Justin Bieber 'in talks' for UK festival comeback in 2026
It has been claimed that Justin Bieber could perform at a festival in the UK for the first time since 2017.
Justin Bieber is reportedly in talks to perform at a UK festival - nine years after his last show.
It has been claimed that the 31-year-old singer could play his hits to fans at London's British Summer Time (BST) Hyde Park - the same location where he appeared in front of 65,000 fans in 2017.
A source told The Sun newspaper's bizarre column: "His team are very keen not to overload him. But finally, bosses think they will be able to entice him back. It’s been a long time coming."
The insider also claims organisers would love the Sorry hitmaker to sign up for BST Hyde Park's new sister gig, Roundhay Festival, which takes place in Leeds.
In December 2021, Justin headlined Capital’s Jingle Bell Ball at London's The O2 arena, and in 2023, he was forced to cancel the UK leg of his Justice World Tour at the same venue because of facial paralysis.
In April, Justin is set to headline Coachella - the annual music and arts festival held at the Empire Polo Club in Indio, California - on April 11 and April 18.
Towards the end of October 2025, the Baby singer joined Twitch and treated his followers to behind-the-scenes videos from a studio where he and his team are putting together his set for the festival.
A source close to Justin told People: "Justin’s Twitch is his way of letting fans see that he’s excited and working hard for his headlining set at Coachella."
Also, that month, Justin recently said that he finds the idea of touring “super daunting”, and would find it challenging leaving behind his 29-year-old wife, model Hailey Bieber, and their 17-month-old son, Jack Blues.
During a Twitch stream on Halloween (31.10.25), Justin admitted: "Touring takes so much out of you, and I’ve done it since I was a kid.
"Even the idea of touring sounds super daunting.
"I always start out really loving it, and then it gets to a point where I am super burnt out."
However, Justin wants to choose a location where he can perform for two nights.
The two-time Grammy Award-winner said: "I really wanna do spot-date where I pick a city and do a couple of shows and not commit to a whole two years."
