Boyzone at London’s Emirates Stadium: start time, tickets, potential setlist and what you need to know

When Ronan Keating, Keith Duffy, Mikey Graham, and Shane Lynch took their last bow as Boyzone in 2019 with their ‘Thank You And Goodnight’ farewell tour, well, turns out it wasn’t actually goodnight. 

That’s because, seven years later, the Dublin boys are back for a two-night show in London. ‘One For The Road: Live At Emirates Stadium’ is set to be the boyband’s biggest ever headline show, with capacity for 44,000 fans. 

Put together by Louis Walsh back in 1993, Boyzone’s weighty discography includes 18 top 10 singles and six number ones, with hits like ‘No Matter What’, ‘I Love the Way You Love Me’ and ‘Baby Can I Hold You’. If you’ve got a ticket (or you’re looking for one), here’s everything you need to know.

The boyband’s farewell shows are taking place in north London on Friday 5 and Saturday 6 June 2026.

Setlist

Boyzone has not confirmed an advance setlist for the ‘One For The Road’ tour. However, Ronan Keating told The Sun that fans can expect ‘25 songs on the setlist and only four that weren’t released as singles’. He said: ‘It’s an amazing setlist and purely for the fans. People are flying in from all over the world. It is going to be spectacular.’
