Diljit Dosanjh headlined Wembley Stadium on September 12, becoming the first Punjabi artist to do so, according to Live Nation, which promoted the show. The concert sold out in under 48 hours, the promoter says. During the performance, Dosanjh announced a new date at Narendra Modi Stadium in Ahmedabad, India, on November 21, 2026, described in the announcement as the world’s largest stadium.

The Wembley show is part of the AURA World Tour, whose UK/EU leg wraps this week with stops in Birmingham on September 18 and Manchester on September 20. The tour follows a North American run that Live Nation says sold more than 225,000 tickets and grossed over $32 million, including two nights at Madison Square Garden that made Dosanjh the venue’s first Punjabi headliner.

Dosanjh has racked up a string of firsts in recent years, including headlining Coachella in 2023 and becoming, in 2024, the first Indian artist to perform on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, according to the announcement. He returned to the show this spring for a performance of “Morni” that went viral. His 2024 Dil-Luminati tour was billed as the highest-grossing tour by an Indian artist, and he has since received his first International Emmy nomination.
