Take That at Glasgow’s Hampden Park Stadium: start time, last-minute tickets, potential setlist and what you need to know

One of the biggest tours of the year is officially underway. Take That’s The Circus Live 2026 Tour kicked off in Southampton in May and will see the legendary boyband play well over a dozen stadium dates in the UK this summer. This week it’s Glasgow’s turn, with Gary Barlow, Howard Donald and Mark Owen set for two shows at Hampden Park.

The Circus Live Summer 2026 sees the return of Take That’s blockbuster 2009 tour, which marked the release of their chart-topping fifth studio album The Circus. The OG tour was at the time the fastest-selling tour in history and its 2026 edition will bring back the same setlist and same spectacular production.

Off to see Gary, Howard and Mark at Hampden this week? Here’s Time Out’s ultimate guide to the shows, from the doors and setlist to any remaining ticket availability.
