TAKE THAT are heading to Italy next summer, with the British pop favourites confirmed as headliners for Lucca Summer Festival 2027 on the 20th July!
The band will bring their huge catalogue of pop anthems to the historic Tuscan city as part of their upcoming European tour, adding another major name to a festival that has a long history of attracting some of the biggest artists in the world.
For TAKE THAT, the announcement comes at an exciting point in their story. More than three decades after they first became one of Britain’s biggest pop acts, Gary Barlow, Mark Owen and Howard Donald are showing no signs of slowing down. Their latest chapter sees the trio preparing to release their tenth studio album, Dreamers, while heading back out on the road for a major European tour in 2027.
That means the Lucca crowd should get more than just a trip down memory lane. Alongside the songs that have soundtracked generations of fans, the band are bringing new material from Dreamers, offering a glimpse of where Take That are heading next.
Of course, there will be plenty of opportunities for nostalgia. From “Back for Good” and “Never Forget” to “Shine”, “Patience” and “Rule the World”, the band’s setlist is packed with songs that practically demand a festival-sized singalong.
And then there is the setting. Lucca Summer Festival takes place in the heart of one of Tuscany’s most beautiful historic cities, making a Take That show here feel rather different from a night in a stadium. As the sun goes down over Lucca, thousands of fans gathering for one of Britain’s most enduring pop groups sounds like a pretty
good way to spend a summer evening.
The festival has become known for putting together eclectic line-ups that can move comfortably between pop, rock and everything in between, and Take That fit perfectly into that tradition. Their 2027 appearance also forms part of a busy European summer for the group, who will visit cities across the continent on their Dreamers Tour.
With new music on the way, a major tour ahead and a catalogue filled with some of the biggest British pop songs of the past 30 years, Take That arriving in Lucca feels like one of those festival bookings that should appeal to both longtime fans and anyone simply looking for a huge night of live music.
More details surrounding the Lucca Summer Festival 2027 line-up are expected to follow, but one thing is already clear. If you’re planning a trip to Tuscany next summer, TAKE THAT have just given you another very good reason to put Lucca on the list.
