Kings of Leon have released their tenth studio album, O My Beloved – and London gets the first chance to hear it live. On Tuesday 10 November the Followills play a one-off, UK and European exclusive show at the new British Airways ARC at Olympia London, a 3,800-capacity room that is tiny by their standards.

The new record is a turn inward: quieter, more acoustic and more personal than the stadium rock of Sex on Fire and Use Somebody, with songs about family, looking back and growing up.

The Olympia show: can you still get in?

Tickets for Tuesday’s gig started at £95 plus fees. They went on general sale through AXS on Friday 30 October, after an American Express presale. If it has sold out, check AXS for official resale rather than buying from strangers on social media.
