Mariah Carey Announces The Firefly Tour — And Yes, She’s Coming To The UK Three Times
Lambs, assemble — the lambily’s finest hour has arrived. Mariah Carey has announced nine European festival dates for summer 2027, collectively christened the Firefly tour, and the UK leg alone is genuinely glorious.
“Lambs!! Join me next summer on the Firefly tour!! Excited to see all of you in Europe!” Mimi herself wrote — and with three — count them, THREE — British stops on the schedule, she clearly means it.
Here’s everywhere you can catch her, so you can start planning your summer accordingly:
- 24 June — Molleparken, Sonderborg, Denmark
- 27 June — Powderham Castle Grounds, Exeter, UK
- 29 June — Cardiff Castle, Cardiff, UK
- 1 July — Blenheim Palace Grounds, Oxfordshire, UK
- 3 July — Scarborough Open Air Theatre, Scarborough, UK
- 8 July — Jazz Open Stuttgart, Stuttgart, Germany
- 11 July — Lucca Summer Festival, Lucca, Italy
- 14 July — Francofolies De Spa, Spa, Belgium
- 20 July — Moon & Stars Festival, Locarno, Switzerland
Castle courtyards! Palace grounds! Seaside amphitheatres! Someone in the tour-planning department understood the assignment — these are, without question, the most atmospherically dramatic venues Mariah could possibly grace.
The all-important ticket info: general sale kicks off this Friday, 13 November at 9am via Ticketmaster and each venue’s own website. Yes, that’s a Friday the 13th — set an alarm and consider it a lucky omen.
The 57-year-old icon has been busy elsewhere, too — she recently kicked off the festive season early with a new Gucci campaign film, because when you’re the Queen of Christmas, the season starts whenever you say it does.
