Jane McDonald Living the Dream 2026: Singer to perform in these two Yorkshire cities for her new tour
National treasure and singer Jane McDonald will be travelling across the UK for new 2026 tour Living the Dream - and two of the cities will be in Yorkshire.
Jane McDonald has announced her new UK tour Living the Dream for 2026 as well as her new album.
In support of the tour, Jane, who hails from Wakefield, will be releasing her new album of the same name as her tour next spring which was recorded in Nashville at the Blackbird Studios.
Living the Dream is Jane’s 11th studio album and presents her nod to the country genre unveiling her passion for the music with nine original songs and four reworkings of country classics.
The album is available to pre-order from now on Jane’s official website which will give fans exclusive access to the tour pre-sale. The tour goes on general sale at 10am on Friday, November 28, 2025.
Jane McDonald won the hearse of the nation when she appeared in the BBC documentary soap The Cruise in 1998.
She has since sold out many tours and concerts, including the Royal Albert Hall, The London Palladium and The MGM Grand in Las Vegas, while also releasing 10 studio albums.
Jane is a presenter for TV travel shows, including the BAFTA-Award-winning Channel 5 series Cruising with Jane McDonald, along with appearing many times with her best friend Sue Ravey on Celebrity Gogglebox.
During her upcoming Living the Dream tour, Jane will be stopping off at Sheffield Utilita Arena on September 23, 2026, and First Direct Arena in Leeds on September 26, 2026.
Jane said: “It’s true, I am officially Living The Dream so what better way to celebrate that than with a new album and a new tour.
“I love Country music and I love partying with you so I want to bring that together by bringing you some exciting new music along with the songs you know and love. We had brilliant fun on the last tour and we’re stepping it up a notch this time to visit even bigger venues so buckle up and let’s make even more memories together.”
Last year she was on the road with her With All My Love Tour performing to sold out theatres and arenas across the UK, and she also performed in the London Palladium’s Christmas panto.
In between touring, she has also written three bestselling books about her life, the most recent being last year’s Sunday Times Bestseller Let The Light In.
In spring of 2026, Jane will also present a two-part documentary on Channel 5 following her journey to Nashville to make the album and learn more about the iconic home of country music.
