Neil Young is opening the UK and European leg of his Love Earth World Tour in Manchester on Friday 19 June 2026, joined by The Chrome Hearts for a rare outdoor show that brings one of music’s most enduring voices to Heaton Park.
It’s a rare chance to see one of music’s most influential and fiercely individual artists in one of the city’s most iconic green spaces. Young’s long, uncompromising career spans more than five decades — from the raw power of Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere, to the quiet heartbreak of Harvest, to the live force of Rust Never Sleeps and beyond. Hearing those songs spill out across Heaton Park at the start of summer feels like a moment in itself.
The Chrome Hearts — Spooner Oldham on keys, Micah Nelson on guitar and vocals, Corey McCormick on bass and vocals, and Anthony LoGerfo on drums — join Young on a run that will take them across England, Scotland, Ireland, Wales, France, The Netherlands, Belgium, Switzerland and Italy. But Manchester gets the first night.

Tickets go live through an exclusive 48-hour presale for Neil Young Archives members from 9am on Monday 24 November. General sale follows at 9am on Friday 28 November.
