was in 2014 in support of “Stay Gold”.
Joining them will be the Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra, with arranger Erik Arvinder conducting. This special performance will see the duo’s songs reimagined on a grand symphonic scale, bringing together their signature harmonies with the sound of a full orchestra all set within the unique surroundings of the Royal Albert Hall for what will be their only UK show of the year.
First Aid Kit said: “We’re thrilled to announce that we’re playing a very special show at Royal Albert Hall on 29th September. We’ll be joined by the incredible Gothenburg Symphony Orchestra, performing Stay Gold in its entirety for the first half of the evening. The second half will be a mix of our favourite songs, old and new. This truly feels like a dream come true. Just thinking about this night makes us teary-eyed. It will be our only UK show this year, so make sure to get your tickets. We can’t wait to share this with you.”
