Catfish and the Bottlemen played the biggest show of their career at Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, with James and DMA’S as special guests.
Catfish and the Bottlemen, winners of the Brit Award for British Breakthrough Act in 2016, played Tottenham Hotspur Stadium on Sunday 3 August 2025. The stadium billed it as the band’s biggest show yet.
Van McCann and Billy Bibby began playing guitar together in 2007 at Bibby’s parents’ bed and breakfast in Llandudno, Wales. Benji Blakeway soon joined on bass as the third founding member.
Their debut album, The Balcony (2014), reached the UK top ten and went platinum. The Ride followed in 2016 and went straight to number one in the UK.
The show came after several quiet years, with line-up changes and cancelled comeback dates before the band returned in 2024. By then they had headlined Reading and Leeds for a second time.
McCann opened the set with “Longshot” and followed it with “Kathleen”. On the same evening, Oasis played Wembley Stadium across the city.
James, the Manchester band behind “Sit Down” and “Laid”, and DMA’S, a rock band from Sydney, played as special guests.
