O2 Academy Islington November Live Music
Friday, November 20, 2026 - O2 Academy Islington, London
Moving Pictures (A Tribute To The Music Of Rush) close O2 Academy Islington’s November 2026 run on 20 November, turning the focus to progressive rock. Their set draws on Rush’s intricate arrangements and extended compositions, a contrast to the indie punch of Antarctic Monkeys’ shows the previous weekend and the metal‑leaning dates earlier in the month. With the Academy’s production geared for detail as well as volume, the band can lean into shifting time signatures, textured keyboards and soaring guitar work, rounding off a month that has moved through several shades of heavy and guitar‑based music.
