David Guetta will bring Monolith to London's The O2 on Saturday, June 5, 2027, joining the arena's 20th anniversary programme. Announced on September 28, the concert is billed as his biggest London headline show to date and adds a major electronic music event to the anniversary season.

The production has already visited Germany, Belgium and Portugal. Its recent stadium appearances include three nights at Stade de France in June 2026, with more than 240,000 tickets sold across that run. Those performances provide a sense of the touring scale behind the new London booking.

Tickets and an anniversary summer

Priority access for O2 and Virgin Media broadband customers is scheduled to begin through the Priority app at 10 a.m. on September 30. General ticket sales are scheduled for 10 a.m. on October 2. Both times are local to London, a useful distinction for anyone making plans from another country.

The arena opened in June 2007, making next summer's programme a celebration of two decades of live entertainment. Guetta joins an anniversary line-up that includes Maisie Peters, Sombr and Jorja Smith. The mix gives the season a range of musical styles, with Monolith representing its electronic headline offering.

AXS is the venue's official ticketing partner. Tickets bought through the arena or AXS are displayed on a phone using The O2 app, with purchasers receiving information about AXS Mobile ID. Checking those instructions ahead of the journey will help fans prepare for entry on the night.

Pop collaborations and club roots

Guetta's career spans two Grammy wins and collaborations with Rihanna, Nicki Minaj, Justin Bieber and Sia. Alongside the pop-facing hits, he has developed Future Rave with Morten and released music through his Jack Back alias. That combination connects the London event with several different strands of his work.

His touring calendar also moves between settings, from Monolith's stadium appearances to Ibiza residencies at UNVRS and Ushuaia. Bringing a touring production into an arena changes the physical setting while retaining the central attraction: an evening built around Guetta's music and the shared experience of a live crowd.

His collaborations have also returned to the stage in memorable ways. At Ultra Music Festival in Miami on March 28, 2025, Guetta, Sia and Afrojack performed "Titanium" together for the first time. The song originally arrived in 2011; Sia also performed their newer collaboration "Beautiful People" during the festival appearance.

The emphasis on concert scale connects with our earlier coverage of Lady Gaga's free concert at Copacabana Beach. An open beach and a ticketed London arena create very different experiences, but both show how the setting becomes part of a major musical occasion. For Guetta, the anniversary booking gives Monolith a new London setting in 2027.
