Teenage Cancer Trust Tickets

Teenage Cancer Trust’s historic annual Royal Albert Hall concert series returns for 2025 with another unique line-up at one of the world’s most prestigious venues.

2025 marks the 23nd year of Teenage Cancer Trust’s phenomenally successful flagship events at the Royal Albert Hall, which were started by the charity’s Honorary Patron and lead-singer of The Who, Roger Daltrey CBE.

Some of the biggest names in entertainment have now raised more than £34 million for Teenage Cancer Trust which helps to fund specialist nurses, hospital units and support services right across the UK that help get young people through some unimaginably hard times.

Artists announced for 2025 include some of the biggest UK acts around, including The Who, The Corrs, James Arthur, Frank Carter and Paul Cook, Steve Jones, Glen Matlock of the Sex Pistols, as well as two nights of comedy headed up by Micky Flanagan and GK Barry, who has become a Teenage Cancer Trust ambassador.

Teenage Cancer Trust is the only UK charity dedicated to providing specialised nursing care and support for young people with cancer. Pressures on the NHS are making it harder than ever for young people to get a timely diagnosis and treatment. Cancer waits over 62 days have doubled since before the pandemic, and many young people will face the insecurity of not knowing when they will see a specialist or start their treatment. Meanwhile, young people are also being disproportionately affected by the cost-of-living crisis, as they contend with a combination of high rents, soaring bills, student debt, and falling real term wages.

For young people with cancer, both these issues can cause added anxiety and further impact on their mental health. In such conditions, being able to access the right advice and support at the right time – including emotional and psychological support – is more vital than ever.

Since 2000, over £32 million has been raised by Teenage Cancer Trust concerts at the Royal Albert Hall, and that money has helped fund specialist nurses, hospital units and support services right across the UK that help get young people through some unimaginably hard times.

As ever, the Ultimate Backstage Experience will be run for young people being cared for at Teenage Cancer Trust units around the country.  Every day, these groups will visit the Royal Albert Hall to enjoy an unforgettable experience. From the moment they arrive, they’ll enjoy access and opportunities that money can’t buy, before taking their place in some of the best seats in the house to watch the shows in style.

Kate Collins, Chief Executive of Teenage Cancer Trust, said: “We are delighted that some of the biggest names from across the music, and entertainment industry are performing at this year's Teenage Cancer Trust gigs at the Royal Albert Hall. We couldn’t be more grateful for their commitment to raising vital funds for young people with cancer."

“These concerts, brainchild of – and driven by - the legendary Roger Daltrey since 2000, have raised a phenomenal £34 million to fund Teenage Cancer Trust’s work across the UK – making our specialist support possible across the UK so that young people with cancer get the expert, individual care and support they need at this unique and critical stage of their lives. These gigs would not exist without Roger, who remains a tireless Honorary Patron for the charity and is unstoppable in his support for young people with cancer."

“Teenage Cancer Trust exists because cancer care wasn’t made for young people. Without us, a young person diagnosed with cancer today would find themselves lumped together with small children or much older adults. It’s only thanks to our supporters that we can continue to be there for every young person who needs us. We’re deeply thankful to everyone who is involved in making these concerts possible – from the artists and the teams to the people who buy tickets to the shows."

“This year’s line-up will be an incredible week of live music and comedy that you won’t want to miss. We’re very excited to welcome GK Barry as our newest Teenage Cancer Trust ambassador and we can’t wait to see her headlining the Saturday night gigs.”
