Saint Levant has announced Glasgow, Manchester and London shows for January 2027, bringing his cabaret-inspired production, Layali Al Afandi, to the UK.
The Palestinian singer-songwriter’s Afandi World Tour places live music within a narrative performance formed by storytelling plus stage design.
Drawing on Levantine cabarets of the 1990s and Beirut’s nightlife, the show explores the music, fashion and artistic identities that helped shape contemporary Arab popular culture.
That reference point gives the production a clear creative direction: the stage setting and narrative form part of the performance alongside the songs.
Produced by Live Nation, the tour opens in Dublin on 29 October, travelling across Europe before dates in Casablanca, Athens, Istanbul and Muscat. The UK run begins at SWG3 Galvanizers in Glasgow on 18 January, followed by Manchester’s O2 Ritz on 20 January and London’s Eventim Apollo on 21 January.
Born Marwan Abdelhamid, Saint Levant broke through with 2022’s Very Few Friends, blending Arabic, English and French in his music.
