UB40 featuring Ali Cambell announce Australian shows

The unmistakable voice behind UB40’s biggest hits is returning to Australia next summer as part of their Big Love World Tour.  UB40 featuring Ali Campbell will bring some reggae cheer back to our shores as he takes the latest incarnation of his extraordinary band to Australia in January 2026.

 

Fuelled by the anthems that powered UB40 to 70 million record sales, UB40 featuring Ali Campbell is the reggae and pop collective responsible for serving up hits including Red Red Wine, (I can’t Help) Falling In Love With You and Kingston Town to name a few.  Formed in the 70s, the band has impressively scored 50 singles in the UK charts throughout its expansive career, not to mention enormous success and acclaim on a global scale including right here in Australia. 

 

UB40 featuring Ali Campbell will unleash a formidable live set that contains material spanning over four decades.  In remaining true to the authentic reggae spirit that kick-started his music career in the late 1970s, the lead singer brings the band’s legendary catalogue back to life.  Backed by a powerhouse nine-piece touring ensemble and fresh off major stages worldwide, Ali’s band is widely regarded as “the most authentic realisation of UB40’s original aim of advancing reggae in all its guises.”

 

Their legend continues, as UB40 featuring Ali Campbell remain a show-stopping headline act, not to be missed in Summer 2026. With support from The Bamboos, Drax Project, and Drea. Expect reggae classics and funk grooves all in one massive night.
