Swedish indie-pop sensation Lykke Li has revealed plans for a special London performance this summer, marking a highly anticipated return to the capital. The artist will headline a one-night-only show at Camden's iconic KOKO venue on Thursday, June 11.

This intimate concert will serve as a showcase for her forthcoming sixth studio album, 'The Afterparty,' scheduled to drop on May 8. The announcement arrives fresh off her recent appearances at Coachella 2026, where she delivered captivating sets that have fueled excitement for her upcoming tour.

Tickets for the London show will become available to the general public at 10am BST this Friday, April 24. O2 customers gain exclusive access to a pre-sale starting Wednesday, April 22, while KOKO members can secure their spots beginning Thursday, April 23.

The London date is just one highlight in a packed summer schedule for Lykke Li. She's confirmed for several major European festivals, including Roskilde, Way Out West, and Rock En Seine. Additionally, she'll join Wolf Alice as a special guest at their massive homecoming concert in London's Finsbury Park this July, alongside other notable acts like The Last Dinner Party and Rachel Chinouriri.

Further expanding her tour itinerary, Lykke Li is set to support Nick Cave & The Bad Seeds at Dublin's Malahide Castle and will open for fellow Swedish star Robyn during her Mexico City performances in September. This flurry of activity underscores her continued relevance and artistic evolution as she prepares to launch what she has hinted might be her final album, describing the creative process behind 'The Afterparty' as particularly challenging yet rewarding.
