The Romantic: A Long-Awaited Return
Marking his first solo project in ten years, Mars revealed that his new album, titled 'The Romantic', is scheduled for release on 27 February 2026. The news ends a prolonged wait for new material from the multiple Grammy Award-winner, whose last solo album, '24K Magic', dropped in 2016.
To whet appetites, the lead single 'I Just Might' has been released immediately. This move signals a major comeback for one of pop music's most celebrated performers, promising a fresh chapter in his illustrious career.
Stadium Spectacle: The Romantic Tour Hits the UK
Accompanying the album announcement is the reveal of 'The Romantic Tour', Mars's first-ever headline stadium run. The tour kicks off on 10 April 2026 in Las Vegas and will traverse the globe.
For British fans, the highlight is a massive six-night residency at London's iconic Wembley Stadium. The shows are set for 18, 19, 22, 24, 25, and 28 July 2026. The support bill features notable names, with Anderson .Paak appearing as "DJ Pee. Wee" and singer-songwriter Victoria Monet.
