Chesney Hawkes Returns With Emotional 2026 Tour:Smash It To Pieces
Let me tell you something exciting—Chesney Hawkes is back , and he’s not just dipping his toes in nostalgia. He’s diving headfirst into one of the most meaningful and electrifying chapters of his career with the newly announced Smash It To Pieces UK headline tour in 2026. And honestly? It’s shaping up to be something really special.
We all remember Chesney for that unforgettable 1991 anthem The One and Only —a track that made him a household name. But now, more than three decades later, Chesney is showing the world that he’s much more than a one-hit wonder. After a whirlwind 2025 filled with personal and professional milestones, he’s riding high on the success of his critically acclaimed album Living Arrows , and bringing that momentum straight to the live stage next spring.

This isn’t just another reunion tour. It’s a full-blown comeback built on reflection, growth, and pure passion for music. Living Arrows , which landed him a BBC Radio 2 Album of the Week and charted in the UK’s Top 10 across several categories—including vinyl and downloads—is a deeply personal record. It's steeped in themes of grief, resilience, and hope. One particularly moving aspect? The tour’s title is taken from the opening lyric of Live Forever , a track inspired by the final words of Chesney’s best friend, Vic.
And trust me, Chesney isn’t taking this lightly. After lighting up venues on his Live in 25 tour and supporting James Blunt across Europe, he’s now set to perform in even more cities, with even bigger energy. Expect a mix of fan favourites—yes, you’ll definitely hear The One and Only —alongside powerful new songs like Fall Into The Sun and LOUD! . Plus, you never know what surprises might make it onto the setlist.
What really makes this tour extra heartfelt is the family aspect. His brother Jodie is on drums, and his son Indiana joins him on guitar. That connection brings something authentic to every performance—like you’re watching a celebration of life, love, and legacy unfold on stage.
And if you’ve been watching Celebrity Big Brother this year, you’ll know Chesney’s charm isn’t just limited to the stage. His runner-up finish reminded a whole new generation of fans why he’s always been a beloved figure—relatable, genuine, and full of life.
So if you’re thinking about grabbing tickets—do it. From Norwich to Manchester, Glasgow to Exeter, this tour isn’t just a show. It’s a testament to endurance, to rediscovery, and to the power of music to heal and connect. Smash It To Pieces isn’t about breaking down; it’s about breaking through.
This isn’t just a guilty pleasure anymore. Chesney Hawkes is a national treasure—and 2026 is his moment to shine.
