Placebo at the OVO Arena: A Saturday Shared with England Women v Ukraine at the Stadium

What it is. Placebo mark 30 years since their debut album with the Placebo 30th Anniversary Tour, which reaches OVO Arena Wembley on Saturday 5 December 2026. The Hunger support.

The setlist. The Arena's page says the shows cover songs from the first two albums, Placebo and Without You I'm Nothing, some not played live in more than 20 years.

The tour. It is a 36-date UK and European arena run that starts in Portugal and ends in the UK.

The reworked album. Placebo RE:CREATED came out on 19 June 2026, with all ten original tracks and two bonus tracks, including Nancy Boy and 36 Degrees. The band calls it a director's cut.

Times. The Arena has not published doors, start or finish.

Football at the stadium the same day. England Women v Ukraine kicks off at Wembley Stadium at 17:30 on the 5th. With the Arena's times still unpublished, the overlap between the match and the concert is not yet known.
