Biffy Clyro bring The Futique Tour to the heart of Birmingham

The Scottish rock trio Biffy Clyro returns to the Utilita Arena Birmingham on January 16, 2026, with The Futique Tour and one of the most resonant rock programs that British venues will see in the coming year. The concert begins at 19:00, and tickets are valid exclusively for that evening, so Friday, January 16, will be the day fans need to mark in their calendars. Along with Biffy Clyro come guests Soft Play and The Armed, turning the evening into a mini festival of alternative and punk under one roof, in a hall with a capacity of nearly sixteen thousand people. The atmosphere that Biffy Clyro create live, with choruses that thousands of throats sing in unison and explosive transitions from silence to a wall of sound, comes to the fore especially in arenas like this, where every chorus echoes like a stadium anthem. That is precisely why interest in tickets is high, and it is understandable that many want to secure their place in the stands or on the floor in time. If you already know that you want to be part of this evening, do not wait for the last moment – secure your tickets for this event immediately and prepare for an evening in which Birmingham will echo with guitars, drums, and loud singalong choruses.

Three decades of career and new musical chapters

Over nearly three decades, Biffy Clyro have grown from the Scottish underground into one of the key British rock bands of their generation, with ten studio albums and a series of singles that have crept into the collective memory of the audience. The path from early albums like Blackened Sky and The Vertigo of Bliss, through turning points Puzzle and Only Revolutions, to the success of Opposites and A Celebration of Endings has turned them from a club phenomenon into headliners of major festivals and arena tours. The new album Futique from 2025 brings a fresh yet recognizable sound – layered guitars, sudden changes in dynamics, and emotional lyrics that in songs transition from intimacy to almost anthemic choruses. At the concert in Birmingham, the audience can expect a combination of new material and proven favorites, from Many of Horror and Mountains to Wolves of Winter and Tiny Indoor Fireworks, whereby precisely that mixture of new and old is the reason why their performances feel simultaneously exciting and familiar. For many fans, this concert will be an opportunity to hear new songs live already in the first months after the album's release, which further increases interest in tickets and motivates the audience not to leave the ticket purchase for later.

Emotion, energy, and the story behind the stage

What makes Biffy Clyro special on stage is not just the setlist, but also the way the trio builds emotional tension – from a quiet, almost whispered opening verse to an explosive chorus that brings the whole hall to its feet. Simon Neil often guides the audience through songs with sincere announcements and short stories about the creation of individual pieces, while the rhythm section of the Johnston brothers further underlines every transition and explosion of energy. Ahead of The Futique Tour, the band openly spoke about personal challenges and mental health, including the temporary withdrawal of bassist James Johnston from part of the touring duties, with the announcement that long-time collaborator Naomi MacLeod would step in on stage. That openness and vulnerability only reinforce the impression that the audience is not watching just a perfectly rehearsed rock machine, but a band of flesh and blood that turns its struggles and victories into music. In an arena like the Utilita Arena, where lights, projections, and sound emphasize every moment, that sense of community between the band and the audience comes to the fore even more strongly. Precisely for this reason, many fans plan a trip to Birmingham from different parts of the United Kingdom and Europe, aware that such moments do not repeat often and that tickets for such a concert are worth much more than just entry into the hall.

Guests of the evening: Soft Play and The Armed as the perfect overture

Special weight is given to the concert in Birmingham by an impressive line-up of guests: before Biffy Clyro, Soft Play and The Armed will take the stage, each with their own special signature within the punk and hardcore spectrum. Soft Play, an English punk rock duo that was known for years under the name Slaves, is recognizable for a minimalist but extremely energetic lineup, in which drums and guitar sound as if they have an entire orchestra behind them. Their performances combine raw riffs, raspy vocals, and short, explosive songs that often build the atmosphere of small club chaos in a few minutes, even in large halls. The Armed, a collective from Detroit, bring a more radical, experimental approach to hardcore, with a dense wall of guitars, multiple vocalists, and unpredictable stage energy that blurs the boundary between concert and performance. Together, these two bands create a dense and tense overture before the main stars of the evening come out, so it pays to arrive earlier, enter the hall on time, and make the most of the tickets, from the first chord of the first band to the last chorus of Biffy Clyro.

The intensity that these bands bring to the stage means that atmospheres during the evening will change in layers – from fierce punk bursts to large, almost anthemic choruses of the main band. Soft Play often turns their performances into a direct dialogue with the audience, with humor and spontaneous communication, while The Armed build almost cinematic tension through light, sound, and constant rhythm changes. When you add the recognizable sound of Biffy Clyro to all that, you get a concert evening that functions as a rounded story, and not just a series of played songs. Due to such a designed program, interest in tickets grows further, because by purchasing one ticket you actually get three strong and stylistically different performances. Tickets for this concert disappear quickly, so buy tickets on time and take the opportunity to turn one evening in January into the highlight of the concert season. Whoever likes guitar-driven sound, the energy of pits, and collective singing of choruses, will get exactly what they are looking for in Birmingham on January 16, but also more than that.

Utilita Arena Birmingham – a hall created for great rock spectacles

Utilita Arena Birmingham is one of the busiest large venues in the United Kingdom, located right next to the canals and the modern Brindleyplace complex, a few minutes' walk from the inner city center. Opened in the early nineties, the hall has undergone a major reconstruction through which it gained a contemporary glass facade, spacious entrance halls, and a flexible internal layout, so today it can host up to about 15,800 visitors at the largest concerts. Through its corridors and stage have passed the biggest names in music, sports, and entertainment, and numerous fans remember it for loud rock concerts, top pop productions, and world-class sports events. For Biffy Clyro and The Futique Tour, the choice of such an arena is a logical move: the band is big enough to fill a hall of such capacity, and their music is exactly the kind that seeks a space in which choruses and guitars can echo freely. For visitors, this means that tickets do not only bring the right of entry, but also the experience of concert production at the highest level, from the sound system and lighting to large screens on which every detail of the performance comes to the fore even to those in the highest stands.The interior of the hall is designed to provide fans with different ways of experiencing the concert: the standing floor for those who want to be as close to the stage as possible and feel every bass note under their feet, and stands for visitors who prefer somewhat more comfortable viewing, with a clear view of the entire stage and light show. In the immediate vicinity, there are parking lots, and the hall is easy to reach by city trains, trams, and buses from different parts of Birmingham and the surrounding area. All this facilitates the planning of the evening, especially if you come to the city earlier to walk along the canals or eat something before the concert. Many visitors decide to stay overnight in the city, and accommodation near the venue is especially practical for those who do not want to rush for the last evening trains or return home after midnight. When we add to this the recommendation that you enter the hall earlier due to security checks and crowds at the entrances, it becomes clear that buying tickets is just the first step, and planning the arrival is part of the excitement that accompanies such a large concert. Buy tickets via the button below and plan the entire experience, from arrival in front of the hall to the last encore.

Birmingham – city of canals, industrial heritage, and vibrant musical rhythm

Birmingham is the second-largest city in the United Kingdom and a place that has been building an identity for decades on the junction of an industrial past and a contemporary creative scene. Its network of canals, often compared to that in Venice, is today surrounded by restaurants, bars, galleries, and cultural spaces, so many visitors begin their stay in the city precisely with a walk by the water. Near the Utilita Arena is Brindleyplace, a modernly arranged quarter with a series of terraces, cafes, and places for pre-concert socializing, while the center offers recognizable shopping and entertainment zones like the Bullring complex. The city is also known for a diverse gastronomic scene, from curry houses in the Balti Triangle quarter to craft breweries and modern bistros, so many combine the Biffy Clyro concert with a weekend trip or a short city break. If you plan to stay more than one evening, accommodation offers in Birmingham allow you to turn concert tickets into the central part of a small trip on which you will discover both the urban side of the city and its historical background. Such a combination of musical experience and city exploration is especially attractive to visitors coming from other parts of Europe, because in one trip they get both a top concert and a new tourist experience.

Thanks to good transport connections, Birmingham is relatively easy to reach by train, car, or plane, considering that the international airport offers numerous routes to European destinations. Many fans coming to the concert plan arrival a day earlier or staying a day later, in order to visit city sights, museums, and galleries in peace, but also to enjoy the evening life that concentrates precisely around the canals and the wider center. A walk by the water before the concert, dinner with a view of illuminated bridges, and then departure towards the Utilita Arena create the impression of a complete experience, and not just a visit to one hall. In such a scenario, tickets for the concert become a key part of a wider travel plan, because around the date of January 16, 2026, you can put together an entire extended weekend. For those who want to avoid returning the same evening, accommodation for event visitors offers additional security and flexibility, allowing you to return to the hotel without rushing after the concert, and continue exploring the city the next morning. Ultimately, tickets for Biffy Clyro in Birmingham are not just access to the hall, but also a ticket to a wider experience of the city that has been profiling itself in recent years as one of the most vibrant urban centers in England.

What you can expect from the concert evening

On the day of the concert, the doors of the hall generally open early enough for visitors to find their seats, complete security checks, and visit stands with drinks and souvenirs before the first band comes out. Soft Play will almost certainly open the evening with a short but intense set that relies on noisy riffs and rhythms that mix punk and rock energy, while The Armed will additionally raise adrenaline with their dense, experimental sound and stage surprises. After their performances follows the preparation of the stage for Biffy Clyro, and the moment when the lights go out and the first note echoes through the arena is one of those that the audience remembers for a long time. The setlist on The Futique Tour will likely connect new songs from the album Futique with long-time favorites, building an arc from introspective moments to explosive finales in which choruses echo through the hall that the audience sings louder than the sound system. With large production, light effects, and projections that follow the dynamics of the songs, every chorus becomes a shared moment, and turns tickets into a memory that will live in stories and recordings from mobile phones long after the concert.

Practical tips for buying tickets and planning arrival

When thinking about buying tickets, first consider what kind of experience you want: if you dream of being in the front row, feeling the heat of the spotlights and the energy of the pits, then the standing floor is the logical choice; if, on the other hand, you prefer an overview of the stage, the light show, and the audience, the stands will provide you with more comfortable viewing and a clear perspective of the whole hall. The ticket is valid for one day, specifically for the evening of January 16, 2026, which means that that date needs to be coordinated with travel, accommodation, and other obligations. It is advisable to keep the purchase confirmation and digital tickets on your mobile phone, with a full battery and a ready QR code, so that entry at control points passes as quickly as possible. Due to high interest, it is good to count on the possibility that attractive sectors and the most sought-after categories of tickets sell out before others, so it is worth thinking about the purchase in advance. Tickets for this concert disappear quickly, so buy tickets on time, click on the button below when it is enabled for you, and secure your place in the hall that will resonate with guitars, drums, and thousands of voices singing Biffy Clyro choruses together in mid-January.

Culture & events desk

The editorial team for arts, music and events brings together journalists and volunteers who have spent years living alongside stages, clubs, festivals and all those spaces where art and audience meet. Our writing comes from long-standing journalistic experience and genuine involvement in cultural life: from endless evenings in concert halls, from conversations with musicians before and after performances, from improvised press corners at festivals, from premieres that end with long discussions in theatre corridors, but also from small, intimate events that attract only a handful of curious people yet remain engraved in their memory for a lifetime.

In our newsroom write people who know what a stage looks like when the lights go out, how the audience breathes while waiting for the first note, and what happens behind the curtain while instruments or microphones are still being adjusted. Many of us have spent years standing on stage ourselves, participating in programme organisation, volunteering at festivals or helping artist friends present their projects. This experience from both sides of the stage gives us the ability to view events not merely as items in a calendar, but as living encounters between creators and audiences.

Our stories do not stop at who performed and how many people attended. We are interested in the processes that precede every appearance before the public: how the idea for a concert or festival is born, what it takes for a comedy to reach its audience, how much time is spent preparing an exhibition or a multimedia project. In our texts we try to convey the atmosphere of the space, the energy of the performers and the mood of the audience, as well as the context in which all this happens – why a certain performance is important, how it fits into the broader music or art scene, and what remains after the venue empties.

The editorial team for arts, music and events builds its credibility on persistence and long-term work. Behind us are decades of writing, editing, talking with artists and observing how scenes change, how some styles come to the forefront while others retreat into the background. This experience helps us distinguish fleeting hype from events that truly push boundaries and leave a mark. When we give something space, we strive to explain why we believe it deserves attention, and when we are critical, we explain our reasons, aware of the effort behind every project.

Our task is simple and demanding at the same time: to be reliable witnesses of cultural and entertainment life, to write honestly toward the audience and honestly toward performers. We do not deal in generic praise; we aim to precisely describe what we see and hear, knowing that every text may be someone’s first encounter with a certain band, festival, comedian or artist. The editorial team for arts, music and events therefore exists as a place where all these encounters are recorded, interpreted and passed on – humanly, clearly and with respect for the very reason it exists at all: the live, real event in front of a real audience.
