Five-time GRAMMY Award-winning global icon Shania Twain has announced a major run of outdoor shows across the UK and Ireland for June 2027, including headlining State Fayre, the UK’s largest music and BBQ festival, on Saturday 19 June.

The eight-date run begins at Scarborough’s Open Air Theatre on 16 June, before Shania heads to Glasgow Summer Sessions at Bellahouston Park, State Fayre Festival in Chelmsford, Cardiff’s Blackweir Fields, Live at Powderham in Exeter, Dublin’s Marlay Park, Belsonic in Belfast and finally culminating at Oxfordshire’s Blenheim Palace Festival on 29 June.

Tickets go on general sale on Friday 6 November at 9am.

The announcement follows the release of Little Miss Twain – The Places I’ll Go, the deluxe edition of Shania’s acclaimed seventh studio album, Little Miss Twain. Released this July, Little Miss Twain marked a significant and deeply personal chapter for Shania. After more than three decades as one of the most successful and influential artists in music, the global superstar turned back to the beginning, revisiting the experiences, sounds and memories that shaped her before the world knew her name.

Drawing from her childhood and teenage years growing up in Canada, the acclaimed album traces the roots of her singular sound across country, pop, rock, soul and bluegrass, offering a revealing portrait of the influences behind an artist who would go on to reshape the boundaries of country and pop music. The album also features an exceptional lineup of collaborators, including Tanya Tucker, T Bone Burnett, Ronnie Wood, Josh Homme, Ray Parker Jr., and Toto’s David Paich. With Little Miss Twain – The Places I’ll Go, Shania expands that story, offering an even deeper look at the formative experiences and musical influences behind both the artist and icon she would become.

Also recently released was the audiobook of Shania’s 2011 memoir, From This Moment On, now available with narration from Shania herself. The bestselling book traces her tumultuous rise to stardom and features a new foreword with personal reflections on her journey.

Shania’s influence remains as far-reaching as ever. In 2027, she will celebrate the 30th anniversary of Come On Over and the 25th anniversary of Up!, two era-defining albums that transformed country and pop music, broke barriers around the world and cemented her status as a global icon. With a huge run of live dates in 2027, and a biopic chronicling her life and career also in development, Shania continues to look ahead while celebrating the music and milestones that have defined her extraordinary career.

Zach Top wrapped his Cold Beer & Country Music Tour Friday night (Oct. 30) with a sold-out show at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena, closing a run that has sold 921,820 tickets since it launched. The more-than-two-hour performance featured songs from across Top’s two albums, along with special guests Brandon Coleman of The Red Clay Strays and Lukas Nelson.

Opening with “Sounds Like the Radio,” Top performed his current and RIAA Gold-Certified single “South of Sanity” alongside the 4× Platinum “I Never Lie” and Platinum-certified favorite “Bad Luck.” The Nashville crowd kept the energy high throughout the night, calling for more as Top brought the tour to a close.

“I started coming to this town in 2018. Kept my head down, it was close to five years or something, just writing songs and wishing to God I could go out and play some shows and that some people would show up and wanna hear me sing the songs that I’ve been writing. Roughly two and a half, three years ago, that started happening. It’s been a wild ride ever since then,” Top told the crowd. “And I can’t thank each and every one of you enough for being here tonight and making a youthful hillbilly from Sunnyside, Washington’s dreams come true. Thank you so much.”

The Tennessean praised that “Top didn’t need the lights flashing through stage smoke to hold the room. His rich, commanding voice did that, moving effortlessly from a warm baritone to a soaring falsetto without losing an ounce of country grit. And when he dug into his guitar, it was clear his hands could keep up.”

The evening also featured performances of “That’s All” and “Use Me” with reigning CMA Vocal Group of the Year band leader Brandon Coleman of The Red Clay Strays.

The tour’s conclusion caps a landmark stretch for Top, whose Ain’t In It For My Health won Best Traditional Country Album at the 68th GRAMMY Awards, becoming the inaugural winner in the category. As the reigning New Artist of the Year winner, he heads into the upcoming 60th Annual CMA Awards with nominations for Album of the Year and Male Vocalist of the Year. Top will headline the 2027 Stagecoach Music Festival.

Fans can see Top live once more on YouTube tonight, Sunday, November 1, as he performs ahead of the premiere of his concert film, Zach Top — Live From Red Rocks: The Concert Film, presented by Kimes Ranch, live beginning at 6 p.m. CST / 7 p.m. EST.

Zach Top’s Cold Beer & Country Music Tour setlist, Friday, October 30, 2026: “Sounds Like the Radio,” “The Kinda Woman I Like,” “Lonely for Long,” “South of Sanity,” “Guitar,” “Beer for Breakfast,” “Seminole Wind” (John Anderson cover), “Other Side of Hurtin’,” “Bad Luck,” “When You See Me,” “Good Times & Tan Lines,” “Big Mon” (Bill Monroe cover), “In a World Gone Wrong,” “Cowboys Like Me Do,” “Freeborn Man” (Keith Allison cover), “Use Me” (with Brandon Coleman of The Red Clay Strays), “That’s All” (Genesis cover, with Brandon Coleman), “She Makes,” “Last Thing I Needed First Thing This Morning” (Willie Nelson cover, with Lukas Nelson), “Busy Doin’ Nothin’,” “Good Girls & Cowgirls,” “Tightrope,” “Justa Jonesin’,” “9 to 5” (Dolly Parton cover), “There’s the Sun,” “I Never Lie” and “Cold Beer & Country Music.” Encore: “I Know a Place,” “Two Dozen Roses” and “Things To Do.”

Dubbed “the future of country music” by Billboard, Zach Top is in the midst of a landmark year with two nominations at the upcoming 60th Annual CMA Awards: Album of the Year (Ain’t In It For My Health) and Male Vocalist of the Year. The nominations follow wins for Best Traditional Country Album at the 68th GRAMMY Awards (Ain’t In It For My Health, the inaugural winner in the category), New Artist of the Year at the 59th CMA Awards and New Male Artist of the Year at the 60th ACM Awards. The Sunnyside, Washington, native earned his first No. 1 at country radio with “I Never Lie” and will headline the 2027 Stagecoach Music Festival. His Cold Beer & Country Music Tour sold 921,820 tickets, concluding with a sold-out performance at Nashville’s Bridgestone Arena.
