UB40 feat. Ali Campbell

Event Info

Fuelled by the voice that powered UB40 to 70 million record sales and over fifty UK chart hits, Ali Campbell is again bringing some much-needed reggae cheer into the world as he brings the latest incarnation of his extraordinary band to Utilita Arena Cardiff on Wednesday, 9 December 2026.

‘I think I’ve got the best reggae band in the world, and you can quote me on that,’ he says. ‘They are all seasoned musicians, who have spent all their lives in professional bands, and I feel so confident with them. We can play in the UK, Africa or an island like Fiji, and people will be buzzing afterwards. The past few years have been tough for a lot of people. There’s a lot of darkness in the world. I’ve lost close friends long before their time. But life goes on, and this group seems to leave a good vibe wherever we play.’
