Santana announce UK shows for summer 2025 – leading up to Glastonbury

Santana have announced some UK headline shows for summer 2025, suggesting that a Glastonbury performance could be on the cards.

The US rock band, fronted by Carlos Santana, are due to play gigs at Glasgow’s OVO Hydro, Manchester’s Co-op Live and London’s O2 next June.

This will follow a run of dates in Europe, and come ahead of further concerts on the continent. These include stops in Budapest, Berlin, Paris, Amsterdam, Vienna and Cologne.

The 2025 ‘Oneness’ tour is set to see Santana “perform high-energy, passion-filled songs from their 50-year career, including fan favourites from ‘Abraxas’ to Woodstock to ‘Supernatural’, and beyond”.

JUNE
18 – OVO Hydro, Glasgow 
19 – Co-op Live, Manchester 
21 – The O2, London 

These newly confirmed shows currently leave Santana available for a potential slot at Glastonbury 2025 on Friday June 27 or Sunday June 29. However, the group do have performances scheduled in Europe on either side of these days.

The only act to have been officially announced for next year’s festival is Rod Stewart, who will play in the Legend Slot. However, Nile Rodgers has since let slip that he and Chic have been booked for a performance on the Pyramid Stage – immediately after Stewart’s set. The first Glastonbury line-up poster usually arrives in March.

Current headliner rumours include Sam Fender, Neil YoungOlivia Rodrigo and Lady Gaga. There has been further speculation about possible performances from the likes of Alanis Morrisette, Deftones and Portishead’s Beth Gibbons.
