Celebrated British post‑punk legends Chameleons (formerly The Chameleons) will play their final festival appearance of the summer on 23 August, delivering a mainstage set at Beautiful Days festival at Escot Park, Devon. A day later, the group will record their latest BBC 6 Music session, broadcast live on the Riley & Coe show from 9 pm.
The band commence an extensive autumn European run in mid‑October as they continue to promote their widely acclaimed record Arctic Moon, released in September 2025 under Metropolis Records. Beginning with five UK dates featuring special guest Lol Tolhurst (performing The Songs Of The Cure), the tour then includes shows in France, Spain, Italy, Hungary, Austria, Croatia, the Czech Republic, Germany, the Netherlands and Luxembourg.
Chameleons return to the UK in early December to host their annual homecoming event, Home Is Where The Heart Is 2026, held over 4–5 December at New Century Hall, Manchester. The first night features a full electric performance with B‑Movie and Kahula as support acts, while the second night presents a unique orchestral collaboration with live strings performed by the Manchester Camerata, alongside special guests Patrick Fitzgerald and Evi Vine.
They conclude the year with a return visit to London for a show at the Roundhouse on 13 December, appearing as special guests of New Model Army. Link
