Kanye West is back, and he’s going big. 

The 48-year-old rapper, who has been largely absent from UK stages, will headline all three nights of Wireless Festival 2026 at London’s Finsbury Park from July 10 to 12. 

It marks his first London headline slot since his unforgettable and controversial 2014 Wireless performance.

Festival organisers, with Pepsi MAX on board as the main sponsor, have confirmed that Ye will take the main stage each night, with more acts yet to be announced. 

Presale tickets go live at 12pm BST on April 7, while general sale follows at 12pm BST on April 8 via wirelessfestival.co.uk. 

Runaway hitmaker is hoping the shows will help repair his relationship with UK fans after years of polarising headlines over his political views and public controversies. 

A source told The Sun: “He has apologised profusely for his behaviour over the last few years and he wants a fresh start. 

He’s really excited to get back on stage in London.”

Ye’s last Wireless appearance came in 2014 when he replaced an ailing Drake for headline sets in London and Birmingham. 

While his London show included a lengthy on-stage rant that made global headlines, his Birmingham gig wowed the crowd with high energy and production values.

Fans can also look forward to hearing tracks from his latest album, Bully, which has already generated huge buzz ahead of the festival. 

With a decade-long wait finally over, Ye’s return promises fireworks, whether fans are ready for the drama or just the music.
