J Cole Kicks Off Two-Night London Run at the O2 Arena
Rapper J Cole opens the first of three London dates on his Fall-Off World Tour at the O2 Arena on 19 October 2026, performing a 29-song setlist with doors from 18:30 and the show expected to start between 20:30 and 21:00.
J Cole began his highly anticipated London residency at the O2 Arena in North Greenwich on Sunday 19 October 2026, the first of two back-to-back nights (19 and 20 October) with a further date on 2 November as part of his Fall-Off World Tour — his first solo headline tour in five years following the release of his seventh studio album. Doors opened at 18:30, with Cole expected on stage between 20:30 and 21:00 and the show concluding around 22:30, in line with the venue's 23:00 curfew. The full 29-song setlist draws from across his discography. No official support acts were announced, though surprise opening performers featured at several US dates on the tour. Tickets for the 19 October show started at £78, with resale prices from around £133. The O2 is served by North Greenwich station on the Jubilee line. Fans were advised that both shows were sold out through official channels and to use only authorised ticket vendors. The London dates represent the centrepiece of Cole's European leg and are among the highest-demand concerts of the autumn season in the capital.
