Ronan Keating has declared that it’s ‘not a reunion’ in a major Boyzone update after the band announced a new stadium show.
The legendary Irish group will be coming together for their first performance together since a five-night run at the London Palladium in 2019.
Ronan Keating, Mikey Graham, Keith Duffy and Shane Lynch will take to the stage at Emirates Stadium on June 6, 2026 for One For The Road: Live At Emirates Stadium London.
According to a description for the show, it will be ‘a night to celebrate and party with legions of Boyzone fans from the world over, a chance to play their biggest ever headline show, and, of course, a time to remember their much-loved brother, Stephen Gately’.
Breaking through in the 1990s, Boyzone have sold over 6.4 million in the UK alone and boast six UK No.1 singles, including When The Going Gets Tough and You Needed Me.
The group first broke up in 2000, as their members went on to pursue solo careers, with Ronan experiencing major success as a solo artist.
Boyzone reunited in 2007, two years before Stephen’s death of natural causes at the age of 33 on October 1, 2009, at his holiday home in Majorca.
Despite fans hoping that more venues will be announced in due course, Ronan has shut down any speculation and insisted this is a ‘one-off’ performance.
He said at a press event: “This is not a reunion. We’re not making new music, we’re not getting the band back together to tour the world.
“This is one show – a world exclusive – at the Emirates. If it sells out, maybe it becomes two nights, but that’s it.”
The live show comes after their acclaimed documentary series Boyzone: No Matter What premiered near the beginning of the year.
Ronan said of its response: “We’ve been truly blown away and humbled by the response to the documentary this year.
“The love we’ve felt from fans all over the world has inspired us to create the ultimate experience together, headlining our own stadium show. The four of us can’t wait to stand together again and enjoy One For The Road.”
Pre-sale for the show opens at 9am on Tuesday, October 7. Remaining tickets will go on general sale from 9am on Friday, October 10.
