O2 Academy Leicester

Saturday, September 5, 2026 - O2 Academy, Leicester

• Antarctic Monkeys

Antarctic Monkeys return to O2 Academy Leicester on 5 September 2026 with their Arctic Monkeys tribute show, deep into the venue’s late-summer run. The band specialise in closely rendered versions of the Sheffield group’s catalogue, from early indie rock singles to later, moodier cuts, making this date a concentrated hit of guitar-led anthems. Sitting between August’s terrace party and Jamie Webster’s folk-driven headline stop, the gig pushes the schedule firmly back toward sharp riffs and hook-heavy choruses. It is tailored to fans who want the feel of an Arctic Monkeys live set in an Academy-sized room.
