Chesney Hawkes recently revealed a full run of UK tour dates for March 2026, marking a major live outing following one of the most eventful years of his career. The tour, in support of his 2025 ‘Living Arrows’ album, includes shows in Bath, Gloucester, Kendal, Glasgow, Leeds, Manchester, London and Exeter, and runs from 5–22 March 2026 and showcase the enduring appeal of the pop-rock singer more than three decades after his breakthrough. 

TotalNtertainment recently sat down and spoke to the pop favourite. Over the course of our interview, Chesney reflected on his 2025, describing it as a year of creative rejuvenation and personal change. After spending many years living in Los Angeles, he and his family made the decision to move back to the UK to be closer to home, a shift he credits with grounding both his personal life and his artistic output.

Chesney Hawkes also looked back on his early years in the music industry. Rising to fame in the 1990s as a teenage popstar with his hit “The One and Only,” he described how early success shaped his approach to music and life, and how those experiences continue to inform his work today.

Looking ahead to festival season in 2026, Hawkes said he’d love to play at some of the UK’s most iconic festivals, particularly those who don‘t necessarily focus on “heritage” acts.
