U2 Tickets 2027: General Sale Fri., Nov. 6 at 10 a.m. UK Time, Presale Starts Mon., Nov. 2

U2’s general sale for the 2027 UK and Europe dates of The Greatest Show On Earth World Tour is Friday, Nov. 6, 2026 at 10 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time (GMT), 5 a.m. Eastern Time (ET), according to U2.com. The band announced the dates on Oct. 29, 2026 under the name “Carnaval De Luz presents: The Greatest Show On Earth World Tour.” A subscriber presale starts four days earlier, on Monday, Nov. 2.

The catch is in the Artist Presale. U2.com says you must sign up by Sunday, Nov. 1 at 10:59 p.m. GMT, which is before any sale begins, and the Lisbon date is not part of that presale. US clocks go back on Nov. 1, so GMT is 5 hours ahead of ET for the whole sale week. A one-page timeline is in the downloads.

The GMT, ET and CET conversions are our calculation. U2.com gives the Visa and Artist Presale times as local time: 10 a.m. in the United Kingdom (UK) is 10 a.m. GMT, and 10 a.m. in Paris, Amsterdam, Berlin, Milan or Stockholm is 10 a.m. CET. Lisbon is on Western European Time (WET), which matches GMT, so 10 a.m. there is also 10 a.m. GMT. For US readers, 10 a.m. GMT is 5 a.m. ET and 10 a.m. CET is 4 a.m. ET.

Who can use the U2 presales?

• Subscriber presale. It starts Monday, Nov. 2 at 10 a.m. GMT for U2.com subscribers. The Feedback Group enters on the Monday and The Hype Group on Tuesday. Subscribers are emailed a unique presale code in advance, and new subscribers join The Hype Group with access on day two, U2.com says.
• Visa cardholders. They have presale access in the European Union (EU) and UK from Wednesday, Nov. 4 at 10 a.m. local time until 10 p.m. the same day, while supply lasts.
• Artist Presale. It runs Thursday, Nov. 5 at 10 a.m. local time. Anyone who signs up by Sunday, Nov. 1 at 10:59 p.m. GMT (11:59 p.m. CET) can join. On Ticketmaster no code is needed because access is tied to your account; sales hosted on other sites may need a code. Some fans may be asked for a selfie check or, in rare cases, an ID via Persona.

The dates and venues come from U2.com; the weekdays are our calculation. The tour opens in Stockholm on April 26 with Wolf Alice in support. U2.com says dates for Spain will be announced soon. The London shows fall on the weekend of Friday, June 18 and Saturday, June 19, 2027; mark them on the June 2027 printable calendar. General sale on Nov. 6 comes 224 days before the London opener (our calculation).

Is this the first U2 UK stadium show in years?

U2.com’s tour archive lists Twickenham Stadium in London on 8 July 2017 as the band’s last UK stadium date on the Joshua Tree Tour 2017. We have not checked for other UK shows since, so we make no claim beyond the archive.

What are the ticket limits and prices?

Ticketmaster’s article of Oct. 29, 2026 says there is a limit of 4 tickets per show. U2.com’s announcement, as we read it, does not state a limit. No ticket prices have been announced in the sources we read, so this story does not quote any.

What is still to be announced?

U2.com says 2027 dates for North America are set to be announced in the coming weeks, and Spain dates are coming soon. The Edge says the band will be “wrapping it up in Ireland,” with plans for the tour already in the works for 2028; no Irish date is announced. A Latin America leg for 2027 with support from Beck also exists, and its Mexico City shows have sold out, according to U2.com.
