The Cure’s Robert Smith Curates All-Star 2026 Teenage Cancer Trust Gig Line-Up: My Bloody Valentine, Garbage, Placebo & More

Robert Smith leads a week of concerts and comedy at Royal Albert Hall to raise funds for Teenage Cancer Trust, featuring legendary and top contemporary artists across seven nights.

  • On Monday 23 March Robert Smith will curate a week of Teenage Cancer Trust concerts at Royal Albert Hall, running to Sunday 29 March 2026, with tickets on sale at 9am on Friday December 12.
  • After Sir Roger Daltrey stepped down in 2025 following more than 20 years, Robert Smith was named earlier this year to curate the 2026 Teenage Cancer Trust concerts, which fund specialist nurses and youth workers.
  • Headliners include Elbow, Mogwai, Manic Street Preachers, My Bloody Valentine, Garbage and Wolf Alice, and Robert Smith’s Comedy Favourites features Jack Dee, Maisie Adam, Bridget Christie, Stewart Lee and Dara Ó Briain.
  • Given the shows typically sell out, the concerts aim to raise essential funds for Teenage Cancer Trust, with Shirley Manson and Guy Garvey praising the charity and urging Londoners to secure tickets early.
  • Smith, who played TCT in 2006 and 2014, said he was proud to be 'Cureator' and hinted at The Cure's plans for new material and their 50th anniversary.
