Lottery Winners have confirmed the biggest headline performance of their career to date — a monumental hometown stadium show at Leigh Sports Village Stadium, Greater Manchester, taking place on 30th May 2026.
A Venue Steeped in Sporting Legacy
Leigh Sports Village isn’t just any venue. It is home to professional rugby league team Leigh Leopards, as well as the base for Manchester United Women’s team and the club’s men’s Under-21 and Academy sides. Hosting a hometown music event of this scale at such a landmark sporting venue highlights the scale of the achievement for the band.
A Star-Studded Line-Up
The one-off event will see the Leigh four-piece joined by an impressive bill of friends and collaborators. Frank Turner and Reverend & The Makers are already announced as special guests, with even more names to be revealed in the coming months.
Support across the day comes from Scouting for Girls, rising indie favourites The Lilacs, and a late-night DJ set from Katie Owen, promising an unmissable celebration of music from start to finish.
Tickets and On-Sale Dates
Fans eager to secure their spot can access the presale from Wednesday 24th September at 10am, while general sale begins on Friday 26th September at 10am. With demand expected to be high for the band’s biggest show ever, tickets are anticipated to sell fast.
Thom Rylance Reflects on a Milestone
Frontman Thom Rylance described the stadium headline moment as a career-defining achievement:
“Leigh Sports Village isn’t just another show for us, it’s a marker of everything we’ve worked for. From loading gear into pubs to travelling the world, every step has led here. To headline a stadium at home is rare, and we don’t take that lightly. This night will stand as proof of what’s possible when you keep on keeping on.
“Headlining Leigh Sports Village is special in itself but doing it here in our hometown – surrounded by the people who’ve supported us from the very start – makes it truly unforgettable. The fact that we get to welcome legends and friends like Frank Turner, Reverend and the Makers and Scouting for Girls to our town feels incredible. It’s Leigh opening its doors to the world, and we’re proud to be the ones hosting.”
A Defining Moment for the Band
The Leigh show marks another huge step in the Lottery Winners’ rapid rise from grassroots beginnings to nationwide recognition. Having built a reputation for feel-good anthems, joyous live shows, and a growing loyal fanbase, this stadium date cements their status as one of the UK’s most exciting live acts.
