Nerina Pallot announces Royal Albert Hall headline show and Best Of album to mark 25 years

Critically acclaimed singer-songwriter Nerina Pallot will headline the Royal Albert Hall on Sunday 31 May 2026, in celebration of 25 years since the release of her debut album Dear Frustrated Superstar on Polydor Records in 2001.

Promoted by Live Nation, this will be the biggest solo show of her career — a one-night-only event in one of the world’s most iconic venues.

Ticket presales will begin Wednesday 17 September at 12pmlocal time, with general on sale following on Friday 19 September at 12pm via LiveNation.co.uk

Coinciding with the performance, Chrysalis Records will release a career-spanning Best Of album, drawing from Pallot’s eight studio albums and a catalogue that has earned her both critical acclaim and a fiercely loyal fanbase.

“The Royal Albert Hall is one of the most beautiful venues in the world. To be playing there, twenty-five years after I released my first record, is something I never imagined. I want this night to be a thank you to everyone who’s been on the journey with me — and a celebration of the songs that brought us here.”

— Nerina Pallot
From the breakout success of Fires in the mid-2000s — with Top 40 hits and Brit and Ivor Novello nominations — to collaborations with artists such as Kylie Minogue, Pallot’s career has been anything but ordinary. And yet, she has remained a resolutely independent voice in British music, telling stories that speak to the beauty and heartbreak of everyday life.

Her most recent album, A Psalm for Emily Salvi, is one of her most personal works to date — a reminder that Pallot’s music continues to evolve while staying grounded in emotional truth.

Whether you’ve followed her journey from the start or are discovering her for the first time, the Royal Albert Hall show will be a rare chance to experience the full depth of her songwriting in a setting worthy of the occasion.

Nerina Pallot — Best Of will be released in May 2026 on Chrysalis Records across digital, CD, and vinyl formats.
